Description

Hola,

Somos Francesca (Franci) y Franc, y en Octubre vamos a iniciar nuestra aventura por Sudamérica, donde nos gustaría poder colaborar con proyectos conscientes y contribuir al desarrollo de ellos. Los dos tenemos experiencia en vida comunitaria, nos integramos y adaptamos bien a las dinámicas de grupo, somos responsables con nuestras tareas y especialmente respetuosos. También hablamos Francés, Inglés y Alemán por si fuera de ayuda, y podemos ayudar en el mantenimiento de espacios, en huertos, construcción, cocinando, cuidando de animales, o niños. Sobre todo nos gusta aprender cosas nuevas e intercambiar.

Franci es de Italia, es terapeuta Shiatsu y profesora de QiGong durante varios años. Cuando llegó el covid cerró su estudio y en cuanto pudo trató de cultivar alguna de sus pasiones: la vida en comunidad y la permacultura. Desde entonces, he participado en varios proyectos en España, especialmente en Andalucía, ayudando al desarrollo de huertos urbanos en barrios pobres de Sevilla. En 2020 estuvo en GEN (Global Ecovillage Network) en Italia, y en 2013 unos meses en Findhorn (una ecoaldea en Escocia) donde encontró la inspiración para una nueva forma de vida alternativa. Además, después de seis meses como voluntaria en el monasterio budista de Plum Village (Francia), actualmente continua practicando y compartiendo la meditación.
Franci es terapeuta
Está abierta a intercambiar sus conocimientos de medicina tradicional china, masajes shiatsu y qigong.

Franc es de Barcelona, y también ha colaborando en proyectos comunitarios, sostenibles y urbanos, aprendiendo y descubriendo cosas nuevas de manera más significativa y consciente. Trabajó unos meses como voluntario en la Happy Farm de Plum Village, ha vivido durante un año en una pequeña comunidad en la reserva natural del Montseny (cerca de Barcelona), donde ha podido co-crear actividades grupales, eventos sociales y sobre todo, compartir mucho a nivel humano, mientras continuaba trabajando online como diseñador gráfico de software.

A los dos nos gusta hacer grandes rutas, practicar acroyoga, danza y contact improvisation, meditar, leer, dibujar, o cocinar.

Hi there,

We are Francesca (Franci) and Franc, and in October we are going to start our adventure in South America, where we would like to be able to collaborate with conscious projects and contribute to their development. We both have experience in community life, we integrate and adapt well to group dynamics, we are responsible with our tasks and especially respectful. We also speak French, English and German in case it is of help, and we can help in the maintenance of spaces, with gardening, construction, cooking, taking care of animals, or children. Above all we like to learn new things and exchange.

Franci is from Italy, is a Shiatsu therapist and QiGong teacher from several years. When the covid arrived she closed her studio and as soon as she could she tried to cultivate some of her passions: community life and permaculture. Since then, she has participated in several projects in Spain, especially in Andalusia, helping to develop urban gardens in poor neighbourhoods of Seville. In 2020, she was in GEN (Global Ecovillage Network) in Italy, and in 2013 a few months in Findhorn (an ecovillage in Scotland) where she found inspiration for a new way of alternative living. Furthermore, after six months as a volunteer at the Buddhist monastery in Plum Village (France), she currently continues to practice and share meditation.
She is open to exchanging her knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, shiatsu massages and qigong.

He worked for a few months as a volunteer at the Happy Farm in Plum Village, he has lived for a year in a small community in the Montseny nature reserve (near Barcelona), where he has been able to co-create group activities, social events and, above all, to share deeper at a human level, while he continued to work remotely as an interface software designer.

We enjoy hiking, practicing acroyoga, doing dancing and contact improvisation, to meditate, read, draw, or cook.
