More details about your skills
I attended a course in permaculture (PDC 72 hours) in 2021. Next to that I practice gardening and horticulture alone and in a shared garden. I do myself products for the body like cremes, soaps, deodorant , cleaners... I produce my own bread. More in general I try to live in a ecological way and my objectif is to have my own land someday, cultivating my own food and living as self-sufficient as possible.
About me: I consider myself responsible, respectful, I take work and my tasks seriously. I’m organized and clean.
I’m generally sociable and like to meet new people and listen to their stories. It fascinates me. But I also like my private space to charge my batteries. That said, next to the fact that I’m kind of a light sleeper - I would prefer to sleep in an indipendent room 🙏
To me are important a good and non violent communication. I understand and respect that everybody has their needs - it’s important to communicate them and find a good way of sharing quotidianity.
