Description
Hi there !
I'm Laura (34yo), coming from Belgium !

I am a trauma-informed yoga teacher, specializing in sharing movement as medicine - for holistic health. I am also a somatic coach and reiki healer+teacher.

I'm spending this year 2025 in Latin America to dedicate myself to meaningful projects : taking care of communities and learning harmonious ways to live with the earths.

and I'm looking to take part of projects that have to do with Nature and animals - with a profound sense of care.

Books and poetry changed my life in 2024, especially the writer Stephen Harrod Buhner who introduced me to the world of plant medicine, and the poet David Whyte who continuously invites to be in conversation with everything around us.

I am desiring to plant my hands in the soil and learn to listen to nature :)
I'm looking for learning permaculture and harmonious ways to be in partnership with the land.

Bit more about me :
I've been solo traveling since I'm 21,
spent the last 4 years in Asia (mainly Taiwan),
can help you out with website and social media stuff since I used to share my work online,
absolute dog lover
and am a total nerd.

I would LOVE to offer my services, to individuals (one on one) or groups, during my stay at your place.

I'd be happy to share more about me and my journey,
so don't hesitate to reach out and ask.

Warmly,
Laura.

Estuve 3 semanas en el proyecto de Javier y Catu; fue una experiencia muy interesante. Como ya se mencionó, Javier sabe mucho de permacultura y regeneración de suelos. Me encantó sentirme tan cerca de la naturaleza. El espacio de voluntariado es sencillo pero enriquecedor. La oportunidad de dormir a la altura de los árboles de maracuyá y papayo,… read more

Mi estancia con Juan Manuel y Juanita fue increíble. Sus personalidades son de un corazón grandioso, muy generosas y atentas. Me quedé un poco mas de dos semanas, y trabajé en el jardín - lo que me encantó, el lugar y la vista son muy bonitos. Cociné unas recetas deliciosas con Juanita (ella es un chef magnifica, siempre nos cocinaba platos… read more

I am so grateful to Yenny. She trusted me taking care of her cats while she was away, for two weeks, and then let me come back for another week (she ended up coming back to her place as well and I'm very happy we got a chance to meet and have some nourishing conversations). Yenny is a very caring soul, very empathetic. She has a very cozy space,… read more

Me quedé dos semanas en el lugar de Ana, fue una experiencia profundamente rica y transformadora. En el tiempo que estuve allá, Ana necesitaba ayuda con la realización de la diosa, hicimos mucho trabajo con el cemento, y también hicimos cambio en su jardín (landscaping). Me sentí parte del lugar (que es fantástico) y de la familia (con los perros… read more

What a two-week my stay has been at Francisca's !
With two other volunteers, Manon and Julien, we worked on the roof for a a good week, it was physical :)
When we were done with that big tasks, we had other light ones, very enjoyable, of harvesting fruits, preparing conserves for peaches, collecting oreganos and other food/huerto related tasks.… read more

It has been a couple of weeks she already left but my family still remember her very well.
She is very kind and keen to help if she is needed. We did a lot of farm activities from preparing compost and horse compost to plant seeds, harvest food and feeding animals. She also helped carrying wood, removing "bad" herbs and mulching the plant… read more

What an incredible 2-week stay I had with Mariana, Fran & Antón (+the extended animal family of the places - los caballos, Luke el perro, la gata, los patos, las gallinas... los pájaros !).
I just said goodbye to them but it doesn't feel like a goodbye - more like a "I'll see you again, and I'll be carrying you all in my heart !".
I'm so… read more

J'ai eu une très bonne expérience chez Danielle, chez qui j'ai passé deux semaines.

I am sooo grateful for this experience! I initially planned to stay only 10 days then kept extending my stay ! I felt directly at home. All the staff is so kind hearted.

Although Laura volunteered at our hostel only for 14 days, it seemed that she had been here for a long time as she always knew exactly what she was gonna do and what the next step was. We don't even need to worry about it which was really helpful.
She's sooo elegant, beautiful, polite and sweet. She's also very clean and we indeed like to work… read more

What a wonderful experience :) This workaway definitely felt like a home away from home ! The energies of the place are simply blissful. Everyone, from the staff, the managers, to the workawayers (we were about 10 when I was there) are super caring, easygoing and friendly. I was teaching yoga, english to the staff and taking care of a little… read more

I stayed about 10 days at the nunnery and had a beautiful experience there :) This opportunity of being part of a remote and peaceful sangha is a gift of trust and loving-kindness. Waking up at 4:30am wasn't hard at all, meditation was a pleasant routine, along with collecting the alms in the morning and arranging preparing the two meals of the… read more
