  • More details about your skills

    I have an interest in gardening and have quite a bit of experience with that. I am knowledgeable in automated computer drafting, and have tutored for practitioners in various disciplines: Mechanical and Woodworking, for example. AutoCad is a program used widely and sometimes a little direct technology transfer can help a lot. I was at one time, a professional cake baker!

  • What else ...

    I am interested in different cultures, history and cosmology! I’m a life-long learner and have farmed, gardened and cooked wherever I have lived. I have studied earth sciences and psychology; language and mythology; and even went to art school in my youth. My background is in environmental technology with my BSc, and I have eighteen years experience with the municipality designing ponds, ecologic rehabilitation of streams and of course pipe systems and all kinds of drainage.
