Description
Hey everybody ,
my name is Lorenzo, i'm from Italy, 29 years old .

I'm really friendly and easygoing, i'm an adventurous person and like the wilderness nature.

I have an healthy lifestyle, used dance tango, used to play guitar, like to go trekking, swimming, reading ,I can cook simple, healthy meals (I'm really into nutrition stuff) and willing to learn something new.

Also after 3,5 years living in Australia my English has improved a lot and I'm happy to practice if someone wants to, i taught English for 2 months in SriLanka in a local community, furthermore I've good computer skills if that can be helpful.

I'm interested to improve my permaculture principles, how to slaughter animals (I'm not vegan...),techniques to be self-sufficient, how to grow mushrooms (not as a drug...), how to farm insects ( yes, chickens loves them...), how to live a more sustainable life and be connected with nature; but I'm also open to different and new experiences.

I'm interested also in construction using natural materials.

I also consider mental and body care to be really important..
Take care of your soul, body and others beings.

Back home i have some bonsai, grow some plants and fruit trees and always have my hand in the soil or doing something in the shed.

I have a wide work background from electrician, car mechanic, gardener and florist, permaculture and farming (which I'm most interested in), beekeeping , lifeguard and some hospitality as well.

I've also worked and volunteered in cattle and sheep station, organic farms .

I'm really tidy , organized , polite and respectful of others habits. No smoker nor drinker.

I have a driving licence, can drive motorbike and tractor.

I don't have any diet restrictions but i prefer not to eat dairy and gluten too often due to Hashimoto disease ( thyroid gland problems), this doesn't mean that i cannot eat those food.

If I've forgot something or you want more informations just ask me :)

Cheers, Lorenzo.

Lorenzo helped out at the museum for 5 weeks. He raked, mowed, pruned and built stone edgings in the garden. He cleaned gutters, painted and helped move heavy objects. Any task I gave Lorenzo, he happily tackled and completed diligently, without requiring any supervision. Lorenzo was also an ideal house guest, being clean, tidy and unobtrusive.
