  • Description

    Since I was a little boy I loved to experience the nature around me and I was glad to grow up on a farm at my grandparents house. My dream was to have a farm when I grow up. The dream continued and since three years I read a lot about permaculture and agriculture in general. Then I realized that my knowledge must be put into practice. In my town I asked a farmer if I could borrow some land of him for a community garden. Together with my friends I created this garden with the idea of permaculture and we also founded a social club which includes four community gardens in our city and our vision is that the idea of gardens like this spreads out over our surroundings like a fire.

    So as you can see, my biggest passion is gardening and nature in general. Another passion of mine is literature. I have kind of an addiction for books and I also love to write. My vision is to write books about my journeys, about the things I've learned from mother nature and about love in general, because I'm sure our planet needs it more than ever.

    This year (2025), I completed my bachelor's degree in Zurich as an environmental engineer specializing in organic farming. Now I would like to put this knowledge into practice and learn from other farming enthusiasts.

  • More details about your skills

    2020 I finished high school in ''Wohlen'' with the specialization of pedagogy. Afterwards I worked in a day nursery as a cook for three months and so I was able to improve my cooking skills. Then I had a job at a primary school in Zurich as a class assistant. There I learned a lot about children and also about myself and what I want to change in our a system. And since March 2021 I work on a permaculture farm named ''Metamorfosis''. At this place there are about 1500 and 2000 different sorts of plants. Our goal is to regenerate soil and creating habitats. We also sell seedlings and all kinds of trees. Here I improved my knowledge about plants, especially about edible wild herbs. My biggest passion and greatest strength is vegetable gardening in general and in my free-time I like to edit videos, maybe this also could be useful for your place. Another strength of mine is to deal with all kind of people. I am very communicative and I love to support people in their passions.

  • What else ...

    On the list of things which I love most, books are probably somewhere at the top. I like to discuss philosophical, spiritual and political topics and what we can do ourselves to manifest a better and more sustainable world. For my own peace I meditate a lot and try to be aware and thankful of my surroundings as often as possible. On my trip I hope to meet people who can inspire and guide me on my spiritual journey. Looking forward to meet you guys!
