  • Description

    Hi, I’m Lydia. I like being in contact with nature. I’m a curious person who likes to be around others and work together. I think I’m easy-going and able to adapt easily.
    I love traveling and have visited many countries, mostly Africa and east-Asia, but always too quickly because of my job.
    After many years (30!) working in café-bookstore, I am currently in a transitional phase and would like to use this time to come back to my first passion botanic and vegetal topics. I took a permaculture course. I am building a medicinal garden in my village with fews persons. I’m eager to learn more about growing plants and to discover relationship between different cultures and nature.
    But I’m curious of many things. I enjoy learning by doing. I don’t mind getting my hands dirty. I like working both in a team and independently and I always try to bring respect and care into everything I do. I’m open to different kinds of projects and excited to learn new skills,
    I love reading, going for long walks.
