Description

About Maya:
Its been almost 7 years since I packed my bag and started traveling physically and mentally. Traveling has helped me expand my mind and interests, understanding I can choose how to live this life and that's part of what I would like to explore through volunteering with different individuals and communities. I have studied social and special needs education and beside my big love to children I am very interested in alternative education of all kinds and have been exploring that field in different places around the world. Traveling helped me renew my connection to nature and I enjoy spending my time amongst the trees, the bush, the birds and swimming in fresh waters and waterfalls. I am a very social person, enjoy good company and deep whole heartedly conversation but always make sure I have enough time for myself dedicated to reading, meditation, self reflection and self growth. I am passionate about health and the natural ability of the body to heal itself with the help of good nutrition and lifestyle. Using whatever grows around us as a remedy is also a big interest and something I'd like to learn more about. I see life as a common effort, not meant to be lived alone behind 4 square walls. I would like my life to be of sharing , of community and of coming back to our nature as humans as much as we can . This platform is a way for us to connect to others with similar views and intentions.

About Matt:
I’m keen with gardening, farming and all sorts of maintenance and landscaping of the land , always looking to learn as much as I can.
I enjoy working with all the elements, earth, stone, water, wood, fire, metal, electric and am especially driven to learn to becoming more self sufficient . I find a deep interest to collectively provide for the people, animals and plants around me, and build community as a core principle.

The questions ‘how, and why?’ Have led me into an abundant and fulfilling life, full of great people, in great places, having great experiences.
I like learning my limits and pushing them a little further, discovering as much as I can about myself in the world. Every time, I will choose quality of life over quantity, understanding that our connection to ourselves and the earth is an important part of being human .
