Description

Hi, I'm Mikey (they/them)!
I'm travelling (mostly around Europe) and wanting to help out with community projects, learn new things, practice languages, share skills and experience, and meet good people.
I'm interested in community organising, co-housing, activism, leftist politics, mutual aid, DIY, sustainable agriculture, co-operatives... and many more things besides. I have some experience in farm work, building and handiwork, group facilitation... I love learning new skills too, and am a quick learner.
I also get joy from music, dancing, exercise (I love physical work!), and I'm a sociable person.
Je comprend assez bien le français et j'ai tellement envie de le pratiquer!
