  • Description

    I’m Nacho, 26, from a town on the south Atlantic coast of Spain 🌊☀️
    I’m really into sustainable living, from eco-building and natural constructions to growing veggies and learning more about off-grid life. I’ve helped out in a few small projects and love the mix of physical work, creativity, and community that comes with it.

    I’m a big fan of sports and anything outdoors: hiking, skiing, or a good basketball game. I love cooking (especially Spanish and Mediterranean food) and sharing meals with people. I studied Sport Science back home, and I’d like to become a PE teacher in the future.

    Last year I worked at a boarding school in the Swiss Alps, an amazing experience full of mountains, snow, and great moments with staff and students. Before that, I spent a year working in a hostel in Rotterdam.

    I’ll be in New Zealand on a Working Holiday Visa from December 2nd, looking to connect with people who enjoy simple, sustainable, and joyful living. I’m very social, love nature, and honestly, nothing makes me happier than some sunshine and good company
