Description

I’ve been a Nomad the past few years sharing my Skills, Talents, or an Encouraging Conversation in exchange for food or shelter for a few weeks to months, but I would settle longer if it felt ‘right’.
I’m capable of & have a passion for: designing & building ‘small space’ homes, &/or out buildings, remodeling; creative garden designs, food production, maintenance - pruning fruit trees, weeding …; odd jobs, & general work ‘Contractors’ just do not have time for.
I am also a cleaner, organizer & dish washer. 😊
I practice grounding through Service & believe Beauty Creates Love through these labors.
My Specialty, something I absolutely Love to do is take abandon Gardens & bring them back to a Beauty they once displayed.
For fun I’ve spun plant & animal fibers into thread then wove or knitted them into cloths.
I’m looking for a Gardening, or Organic Food Farm Community to exchange construction, gardening Skills, or understandings of life’s knowledge & Spiriutal experience in exchange for a modest living space. I wish to find a community - family of LIKE MINDED people dedicated to making the world a better place.
My preference is to stay weeks or months. I can also help teach English.

Gardening, Construction, Organization - Native English speaker!
I've been Gardening & Landscaping all my life, always had a reverence for nature's beauty working what ground I've been gifted to make 'It Better Than It Was' - My Motto!
I've found: Beauty Creates Love!
I've had businesses in Landscape Design, Installation, & Maintenance in many States of the USA, one being pruning fruit trees & grape vines in Southern Oregon.
I continue to make it my life's joy to be a hands on Land Steward accomplishing Gardening or farm responsibilities. Hand weeding is my passion, pruning is a favorite activity - Fruit trees, grapes, roses ...
I've worked with Chickens, Peacocks, Homing Pigeions, Rabbits, Cows, Pigs, Alpacs & other animals but Horticulture is more my gift!

What else ...

I'm a very Healthy non-smoker, no drugs or alcohol; conscientious, responsible, fit & hard working. I'm in a time in life to share what I know - work ethics, skills, interests, talents, understandings, or wisdoms. I understand benefits in slowing down, currently trying to practice that, but it's not easy.
Another aspect of myself: As a teen I almost died from a serious intestinal disorder and that changed how I viewed taking responsibility for health! That experience taught me in order to be vibrant & alive, I had to take care of how I viewed nurturing myself! The whole experience set me on a path as a seeker of truth, love, & contentment!
Now, right thinking and action (awareness) are very important to me!
