More details about your skills
I have been a civil engineer for 5 years (in modern construction..) and I have helped friends building or renovating their houses, giving me some knowledge about it. I am currently helping families in France in their personal projects (permaculture, sustainable and ecological construction).
I know a bit about gardening but I really am a beginner doing this and I would love to learn more.
I can cook, it is my new job now, and it is always a pleasure for me !
I have no problem working hard when its needed.
I speak French, English and a little Spanish. -
