  • Description

    When I took part in a week of community life try out, I fell in love with it.
    I like being in nature and in a natural state of being, taking care of myself and my surrounding.
    I love gardening, animals, helping out in the kitchen... And in general anything with interaction from the heart, sharing & caring.
    I have a specific interest in edible weeds. I love to explore my environment and discover what grows and can nurture us.... how to work with the abundance of nature.
    I am open to learn new things, and learning from each other, to grow as a community.

  • More details about your skills

    Recently I lived for 4 months in a small yoga center in Spain where I took responsibility for the land : the irrigation systems, weeding, trimming trees, making the place more beautiful (f.e. by hiding hoses).

    I also invested a lot of time in the dogs: 2 energetic ones who could use some training and a lot of walks to channel their energy. Some people had troubles with their wild behaviour. After watching the dogs and people for a while, I could see and understand the underlying patterns. And with the help of other volunteers we learned them new behaviour: f.e. instead of jumping in your face to get attention, to go lay down at your feet. I could see the dogs got more relaxed, because now they got what they actually wanted: just some loving attention.

    I loved to jump in whenever there was something to fix. I am a creative problem solver. And I like to take some responsabilities, when I feel capable 😉 In the other case I love to be guided, or just follow the flow of someone more experienced.

    In general I am a very sensitive person and I am more and more able to use this as a gift by being open to the natural flow, and also taking my responsibility when I feel something is off, so things can be aligned again. I love open communication, loving understanding and respect for each other, and an open space for being. From this basic work can flow and enjoyed in cocreation.
