Description
I would like to find a place to help out in the soil during 1-3 months a year sometime between oct and april and preferably learn more about permaculture on the way.
I love nature, to live simple, swim, plant, grow, walk barefoot,be close to or in the ocean, work with my hands outside, outdoor showers, meet new people, pedalbiking, drivng, eat fresh food preferably vegeterian/vegan and to have small projects on the go. Im happy to do most things except for cooking for others on demand :) I hope to meet new friends and to perhaps get an idea of creating my own space in spain or portugal in a few years. I have been working in construction for many years in sweden and australia but now it feel as its meant for me to do something else and I am very drawn to permaculture and to look more within then chasing new external relations, things, work etc. hope to grow with you :)

Marie came over to look after my cat and dog while I was going away for a couple of weeks. We connected immediately on WhatsApp video and I knew I could trust her with my dog, cat, house and car from day one.

I spent about two and a half week in January 2020 at Sandrines place looking after the cat and the dog (trying my best anyways :)) while Sandrine was in France.

Marie is a beautiful soul and a thoroughly invaluable volunteer. We would recommend her to any host because of her wide range of practical skills and her patient, gentle nature. Marie is strong and worked hard on the land and had many helpful tips for our little garden. We would welcome her back any time.
