Description
hello, my name is Billie, having finished the theoretical maze of an anthropology degree, I am looking to find some presence and peace of mind enacting and taking part in a more alternative way of living (beyond simply speaking about it).
I am super excited to learn more about living with the land, enjoying being in nature, finding out more about permaculture and growing veggies and sustainable home building .
I am keen to live within a community setting and am happy to help looking after animals, kids or generally chatting and helping out in any way I can. -

What else ...
I am currently volunteering in an emotionally-exhausting context and I though it is both challenging and rewarding, I am looking for a different form of hard work (as a break/new chapter) where I can enjoy being physically tired within a relatively peaceful and compassionate environment. We are currently living geographically apart while Harry finishes studying so I would be looking for a placement for myself currently and perhaps Harry could join later.
We would love to help out in anyway we can with others who also want to live in a more compassionate and thoughtful way alongside nature and other creatures of this planet. -

There’s lots to do on the farm. The work is often independent so means a lot of autonomous working with some advice from Mario. … read more
