We're currently interested in visiting some places in the South of Wales, I myself am from Snowdonia and I have never even been further south than Aberystwyth !

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.

More details about your skills

- I really enjoy cooking vegan food and experimenting with baking
-I have worked as a childminder before, and am interested in a play-centred approach as well as forest school and spending lots of time in nature
-we are both keen on being outdoors and are happy to help building and repairing
-Harry is very practical and has taught himself how to make surfboards
-we both have a passion for pottery and lots of other creative activities, like lino-printing and painting
-I have recently been involved in some woodwork projects, making benches and tables, though still pretty basic, I would be excited to learn more
-we're not afraid of some physical and dirty work too, probably best for the soul anyway!

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.
