Description

I am a 26 year old non-binary person currently living a nomadic lifestyle. My pronouns are they/them.

I am looking to volunteer my time at land based projects in return for food and accomodation. I am preferably looking for intentional community and somewhere that typically has a mix of work and downtime i.e. 20 hours of work per week, (5 hours a day).

I am keen to learn land based and sustainability skills in the realm of permaculture and DIY.

I have had experience living together in intentional community, co-creating space and sharing responsibilities to keeping the place ticking. I am a very good vegetarian cook and enjoy sharing meals. I love time spent together around a fire.

At my heart I am a creative soul who lives deeply in spiritual relationship to the sky, and the natural world. I work freelance as a practical astrologer I am often out stargazing and can offer guided sky tours. Having time to work on my creative projects would be wonderful and I would absolutely love to live with other creative beings and play together.

Looking for somewhere with wifi access so I can continue to take occasional client work and chair meetings for a housing project I am involved in.

I learn very quickly. I’m eager to expand my skillset. I have had a little experience working in community gardens, and a land based project in the UK but I am open to trying other kinds of labour too. I have had a lot of experience working with young people, international students and I am DBS checked.

I would appreciate hosts who are open minded, value community, and respectful of boundaries. I appreciate work cultures that support individual autonomy and capacity rather than place expectations that result in overexertion.

I used to be able to speak Spanish. Eager to brush up on skills.
