Description

Hi there!
My name is Christina, I'm 38 years old and exploring places, communities and opportunities throughout Europe. I'm open to longer term stays (up to three months) that are more about co-creation and living with aligned people and visions. Shorter stays are still considered, and essential to get to know one another and determine if there is interest and a fit for something longer term.

Living sustainably, growing our own food, being surrounded with fruit, having suitable shelter, and creating or maintaining a place that is a positive example of living within nature are my goals. I am a yogi and like to live a yogic lifestyle, while being flexible to other systems and ways of living.

I have successfully lived in community for 20+ years, lived off-grid, worked and volunteered as an organic farmer and contributed to permaculture projects. I love children, have lived with families and work with children in my work so places with families are very welcome.
I have some experience with natural building and interested in more (strawbale, wood or bamboo materials preferred but not limited to).

I have a lot to contribute and hope/plan to share that with people with the same intention, care and action. Building a cohesive place with interdependence, effective communication, love, joy, fun and autonomy is important.
Physically creating while honouring our spiritual selves, dharma (calling) and gifts is part of it for me.

I am interested in business, social and educational projects for youth or adults. It is within my line of work and I'm pleased to explore taking part while traveling.
Other interests: fermentation, Ayurveda, German New Medicine, Chinese Medicine, Eastern philosophy

Skills: cooking, regenerative agriculture, gardening, some building, teaching, yoga, facilitation, managerial and leadership, sales and marketing, retail management, business support, community development and building, heart-based leadership, childcare

Background: manager, leader, business owner, hospitality management, project manager, owner and facilitator of youth and adult cooking and food literacy programs, yoga teacher, organic farmer, teacher- alternative education and within public school system, forest school support, nanny, cook, food production, retail management

A bit about me and what I bring:
Dedication, healthy mindset and attitude, kindness, creativity, love, care, solutions and an open mind.
I value connection, learning and spending time with people of all ages.
Building and improving a home space is something I love to contribute to.
Cooking and showcasing high quality ingredients is a large passion of mine. I deeply value harvests because I know the work and energy that went into it. Feeding, sharing and receiving in reciprocity is all a beautiful part of community and connection building.
Strong leadership, from myself and others is something I highly value.
I am a 500h certified yoga instructor and yoga study and practice is part of my routine. Physical fitness, meditation, and some dance are also part of my typical regime. I love working towards a goal and bringing visions to fruition.

I'm curious, open, adaptive and community-driven. Nature, psychology, travel, health, spirituality, creation and food are some of my favourite topics of interest.


If this feels like a good fit for you, please reach out, sharing about you and your place/project (if not in your profile) and what drew you to write me.

Looking forward to chatting!

Thank you!

Christina
