  • Description

    Hello ! I'm Eliot born in raised in Edinburgh, Scotland.
    Yet child of the world;)
    Passionate about , alternative ways of living, music , building , spirituality , ritual , playing music , singing , being in the outdoors in general.

    My life changed quite radically , when I was 15 from a football loving quite average Scottish teenager , to quite a Spiritual seeker! to fast forward and not go into details too much now for about 4 years I've been living and working in a big off grid retreat centre in mid Wales , 250 acres of incredible land waterfalls, temple building roundhouses and much more.

    I've learnt an incredible amount here, yet it's time for me to explore , learn from new experiences and meet new people.
    I look to continue my skills in building , carpentry , mostly alternative projects.
    If I like the places I stay and we both host and volunteer have a good relationship , there is possibility of me committing more to the project.

    Well let's see what happens !

  • More details about your skills

    Being involved in a number of Celtic Roundhouse style building projects in our valley in Wales and other projects in Ireland, I'm a capable builder of these style roundhouse building and other style timber framed buildings.

    I am involved in concreting , plastering, insulating , roofing , every single part that goes into the building ! though I don't claim to be an expert !

    At living on an off grid community where there is constantly so much to do, I've grown and learnt , general maintenance of the camp, building, running events and head cheffing or helping to cook for groups of normally 30 - 50 people but often 70-100 and up to 250 people, I am the camps main person for providing firewood with chainsaw , axe.

    I spent a year and 6 months working as carer, supporting people with Alzheimer's, schysophrenia, learning difficulties, etc.
    which was a very beautiful experience which taught me a lot of patience
