Description

I arrived in Australia a month ago with my working holiday visa, and I am actively seeking employment to save money and fulfill my dream of purchasing land in southern Chile to continue my project of permaculture, self-sufficiency, and ecology. I have been involved in this project for the past 10 years, which has given me knowledge in areas such as farming and construction.

I'm currently looking for work that aligns with my values and allows me to contribute to sustainable practices. I am dedicated, hardworking, and eager to apply my skills and expertise to make a positive impact.

Before embarking on my journey through Australia, I spent time exploring different places. Germany, France and Switzerland I have worked in General and specialized Gardening (pruning trees, preparing plots, growing food). In the field harvesting. In a hotel cleaning and preparing rooms.
Organizing manager of various educational environmental projects, I have been scout 13 years of my life, saves parks in elqui valley, Chile. Main manager of recovering a place to create an orchard and compost in university. Owner of a small company in Chile called Kuntur Pro in charge of healthy eating for outdoors athletes and educational environmental projects. Commissioned two years in a row of recycling in a massive event called "Roots of the Earth".

Volunteer in the first World Design for Change meeting in Europe with more than 2000 children from all over the world. FOR THIS REASON I am still traveling throughout Europe and learning about my past roots in this part of the world.

It would be an honor to meet you and help you in whatever you need!

Today is a great day!

Let me tell you that I have 10 years of experience living and working with crops, plants, soils, natural fertilizers, vermicomposting. I also have experience in building greenhouses and chicken coops, as well as pruning or tree cutting at heights.

Furthermore, I have experience in gardening and landscaping, as well as mud construction and recycling. I have the ability to guide large groups of adults or children. I am mobile, charismatic, and adept at problem-solving, thanks to my 13 years of experience as a scout and my musical performances in stages, restaurants, streets, and more.

Spanish is my native language, and I have a basic/intermediate level of English that I would like to practice and improve. In Chile, I learned to build a percussion instrument called the "Cajón Peruano" using wood and tools.

I completed my university studies in Administration in Chile and created a small company called Kuntur Pro, focused on healthy eating and environmental education projects.

All of my knowledge is fully available to be taught in any format.
