Description

My name is Ingrid Ericson and I am a down-to-earth girl with an energetic love for the natural life.

I've grown up in the beautiful county Skåne in the south of Sweden and not only has my life here provided me with a safe space to learn and grow, but it has also given me the tools to unlock and remember our innate connection with nature. Since my spiritual awakening/remembering my mission in this life has become clear. I have always felt a strong connection with nature, been free-spirited and gone my own way, but during this awakening these feelings were elevated to a much higher level. I view this Earth with an unconditional love. I am on a journey to deepen my relationship with our magnificent planet as well as spread as much light and love around me as possible. In other words, I am stepping into my highest self during this shift that we have entered.

Infinite wisdom, ancient knowledge, love and abundance is key to reconnect with a peaceful and natural way of life. The importance of knowing how to nourish ourselves with local organic produce, wild food and natural remedies is something that deeply aligns with my values. I am passionate about organic farming, organic living and the healing of ourselves and our planet. As well as the beauty of passing it on to future generations. Be the ancestor your descendants would want to learn from. The new era is here.

I am very creative, playful and can often be found painting magical woodland creatures with my watercolours, writing magical stories, singing (all the time), reading, listening to folky music, baking, cooking and crafting. I am always open to new experiences, adventures and love to explore mossy forests with my walking stick. I have a love for the English language and culture (would definitely call myself an anglophile), historic buildings, travel, marine biology, literature, art and illustration, eco medecine/herbalism, rewilding, singing, holistic living etc. Creative activities, yoga and medetation are part of my day-to-day life as well as my belief in always seeing the positive in every situation.

More details about your skills

I have always been a "long-list person" meaning there are more things that intrest me than there are things that do not: and this has naturally affected me, the skills and passions I've come to have. I am somewhat of a Jack of all trades and when I encounter something that I do not yet know how to handle, I learn. Going with the flow, and adapting to any given situation and seeing everything from the positive side is something I'm always striving to do.

I've been very lucky to have a wide variety of experiences during my childhood, and many role models to learn from. Other than my intrests and passions that I've mentioned previously, I can oftentimes rely heavily on my own skills in my day-to-day life. That includes everything from : cooking a meal, helping my cousins out with their young children, cleaning the shower, baking a birthday cake, writing a cover letter, making jams and conserving chutney, photography, sewing, crocheting a hat, playing the piano (and a little banjo), creating crafts outdoors, making natural toothpaste and deoderant, illustrating a childrens book, making nettle cordage and so on.

However, there are so many things that I have yet to learn and experiences that I've yet to have. I would love to get more into climbing, marine biology, foraging, nature conservation, organic permaculture farming, surfing, videography, ecological off-grid house-building, sailing, woodwork, astronomy, fishing and loads of other goodies.

Age

18

What else ...

I left the school system at age seventeen (just before last year in secondary school) to follow my dreams and it has been one of the best decisions of my life so far. It has given me more opportunities to connect with people and places than I could have ever imagined. I am beyond grateful for all of it. Especially when it comes to spiriutal/alternative communities and organic farms, the expansions have been unreal.

I've grown up with hiking, folklore, fantasy, camping outdoors and music with my father; while my mother gave me culture, theatre, baking, literature, art and crafts. Therefore I am fond of both these worlds and would be happy to share my knowledge with any farm of family I join.
