Travel information

I am currently

Description

I regard myself as affable, easy-going and dedicated.
Hobbies: yoga, chigung, hiking, cycling and surfing.
Non-drinker. Non-smoker.
Love animals, being in nature and making friends.
Dual Citizenship: South African and Greek (EU) passports.
My International Driver's License is valid until July 2028.
I have been in Europe since July 2025 and plan to retire in Greece eventually, but before that, I'd like to see a bit more of Europe, gain some homesteading skills and ideas and make friends. I would prefer a situation where I stay on a farm for a minimum of 2 weeks. Try me out... I think you'll find me to be easy-going. Living arrangements can be simple. I'm not fussy, but wifi is preferable.

More details about your skills

Despite my age (60), I'm still very fit and enjoy doing physical work in the outdoors. My handyman skills have developed over the past 15 years to include building, general maintenance, tree felling, gardening, beekeeping and painting. I have my work clothes and shoes, including my own beekeeper's suit. I was also trained in catching and releasing dangerous African snakes and alien plant eradication.
I graduated with a Bachelor of Commerce from the University of Natal in 1989, majoring in Economics, but these days I prefer physical work and learning handyman skills.

What else ...

Over the past 15 years, I've developed basic handyman skills such as gardening, tree felling, basic plumbing, fixing fences, painting, floor tiling, beekeeping and alien plant eradication. I've also produced and tested my biochar and gained some practical permaculture techniques such as making swales.
