  • Description

    I'm half Japanese, half British and currently living in the Netherlands.

    Over the past few years I've developed an interest in permaculture and regenerative farming, and would love to see if it's something that can become a bigger part of my life.

    I recently quit my job as a full-time video editor to travel to Japan and get back in touch with my heritage, practice the language and eat the delicious food, and when I return to Europe, I'm planning to volunteer at different workaways to see if I'm ready to leave the Netherlands and start my own permaculture adventure somewhere.

    Outside of my work, my number one hobby is climbing (and bouldering), but I also love camping, surfing, hiking, and exploring nature.

  • More details about your skills

    I am a video editor by profession so this is my main skill.
    My camera work is less professional but I can use one and edit together the content nicely :)

    I have experience using tools for DIY so although I would by no means consider myself a handyman or carpenter, I can do general things around the house and I'm definitely very keen to learn and practice!
    Also not a professional cook but I enjoy cooking, and helping with cooking (as well as eating) :D

    I'll be doing a permaculture design course in Portugal in September, and have volunteered on some farms.
