Description
Love nature, animals, art, music and everything in between.
Have experience in gardening and sanding/painting wooden structures, looking after hens, ducks and sheep. I am happiest when working outdoors, in or near moving water and when creating. Also when connecting with others, naturally.

French: BeginnerMore details about my language interests
I am fluent in English, being a UK native, I am also degree educated and have a TEFL Qualification (which I have yet to make use of). I've been learning Spanish on and off for almost ten years. I use duolingo, have been to evening classes and I have visited Spain a lot so have had many great opportunities to practice and improve my knowledge! I studied French at Secondary School, we had to pick either French or German. I have retained some of what I've learned.

More details about your skills
I nurture a lot of plants at the moment, something I started doing during my first volunteering experience, over four years ago. Plants give back what you put in to them, it's this reciprocity that I love. Mint is my favourite because it grows so abundantly and is great to cook with. I am also interested in foraging.

What else ...
I'm an Artist.
An artist on a healing journey, looking to repair my relationship with myself through connection with the land, my body and of course through various creative pursuits. I wish to learn about permaculture and simply be more connected to the flora and fauna of our amazingly diverse planet. I love language, skill sharing, deep conversation and silliness (in equal measure).
I make music too.

Allergies
Most Cats & Dogs, horses and other hairy animals (these allergies don't tend to affect me if the animals are outside - also it depends on the breed)) dust, pollen, glutenSpecial dietary requirements
It's important I don't have heavily processed wheat in my diet - sometimes I can handle foods with a low gluten content but usually it isn't worth the risk! For some reason I can eat the bread in Spain, Portugal, Italy and France without balooning.
