Description

Hi there! ☺️✨
My name is Sara, counting 34 💫 around the 🌞.

I’ve spent the majority of my life living in cities (Madrid, Amsterdam) and making a living as a graphic designer. I increasingly became unaligned with my career and environment, especially ever since the pandemic hit. In 2024, I decided to make the big leap and return to my home country after 9 years living abroad, to explore new and unknown horizons following and trusting my internal compass. 🧭✨
Seeking an alternative way of living, away from the cities, and the capitalistic mentality. This brings me to be deeply interested in all ways of sustainable living, nomadic living, connecting with small communities, as well as means to be in deep and direct touch with nature as we are inherently supposed to, learning to protect as well as be provided from the land we take care of. I am really determined to learn everything about it: Permaculture and sustainable growing, botanics, mycology, foraging and medicinal plants and everything in-between.
My long-term dream is to establish and become a stewardess of a piece of land, where, alongside like-minded people, can enjoy our lives and thrive in harmony with our environment, focusing on our true potential while creating balance with the people, living beings and the land in it.
Making a positive impact, however small scale that may be. One step at a time 💪🏻🍀

More details about my language interests
I'm bilingual (Spanish and English) and spent 9 years living in the Netherlands, so I'm also somewhat fluent in Dutch on a conversational level. I would LOVE to learn Portuguese and Italian next, I also love Greek and Japanese. It would be lovely to do a language exchange with people interested! I'm fascinated by language, I think is the best way to know a culture and the way of thinking of a country, truly. It opens so many doors to the world!

I LOOVE animals and I have various experience taking care of animals, manifesting more opportunities to take care of them while learning from them! (they're such good teachers)
My line of work is graphic design and more specifically illustration －I would love to help with creative projects that involve fine and applied arts (think of murals, decorative art, workshops, you name it!)
I am self-taught about mycology and botanics, I have for now a humble knowledge and experience that I would love to deepen! － permaculture and sustainable cultivation, foraging, medicinal plants, etc!
I'm as well down my own spiritual path which I'm deeply interested in －Meditation, yoga, psychology, astrology, tarot... so many ways to learn about one self and our connection to the universe ✨
