Descripción
I just finished my MA in sociology, I studied communities because that's what brings me joy! I love feeling connected to a network of people who all contribute special qualities and skills. Right now I'm looking to learn lots about smallholding, bushcraft, and all the different kinds of people and places I can. I am looking to learn more about gardening and permaculture, as well as skills like building sustainable houses and structures for keeping animals, bees, firewood and the like.

I haven't had the opportunity to use my Spanish in nine years now so any opportunity to brush up on that would be great. I can also teach English to anybody wanting to learn.

Que habilidades tienes?
I have lots of experience in youth and community engagement and working with small children. (: Right now I am hoping to gain more experience in building (especially with natural materials) carpentry, and using tools, as I believe building together is how community naturally strengthens itself!
I know how to care for animals including horses, and I have experience with gardening and vegetable farming and I'm very much looking forward to learning more about growing plants.
I majored in English and Spanish in secondary school, I can help teach both languages to whoever is looking to learn. (:
I also give a good yoga/dance lesson if you're feelin froggy.

Algo más...
I love art and have a few years experience drawing, I can also mend and alter clothes if you have a sewing machine on hand. I am a really good interviewer and I interviewed musicians and artists for years so I'm a great conversationalist, especially if you are a music nerd! I'm a fellow writer to any authors out there looking for someone to bounce ideas off of, I love learning from storytellers and creatives in general. I am also looking to build my own home one day so any opportunity to assist with and learn about building and crafting for practical purposes I would be most enthusiastic about (especially with cob!)

Nicolas and Marion created such a joyous environment to spend time in nature and meet and learn about new people. The work was straightforward and easy to learn while also being interesting and skill building.

Mel stayed for a couple of weeks and was a great help. She was specifically interested in getting some hands on experience working with natural materials in building and renovation so the timing was perfect for her as I was making a start on replastering some internal walls with mud and straw. She has an inquisitive nature and a lovely personality.

Carol is an inspiring woman who will share anything you’d like to know about the local life, customs, and culture of Cherven. She was always very clear in her instructions and I felt my skills were quite refined after my time spent there- in gardening, the use of tools, and in building. I came there with a desire to learn mud building and after I… read more

My experience with Noa and Diego was filled with adventure, fun and laughter. They are very gracious and welcoming and placed value on my comfort as well as getting to explore the local area on hikes and beaches. They knew about local history, which was fascinating, and are both very creative so if this matters to you, prepare to be inspired! The… read more

Mel stayed with us for a month and was really lovely to have around. She was a joyous addition to our household and we enjoyed spending time her a lot, laughing together, going on hikes and just having coffee together in the kitchen.
She worked reliably and independently and didn't need much explanation for the tasks I asked her to do. I'm very… read more
