  Description

  I am Kadri (born 1990). Covid has thankfully helped me to move forvard with my life. I let go a lot, which i hold on before covid cut things off. So now i am creating new life and with that new off-grid living and working in my grandparents lands. There is nothing more than a land before i start in spring on 2021. So all needs to be created from 0 and this is something i also need help with. For me it is important to use as much as possible natural resources and do most of the things on my own and with friends, family and people who like to get experiences on eco-building and living.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  I am estonian and i can show the estonian way of living on a countryside. Also i cook traditional wood, also bake my own black and white bread ect. If we have some holidays turing the time, then to give overview of these traditions ect. And also i am willing to answer all the questions about our culture.
  
  Volunteers would learn about eco-building, all different skills depending how many days and when they stay and what needs to be done during that time.
  I am also a yoga teacher, can join in my few days a week yoga sessions if interested. Some weeks more and some less. Depending on a feeling, time and an interest of volunteers ect. But streching would be nessesary for your body while doing active work.

  Aide

  I am about to move to countryside and start building off-grid living and working houses (little holistic/yogic center). So all the skills on eco-building would be great (working with the clay and wood, light clay building, cordwood building, blastering, wood building, metall roof building).
  But most important of all the things mentioned before, it would be just important to have somebody who is really interested about working hands on and creating something new, looking for new solutions. All special skills would be possible to learn on a way, as i will do :)

  Hébergement

  Since there is an forest area right now and nothing yet. Then at first the living would be in the tents fro june there will be a hut to sleep and live in. Water comes from neighbours, also from natural water sources (a pond and a stream and little later we also build something to start collecting rainwater. We have compost toilet. Outdoor kichen using with gas and wood, i prefere to cook with as local products as possible and on a fire.. So as you understand, everything needs to be build from the 0. But all nessesary things would be provided. Also possibility to use sauna at least once a week at my parents house near by ect.

Possibility to go hiking and being in the nature Since i am previouse adventure manager, pre-covid time, then i know places and can lead many activities and also give advice, if you would like to go alone ;) Great bogs, lake Peipus with sand beach, old mining areas ect.
