  Description

  Hi I’m a person wanting to tread lightly and respectfully on our earth
  
  My Eco projects help to keep the wild rainforest intact and regenerate areas denuded for wildlife, for which I have had a number of grants as I am registered as Land for Wildlife, and to create a welcoming, sustainable human space close to that.
  
  I have based my life the last 35 years on 10 hectares of rainforest and forest and created a home, gardens, orchards, watering places, studio and cabin. Solar energy and harvested water.
  
  I’m also nuts about yoga and have held classes here and internationally as I also love to stay in other beautiful places
  I worked in Scotland and Morocco for a few years teaching English language, yoga and Eco sustainability.
  
  So here I am co creating with nature and loving it.
  
  Many helpers have stayed here.
  
  My current projects are weeding , citrus fruit ripening so harvesting soon, removal of vines and woody weeds on forest edges, mowing and brush-cutting and some home jobs --lots of glass windows to clean ..

  Possibilité d’accueillir les digital nomads

  Hi I have satellite internet. I worked from home myself for 2 years - ok internet connection. The workawayers cabin has Internet. Reasonable Internet use is OK. Heavy traffic on the Internet would incur a negotiated cost due to limited data download.
