Description

Hi, I'm Mai. I live in the Copenhagen, but my family and I have had an allotment garden since 2007, so I'm used to all the practicalities of having a garden and a tree house to look after. In 2022, I rented a larger piece of land north of Copenhagen to create an organic vegetable garden. My parents have always grown their own vegetables and my father has been interested in permaculture for many years and has, among other things, created a food forest, which has inspired me to take an interest in permaculture as well. As I myself am very interested in working with the soil in ways that are not only sustainable but also regenerative, I have therefore been curious about how I could incorporate permaculture principles into my garden. In January 2023, I travelled to Orgiva, Spain and took a PDC (Permaculture Design Certificate) and now I want to learn more.

Since 2011, I have been working with sustainability in the textile and design field by sewing children's clothes from recycled textiles, being the shop manager of a sharing economy dress exchange shop, teaching asylum seekers how to sew from recycled clothes, etc.

In 2017, I completed a health counselling course and worked for five years in a health food store where I counselled people daily on healthy lifestyle, diet, herbal medicine and supplements. However, my main interest is plant-based food and herbs as medicine. My approach to health is holistic and inspired by Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine.

I'm very passionate about creating beautiful, tasty vegan dishes (and cakes) by using what's available and leaving as little as possible to waste.

Last but not least, I am a mother of two beautiful grown-up sons and am a qualified psychomotor therapist with a master's degree in educational psychology and further training in mindfulness.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I'm generally good at using my hands and therefore good at many kinds of practical work. I have a green thumb, I'm good at painting because I'm very thorough and precise. I'm also quite good at cleaning, tidying and organising so that rooms and areas are pleasant to be in. I have worked with textiles for many years and am good at sewing and repairing. I also love to cook - especially plant-based - food.

  Régime alimentaire spécial
  I eat plant-based, but I don't have a problem with others eating differently. I also don't have an expectation that my diet will be catered for.
