We are interested in sustainable living, farming, animal welfare, childcare and teaching. Looking to incorporate more purpose, community and nature into our lives.

Description

We are a couple currently living at the North Carolina Coast, and considering relocating to a more rural area with more community, culture and nature. We enjoy travel, and are interested in volunteering as a way to support sustainable projects, explore new areas and meet interesting, like minded people. Josh is a trained apiculturist/field biologist with a well rounded, practical skill set. He has done construction, landscaping, commercial fishing, beekeeping, forestry, (organic) farming and marine conservation, among many other things. He has a natural talent for working with animals, and has rehabbed and raised many native, domestic and exotic species. We have both traveled, and I grew up in the Caribbean on a historic plantation and eco-retreat center; www.balenbouche.com. I also host workawayers, and I still work remotely for the family business and travel back regularly. I enjoy manual labor and am good at organizing and problem solving. As a tourism business owner I have done a bit of everything - management, reservations and marketing, housekeeping, maintenance, cooking, guest relations, event planning, gardening and farming. I have a degree in Economics and International Development, and am very passionate about teaching kids, and living more sustainably.
