Description
Hello! I have done a lot of work-exchanging over the last ten years and have found it to offer some of the most meaningful human connection and forms of trade that I have experienced. I am committed to building new ways to live together in a way that takes care of each other and of the planet, and working on numerous sustainable and ecological building and community projects has given me a lot of hands on skills towards developing those ideals.

I'm an interdisciplinary artist and work in various mediums. Some of the skills I can offer you are ecological site design and planning, farming, gardening, permaculture design, horticulture, visual art/design, music, performance art, writing/editing, wood and metal working, animal husbandry, community facilitation/mediation and working with youth. I have been teaching for over a decade as well in the arts and environmental education. Excited to connect with other creative people and hope to contribute to your community project! :)

Having Em around was an absolute pleasure. She was easygoing and open minded.
He helped us with many practical matters like setting up a yurt and shared some valuable insides about community living.
I hope we continue our workshop with her in the upcoming month.

I really enjoyed doing a work-exchange with this community! Both in the Chapel but also on their new communal farm. They were a lovely and inspiring group of people and I had such a wonderful time I am interested to return to continue helping them with future projects.

Em came at the beginning of winter to help with various things in the house and garden... preparing firewood, re-setting the compost, putting the storm windows in, cleaning and maintenance projects - and she also managed to fix a very tricky door with her excellent woodworking skills. She was a big help and a very sweet and enjoyable person to… read more

I loved work-exchanging with Hilde and Mischa so much! One of my favourite work-exchanges for sure. They were the loveliest of hosts and have created a true magical sanctuary on their boat. The variety of the projects was fun and the work expectations always fair. I loved their cats too and exploring the cool house-boat neighbourhood. Hilde is… read more

Emily arrived at the project just in time for a cold snap, which heralded the start of a particularly long and hard winter. We spent a lot of time finding ways to insulate the house against the coming cold - such as by putting up extra layers of curtain on the windows and sewing together quilts to make thicker blankets. Emily also built a lovely… read more
