Descrição
I am living off grid in a beautiful stone barn in the middle of 2 hectares of countryside. It's close to the coast but inland. As I write this I hear the birds singing, the river gurgling past and the cow bells clanging in the distance. I'm trying to use natural building materials and permaculture practices on the land to limit my impact on the planet and make it a soothing, peaceful place to be and share time and experiences. Bit by bit I'm creating spaces to bring a bit of beauty and abundance to the place. It's still early days on the project so it's quite basic here. No bathroom yet, though the compost loo has a priceless view! It's bucket baths in front the fire / in the garden or bathing in the river when the sun shines. So natural soaps and sunscreens only please.
I spent a couple of years doing workaway and WOOF'ing on eco projects in Belize, Costa Rica, Canada, California and Texas. It's nice to have my own place and now be the host!Tipos de ajuda e oportunidades de aprendizado

I'm happy to share any knowledge I have about working with natural building materials and the land. What I love about permaculture is that everybody has their own interpretation and it has something for everybody, so we are always going to come together and share different aspects of it. I am a trained yoga teacher and massage therapist and have spent the last 7 years working in Diversity and Inclusion. This is a place of deep conversation, no judgement, curiosity and empathy. Really happy to practice yoga &/or meditate together, to play music together, share poetry and introduce you to the local community I've been building up.

I tend to flex what projects I'm working on based on seasonal priorities, as I write this I'm focusing on the veggie garden, tree planting and getting ready for earth plastering the kitchen. I'm quite flexible and am happy to adapt to your skills and interests so we both have an enriching experience.
Projects that will coming up:
* putting in a grey water system
* a pantry carpentry project
* back-filling and lime mortaring the outside walls
* earth-plastering the inside walls
* tiling the kitchen floor
* building a wood store
* expanding the water collection system
* creating tiered beds in the orchard
* tree planting
* wood splitting and storing
* building a second compost loo
* treating the wooden beams with linseed oil
I eat a mostly plant based diet with some locally caught fish. I'll be providing the ingredients, but it's always fun to share meal preparation and inspire each other with different approaches and flavours.
Looking for 4-5 hours a day, 5 days a week + sharing meal prep. We'll flex according to the weather, what's going on, mood and opportunities to share and grow!
Please bring clothes and shoes for working in. Sometimes we work with lime, or in areas with thorns, so you should be prepared for them to get dirty.Idiomas

I can host you in a tent with a comfy proper mattress, or in a cute little van depending upon the season / availability. There is lots of space for a camper van, or your car, if you travelling that way.
We'll share meal times together, starting the day with oatmeal/porridge/overnight oats and then we'll take it in turns to make lunch and dinner. I am currently really enjoying my breadmaker so homemade sourdough will be a feature of our menu!Algo mais...
I live near Llanes which is a popular place for internal tourism in the summer, because it is gorgeous around here. There are so many beautiful beaches and lots of hikes to do. It's along the camino del norte. We're not far from the picos de Europa.
I have a super friendly and very active golden retriever who loves belly rubs and long walks. I take him out for a long walk at least once a day and you're welcome to come with us and enjoy getting to know the local area.Mais alguns detalhes
