In exchange for hard work and good company, I seek knowledge, skills, experiences, and new people connections - harvesting olives and transforming them into oil. Everything needed before and after harvest, plus olive pressing.
I am a retired software executive now living in Sevilla on a NLV (non-lucrative visa) with my wife (retired Operating Room nurse). Originally from Canada, after university I was first a teacher in Nagasaki, Japan, and then forged a career in the software industry in Seattle and California for 25 years.
Two adult children now living in Los Angeles (fashion) and Montreal (high school English teacher).
I have volunteered on home construction projects in Baja California Norte, Mexico, for over a decade prior to moving to Spain. Familiar with collaborative, hard physical labor outdoors in heat/cold/rain.
I am happy, autonomous, easy going, task-completion focused. Love cats and dogs. Healthy and fit.

Algo mais...
I am mostly interested in learning about wholistic olive oil vertical: olive grove care and management, olive oil milling, and olive oil industry in general. Citrus, avocado is a bonus. Very focused.
I smile a lot and have a fairly deep bag of stories and life experiences - always happy to share, engage, and entertain.Mais algumas informações
