Description
Hi, I'm Luka (1994)
In 2023 I graduated from a two year part-time studies of BioDynamic Agriculture.
In the future I would love to buy property in (south) Norway with my partner to live as self sufficient as possible. I'm interested in working with/caring for goats (and chickens too), as well as anything to do with fruittrees, fruit bushes, trimming/pruning/cutting/harvesting.
I have experience and passion for working with (biological) vegetables and have done some internships on small scale CSA gardens (Community Supported Agriculture).
In 2015 I graduated from art education, as art (specifically illustrating, making miniature art, screenprinting, etching, sculpture) is also a big passion of mine.
Unfortunately it's hard to find a steady job making art, plus my passion for gardening has taken over and I have found myself gardening past sundown wearing a headlamp more than once. I just can't stop!
I'm from Amsterdam, the Netherlands. My mother is Dutch and my dad is Croatian.
I found out I thrive best being surrounded by nature and having clear tasks.
I have a big fascination for insects, especially beetles. They can distract me a bit while gardening as I enjoy determining what species they are. But I'll try and stay focussed.
My partner and I have a couple of adopted cats that we love very much.
Ps:
I'm very interested in learning to build stuff, for instance:
Cob covered structures, dome structures, walls, houses from recycled materials, (tree)huts, how to put in windows or isolation etc.
As well as how to set up solar panels, how to build an irrigation system, building a greenhouse etc.
TEACH ME please!
