Description

Originally from Germany, I immigrated to New Zealand long time ago. Have been around Europe for a while. Now ready to explore more of Europe and other places...

In 2024 I am keen on doing more cob building, build with cordwood and other natural materials, working with natural plasters, earth plaster and tadelakt. Also interested in planting a food forest, planting trees, working in the garden, More permaculture, creative projects. I enjoy organizing and beautifying spaces.

I do like organic materials & shapes and those cute special beautiful objects made with love.
I deeply appreciate the beauty, magic & stillness of nature~ the simplicity of rural living...
Keen to grow my little yoga practise as well as meditation. Currently expanding my very basic crochet skills.

Looking forward meeting wonderful people...

and some more info about me...

It was in Aotearoa, New Zealand that I connected more deeply with nature.
First time experience of rural living, growing vegetables, having a lemon tree in the garden plus enjoying an abundance of fruits & nuts.
Living a pretty organic lifestyle with wholefoods, healthy nutrition, fermented foods, organic personal care and household products, made some cosmetic products.

Encountered and got inspired by permaculture, biodynamics, heirloom seeds, natural building techniques, sustainability, intentional communities, transition towns, holistic wellbeing,

It was wonderful being involved in starting and running a non profit little organic store, run by its volunteers.

in addition to what's mentioned already I would like to do more courses in nvc (by Marshall Rosenberg).
