Well, my name is Eric Sheffield, and I have been walking this earth for 20 years. I come from Washington, the evergreen, state. I have been working as a landscaper/gardener and trying to learn about sustainable farming techniques for the past couple years. And traveling a bit here and there, trying to see all there is to offer! I just started my trip in New Zealand for an undefined amount of time and looking for anyone who wants to explore!
