About Me

Almost two years ago, I was living in an appartment, on a street with neighbours, working a job I loved, where the core was pure and passion had it's place. Passion and life have brought me across the atlantic, to a venture into the moods of mother earth. Permaculture drew the last year's path and has found me lost amongst the drones, workers and larvae of a beekeeper's hive, at the foot of Cadair Idris. It has spied on me following the backroads to where a standing stone stood tall by his young neighbour, the electric post; It has found me cooking foraged sorrel fatayehs for fifty; and sat me down for a woman's circle at the heart of a thousand year old stone circle. By now permaculture is a basic truth, as well as sowing, bringing on, hardening off and planting out veg.

Right now I ammilking two beautifull goats, making cheese, and growing enough food so that excess can be sold at a local health food store; as well as preparing for a small theatre project, and in september an independent film.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I choose to couchsurf because of the stories. I think I have some stories to tell, and love to listen. I love that one will never forget a familiar face even after years.

I have been travelling across Ireland, Scotland and Whales for the last year, with the interest for permaculture and wildlife guiding my way.
