I understand english perfectly, both reading and listening. I am a little bit rusty on my speaking skills given that I haven´t practice since 2 years go, but I get familiar with it again after some days of constant talking nd listening.

About me

I am from Xalapa City, Veracruz, Mexico. I love outdors; my hobbies are hiking, slack-line and waterline, mountain bike, flag tag football, cooking home made foods. I like Permaculture as a way of living design to follow trough life. I have agroecological skills and know how to apply sustainable practices on daily life. I love to work with farm animals and have practice with chickens and rabbits. I love horses and know some care basics. I love to help people in farm projects, provide ideas and be usefull to get them done. My partner and I have similar interests and skills, He is a bioconstructor who have worked in many local projects; he is also a permaculture practitioner. We both want to know other initiatives around the world and get involved with people interested in producing food and goods by their own, in a way is not harmful to the earth as the current global practices are.
