About Me

There was a life before and after... 🙂
I was a financial trading dealer in brokerage company up to one day when I decided to leave corporate job and start my life transformation.
I discovered permaculture principles and Bill Molison. I also got introduced to Ashtanga Yoga. I believe that those two things that emerged a vision in my mind that one day I will create a place where people will live in peace and connected to earth. Place in which damage to nature will be minimized, consumed food will be grown locally, and reforestation projects will take place.
For last year I volunteered in India at different permaculture projects, organic farms and communities. I attended 10 days Vipassana course in Kathmandu, which gave me a glance of the great affects that meditation can give you. For last four months I used to work at CSA farm in Israel.
Few days ago I arrived to Portugal with intention to contribute and volunteer for permaculture communities and sustainable eco- projects.
