About Me

***As I am not a big fan of the increasing mechanisation of this world, I prefer responding to messages instead of just pressing a button with "yes" to "no". So just so you know, my response rate of 0% is actually not correct. I'd rather say it's about a 90% - in real messages, not in button clicking :) ***

CURRENT MISSION

Becoming as self-sustainable as possible :)

ABOUT ME

Hi there! Currently I am looking for a different way of learning, away from schools, universities and the like. Curious for new experiences and knowledges, I'd like to get to know more about things that are at the basis of our life. Where does the food we eat actually come from? Certainly not from the stacks in the supermarket where I grew up to buy the ingredients of my daily meals. Not only am I very much interested in learning how to grow food, I would also want to learn how to do this in a sustainable way, without harming the growing environment and the plants. In the long run, I want to be able to live sustainably and in harmony with the environment myself. Also, being used to an individualistic environment, I'd like to get more accustomed to being more communal, to caring for one another and helping each other out instead of going for personal gain. Looking forward to meeting you!
