Teacher Bio
The island of Mallorca has a Mediterranean climate, and is now suffering record breaking droughts and heatwaves in an already aquifer-decimated, soil-eroded scenario. While soil regeneration is within my field of expertise, I have yet to design for larger-scale farming projects on the island. Having lived in cities for a large part of my life I am a great proponent of urban permaculture, too. I have been witness to the problems, and of course, they are the solutions, too!
You know what inspires me? The potential human beings have! Even on the bleakest of days, it is what helps me get up every morning! I am here for that, to support anyone who wants to do this, and enjoy the process!
