ABOUT ME

I make great salad dressing and always try to help out with whatever needs doing. I'm easy-going and grounded and love sharing what I know and learning new things from others. Used to be a sea kayak guide, also worked as a project leader for Katimavik, as a natural builder/plasterer and as an organic gardener.

PHILOSOPHY

Compost happens.

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)
