I am an ex-academic, ex-Londoner, ex-vanlife traveller, now rooted in a hectare permaculture farmstead in the mountains of Al Andalus. In addition to nurturing a 9 year old boy, and trying to hold space for the vegetables to grow, I blog about natural farming, permaculture, right livelihoods, vernacular Islam, parenting, unschooling, travel and #vanlife. I am a social researcher by trade and welcome new opportunities to apply these skills in the field of permaculture.
