Originally from England have been living in Australia for the last 6 years. I have worked in both the building industry and IT.

Whilst researching ecological building design I stumbled across food forests and from there I found Permaculture and from there I took my PDC in 2012.
Whilst living in rented apartment my initial activities were limited to experimenting with a balcony garden and attending courses where possible. I also volunteered with Melbourne Urban Permaculture, a group formed after the completion of the PDC.

I have now taken a break form the day job to WWOOF and travel to gain more hands on practical experience.
