Hello,

My name is Bart Geeraerts. I live in Jodoigne (Belgium) with my wife and my 2 children.

A year ago i was searching the internet for ways to simplify life and to live more ecologicaly when i came across Permaculture for the first time. After gathering some more information on the net i got more and more interested and then i found that Geoff Lawton was going to host an online PDC. Now that i've taken the course and graduated ican say that it's the best thing that ever happened to me and Permaculture is increasingly present in our family life.

At present i'm doing some designs for friends and i'm putting together the details for a "Permaculture introduction day event". Also it's my intention to teach PDC's in the future.

We are also looking into emigrating to Chile to set up a small farm and of course spreading Permaculture there in cooperation with other permaculture initiatives.
