Biography
I never had a profile because talking about myself has never come easily. But I finally decided to write this — a collage of many conversations with interesting people who, in one way or another, helped me put into words what I feel.

Nature is not just a setting for me, but a way of living, building, and loving. Starry skies, mountains, tangible projects, and coherence all speak to me deeply.

In the Spanish Pyrenees, I am building a real life project: a simple and meaningful place, beautiful without artifice, to be cared for patiently and shared with truth. The values I grew up with fit naturally with permaculture: caring for people, caring for nature, and giving back what you can.

These days, there is more calm, more alignment, and more clarity. Not looking for someone to fill a void; sharing deeply is simply part of who I am.

Still romantic, but not weak. I believe in tenderness, honesty, complicity, and building something real together. No “other halves” — just people who enrich each other’s lives.

Finding the right person is harder than finding the place.

Hi @ll:

Honestly, it’s comforting to be surrounded by all of you. This feels like a conversation in the garden where everyone joins in and brings something to the table.

Food prices have gone up so much, and I think they’ll keep rising, because it’s just another way to squeeze and control us. So every time I see a plant producing something, I think: that’s a dollar plant. Seriously. It’s a way to save money, or simply not have to spend it in the first place, and that is something precious in a world that seems to understand only material things.

I truly love being able to read you all. Every day you add something new to this expanding brain of mine.

A hug!

I’m 5'9", so I guess I don’t qualify for the 6-foot club.
That said, I’m perfectly fine with it — humans come in all formats, and I’d say this one turned out pretty well.
For those who carry wounds, we could learn from trees in spring.

Someone made deep cuts into them, just to take advantage of a few moments of warmth. Raw, open wounds that seem to call for more cutting, as if healing required removing even more.

And yet, right there—exactly where I thought more had to be cut away to heal—they offer their first buds of spring.
They don’t run from the wound. They don’t hide it. They keep living, keep growing, responding with life where there has been rupture.

Maybe healing isn’t always about cutting more, but about allowing spring to return.
A lot of mosquito control is really predator management. Mosquitoes usually explode where there are small stagnant breeding spots with little or no food chain controlling them.

A well-balanced permanent pond can actually reduce mosquitoes, because it supports dragonflies, frogs, and small fish that eat larvae, while bats and insect-eating birds help with the adults.

So for me the key is not just “repellent plants”, but removing tiny temporary water pockets and encouraging the predators that should be there.

Hi Michelle, thanks for your message. I’ve just sent you a private message.
You do sound attractive, and your height is not an issue at all. For me, a complete connection in a relationship is fundamental; without it, everything slowly dies. But unfortunately, in my country growing cannabis is illegal… so I’ll have to stay on the lawful side of romance

I am more of a mountains, animals and honest life kind of man than a future local fugitive.

I wish you good luck in your search.
It feels like a time to be grateful, and also a time for real work restoring what winter has worn down. A time to notice every new shoot, every flower beginning again.

For me, it also mirrors something inside.

It’s a moment to look at my own sprouts: where I want to grow, what I want to nurture, and how to prepare the best of myself to share with others.

So far doesn't mean impossible! I hope your search has a good landing wherever you go.

This is beautiful work. The tiny cabin, the wood cookstove, and the care in every detail create something really special. I honestly think the result is as inspiring as it is functional. Designing such a compact stove while keeping real cooking capacity is no small achievement. Respect — this is craftsmanship, intelligence, and soul in the same project. Thank You.
