Hello, it’s me. I’m starting a new life in nature in the Pyrenees, right on the Spain–France border. I’m an electronics engineer and a permaculturist, building something real: a long-term, off-grid, regenerative home and land project. I have 6 hectares (14.8 acres) with a 17th-century historic building that I’ll restore as my home. There’s a spring, meadow, forest, and more green than your eyes can reasonably process in one sitting. The direction is clear: permaculture + regenerative agriculture + off-grid living—home systems, gardens, fruit trees, and a food forest, designed for resilience and the long game.

This isn’t meant to be an isolated bubble. I want the project to connect with the local community, creating real networks in the area: collaboration, learning, mutual support, and a shared sense of place. In parallel, I’m also recovering another property near Madrid: 2.5 hectares (6.2 acres) inside a protected natural park, near a lagoon. It’s my “laboratory” for testing ideas, improving land that was neglected, and building systems that can be replicated and scaled.

About me: 175 cm (5’9”), average build, dark hair, brown eyes. I’m hands-on and practical: electricity, solar energy, electronics, plumbing, construction. I build wood furniture, play guitar (and a couple more instruments), and I genuinely enjoy solving problems—especially the kind that end with a working system and a calmer life. I’m looking for an optimistic, resilient person with a good sense of humor—someone who can put heart into details, and who wants this lifestyle: sun, rain, mud, green, stars, and the satisfaction of building a life with intention.

I speak English and Spanish—and honestly, with love, people understand each other in any language.

So: Are you designing your life, or letting chance choose for you?

If this resonates, send me a message and tell me what pulls you most: restoration, gardens, animals, community building, or simply creating a grounded life together.
