Very very interested email sent

Good deal James. Just replied to your DM.

Hi there I sent you an email about looking to be apart of your community soon. It would be a move for me and if I can get some solar panels before I make the trip there. I think that would be a great way to contribute, I have some metal working skills and welding skills. My father taught me carpentry through most of my younger years. Thank you and I hope to hear from you contact me at toastdeath22@gmail.com yes a silly email but I have had it for years haha

Hope this finds you well. I was wondering if you are open to international interns.
