Hi everyone, I would love some help finding connections in Mexico or Latin America for a workstay. I'm needing to get away from the city and want to improve my Spanish(I am already at a conversational level). I work in the schools here, so I am thinking ahead to summer and I'm also looking for a tribe/longer term community(Houston life is draining me), so the stay length is flexible. I know it takes energy to take on a new person, and I'm really just thinking about conversations and connections at this point.
I have a lot to offer in regard to nurturing and fine tuning natural systems. I have a BS in Horticulture and a Masters in Landscape Architecture, I've been through a couple PDC's and have a mature food forest that I've established and learned from. I've managed a 2 acre organic farm and am familiar with intensive production models. I am experienced with poultry(I really enjoy designing chicken systems). I also have worked bees for 6 years and currently manage 23 colonies(I enjoy beekeeping philosophy and teaching/learning about bees).
Anyway, that about it. I'm leaning toward Mexico because it is more familiar. Also, I definitely lean toward/prefer the anarchist community. Or at least people who understand peaceful parenting, voluntary relationships, and natural order.

Also, also, If anyone is looking to travel/wwoof this summer and wants to meet up/coordinate let me know. Thanks for reading

 
You frighten me terribly. I would like to go home now. Here, take this tiny ad:
