I am driven to become connected with the world we inhabit, it’s cycles, of death and of life. To find a sense of belonging and nurture a mindful bond with the mundane, the profound, the creative, the emotional, the spiritual and the physical. Striving to best steward the land and live alongside the beings within it
Originally from the Iberian Peninsula, I found my way to the Island of Albion. I spent the majority of my life in the performing arts, training intensively and working as a professional dancer. I had the privilege of working with productions that mattered and had a strong ethical thread that aligned with me – working particularly with the (disability, financial, racial and gender) politics of Access.
The urban life style, alongside the current political and environmental state of the world, turned my gaze onto an alternate lifestyle. Eventually arriving at the loving Brithdir Mawr Community, there I have been able to blossom into a more connected life with the Land. Where I can grow at my own pace and learn more about myself and deepen my understanding of land based practices (gardening, forestry, animal husbandry and eco-building).
Within Brithdir Mawr I have also been able to live, and work, as part of the Malwen. Which has been such an incredible and affirming experience to dream, create and learn about all that is included in it’s Vision: having ecological and land regeneration practices at it’s core. This is will be one of the most important aspects of my life. I am very proud and grateful to be a part of Malwen.
