Hello! I've been on the permaculture journey since I discovered it through a water harvesting workshop in 2004 lead by Brad Lancaster, and since, it's been a real joy to participate actively to a better future for our children ! I got my first 3 months-long PDC in Spain at the Instituto de Permacultura Montsant with Richard Wade & Ines Sanchez in april 2009, currently working under the mentorship of Atelier des Alveoles(Cobonne, France) on my informal diploma: developping a professional study design office and a demonstration and teaching site. I want to put my experience and knowledge to the service of the local and global community. I love learning and teaching with others and from my own mistakes on the different projects we created with my family through 3 different types of climates in different countries throughout the years. I am a curious creative guy who loves to connect with nature and people, now in my early 50s and living in the center of France, actively teaching regenerative hydrology and permaculture, designing systems for local and international groups and their projects, also facilitating courses and workshops for permaculture-focused Erasmus+ youth exchanges. Looking forward to meeting fellow teachers in the next events.
