What is your previous experience with Organic Agriculture and Sustainable Development?: In September 2009 I worked for two weeks in an organic farm in Iceland (Eiriksstadhir) picking potatoes, caring for the farm and eating barley. I have done on and offs jobs in fruit picking in the South of france during the summer.

What are your reasons for joining WWOOF Mexico?: Learning about sustainable living and agriculture, Getting to know Mexico better

What do you want the farms and fellow WWOOFers to know about you?: I will be working in South Mexico, Tapachula, for 2months in June and July volunteering with a local Environmental Institute. After that I want to go travel around for a month (or more) and i want to get to live and settle with local people to learn and enjoy as much as possible as well as meeting people interested in organic and sustainable farming.
