My name’s Derek and I am a 45 year old male. I have been lost for some time now and I have been re-assessing what I really need from life. I used to be a director of various companies, both here in the UK and abroad but after years of being disillusioned with the whole capitalist lifestyle just woke up one morning and decided to quit. I have struggled since but I am determined to seek the right path. For the last 10 years or so I have dreamed of being able to survive by living as close to the land and nature as possible and I am really keen to join with others in a community in order to continue developing and growing these thoughts. I have just separated from my wife [no hang-ups] and I think that the final piece of the jigsaw has been laid. I am very interested in Buddhism, Wicca, Nature, Environmental Issues, Sustainable Living, Renewable Energy and all other things in life that are both peaceful and promote harmonious living with others. Some Experience Offered: 25 years - Company director [IT/Web sector] / Web design / Business development / Marketing etc. I must have other worthwhile uses but I can’t think what may be valuable to you like I have had my own allotment for 2 years, practical manual work etc. I am looking to belong to a community with like-minded people that is preferably still in some sort of formation stages and has the potential to allow me input some valuable skills so, If you have such a space free and would like to meet up, please contact me. I probably have more questions than answers at the moment but would love to hear from you. I am very open minded and will consider anything.. well almost

See my post "Immediate help needed" We're a pretty earthy bunch here, and the only marketing skills needed are what is necessary to run a roadside stand in Canada. I am of wiccan/pagan/catholic persuasion, my other half is a buddhist and our tenant is an atheist (his Dad was a preacher) We practice sustainable farming and live a 1/2 mile from transit if you want to see other farms, I'm also on Help Exchange if you want to see pics of the place. (Host #1563 In any case-Good Luck! Lois
