    Hi!

    I'm Veronica, originally from Sweden, spent some years living in Portugal where I took my PDC online via Permaculturevisions.com combined with group work that we did together. I also attended some shorter workshops for instance in ECO building and organized some small Permaculture gardening workshops at my own small farm.

    I now live in south Germany and will spend 2016 with learning more and attending some shorter workshops. In 2017 I hope to be able to pursue Permaculture more intensely through a program in Germany or Austria and work towards my goal of becoming a diploma Permaculture Designer.

    You can find some of what I'm up to on my site hyperbrain.me (in English) and also on permakulturdesigner.com (which will be written in German and/or Swedish).

    Hi Veronica,
    You've built a very interesting website! Lots of work and good information.
    Have you checked out Sepp Holzer's work in Austria?

    Thank you. :)

    I do know about Sepp Holzer's work and I'm actually planning to visit the farm this summer and possibly take part of some workshops there. I recently saw that they have a one year training that sounds really interesting, but I have to choose between that one or going straight for the 2 year training by the German Permaculture institute I think. Both money and time that needs to be invested, so I'm taking this year to participate in some smaller workshops and try to figure out which path is the right one for me.

    Hehe, I'm not that young ;) but rather determined to not spend the whole rest of my life in front of a computer too many hours per day. That's why I'm looking for a proper change and I have managed to design my life flexible enough to have time to slowly start such studies on the side.

    Yes, that's the one you linked to, but the fees have changed a bit since 2008. The updated information can be found here: https://www.permakultur-akademie.de/front_content.php?idcat=143&lang=1 (only in German).
