What drew you to the MEV and what excites you about living in this community?
I've dreamed of living in spain for many years and I grew up on a farm, but I also kind of like living around people! The MEV just magically put all three together in one beautiful cocktail that suits me perfectly! I can't wait to walk out in to the garden with a cup of coffee and wave to my neighbor and ask how their coffee is.. :)
Who are you as a person? (personality, values, etc.)
I see myself as a positive and energetic person who enjoys both adventure and everyday simplicity. I work as a pilot and instructor, and alongside that I love building new projects and ideas. Curiosity drives me – I like to explore, learn, and keep moving forward.
In daily life I value health, movement and small routines that make me feel alive – like strength training, Muay Thai, jump rope sessions, and especially cold plunges (every morning if I can). I also share life with my partner and our little Chihuahua, who reminds me to laugh, slow down, and appreciate the moment.
I believe in honesty, responsibility, and making the most of the opportunities we get. For me, balance is key: working hard for my goals, but also enjoying time with friends, family, and nature."
Tell us about yourself and/or your family—your interests, hobbies, occupation, and passions.
I live together with my partner, who works as an operating room nurse, and our small (but big in personality!) long-haired Chihuahua. We enjoy a simple yet active lifestyle with a mix of health, good food, and time outdoors.
I work full time as a pilot and part time as a flight instructor, which has given me the chance to explore the world from above and meet people from many different cultures. In my free time I like strength training, Muay Thai, jump rope, and daily cold plunges – all things that keep me grounded, focused, and energized.
Together with my partner, I’m also in the early stages of building a startup where we are developing a new product. It’s an exciting journey that challenges us, teaches us, and adds an extra layer of creativity to our lives.
Family, friends, and community mean a lot to me, and I try to create balance between ambition, adventure, and appreciating the small joys in everyday life.
What will be your role in the community? (e.g., sustainability projects, community gatherings, permaculture, holistic wellness, creative workshops, education, etc.)
I see myself contributing with both energy and practical involvement. I enjoy bringing people together and would love to join in on community gatherings, activities, and maybe even organize some group training sessions or outdoor challenges (Muay Thai, jump rope, or cold plunges for the brave!).
I grew up on a dairy farm and have always felt connected to agriculture. Today I’m especially curious about regenerative farming – not because I know much yet, but because I want to learn and explore it together with others.
I’m also a newly started entrepreneur, fascinated by building projects from the ground up, so I’m sure that curiosity and drive will spill over into community life as well.
Most of all, I want to add positivity, support, and a bit of humor to the community spirit.
What does your dream community look like? Dream day in the MEV?
I hope to find like-minded people who doesn't take life too seriously! :) People with ambition to grow but also to sit down, have a beer by the pool and relax! I hope to meet people who takes joy in physical exercise of any kind really, whether it be walking, stretching, fighting or lifting. My dream day in the MEV would be to wake up, have a walk by the lake or the mountains with my partner and my little dog. Enjoy a long soothing breakfast outside, eating fresh local food, having a workout of some kind alone or together with friends, and maaaybe a bit of work somewhere in there too.. :) Finish off with a nice dinner and a glass of wine at home or at a neighbors house!
