Moliagul philosopher

Hello travellers.
After reading and buying permaculture magazines, doing project after project all in the name of Permaculture (in four different homes in Victoria) for years, I have eventually found this forum and joined.
My name is Edwin and I am currently in Cologne, Germany. When in Australia I spend as much time as possible (too often wasted by poor planning I have to admit) adding something to my permaculture-based garden around my homes. Since my partner of two years is German (and a believer in Permaculture and happy helper in my projects), we have agreed to spend as much time in Germany as well as in Australia. (One chapter that is missing from the Permaculture Design Manual (despite it being one of the most valuable, important and interesting books in existence) is "Making Permaculture easier via Bi-National Relationships"), so I'm have to work it out myself by experience).
In the meantime, my slowly-developing revegetation and Permaculture project in the northern Goldfields of Victoria, at the foot of Mt Moliagul, is in suspense. :(
I am always hoping that I might people who like that area of the world and might like to be involved somehow (even if that only means visiting and enjoying the sense of isolation and immersion in nature that is easy to experience there, drinking the rainwater, reading under lights in a caravan powered by solar panels at night, breathing totally unpolluted air and looking at a night sky that is usually clear with zero light pollution).
In the meantime I'm trying to see how I can be involved in something Permacultural here around Cologne while I am here, and I'm hoping that somebody might allow me to share their Schreber Garden
Good luck to all readers, lets keep the Permaculture message moving:
