its a year since i signed up for the Permaculture Association's Diploma in Applied Permaculture Design ...and its been an amazing time... Ive learnt SO much, attended some fantastic events and met the most amazing people from all aver the world....its been a chance just to absorb the experience of what the being on the Diploma journey actually means to me and how it influences my life at the moment.......in terms of designing and documenting design work for my portfolio,, various note and drawing books with random ideas scribbles/mindmaps etc are all I have to show!.... I have also taken lots of photos of places and events that I think will be included in my design work...the year really feels like I have been observing my self on the start of my journey......its been a good start!.....and now, just beyond Autumn Equinox (lots of time planning for a healthy, meaningful winter), I've begun looking at the next stage of this journey.......firstly I got all those scribbles/mindmaps, tore them out the notebooks and filed them in some kind of design order......and then I took a deep, brave breath and made a start at this website. as a way of documenting my Diploma life, but also as a way of sharing it with others too ........i'd like to thank my lovely friend Rachel W at this point for her help, encouragement and support with the whole website project, i'm a bit techno phobic, so its been a big step...but feels a very positive one......and well, here I am ! x

If you still get notifications of comments on this blog and can reply, I would be interested to know why you chose Weebly for your blog. I currently use Wordpress and had never thought of Weebly before I found your site (through the Permaculture Magazine - indirectly).
