my name is Elvira and I'm a Chicagoan who's lived in Eastern Europe until the early 80's, and then in the maritime climate of Seattle for 15 years.
for twenty years i devoted my time in the tourism trade and property management.

My boyfriend of 6 years is a professional locksmith, He is from a small farming town in Kansas, where since a child he was hands on with all aspects of ranching and farming.

though the scope of our professions made us work independent of each other, we also work well as a team.

winter 2009 we lived in Hawaii, assisting landowners with basic upkeep on various properties in the Puna District of the Big Island. we lived on many off the grid properties, improving their sustainability. from water catchment systems, to solar panel installation, and eco friendly toilet systems.

more recently, we assisted Casa las Tortugas in San Pancho, Nayarit. It is the Olive Ridley conservation project.. from picking freshly layed eggs from nests dug 2 feet deep in the sand, to releasing the last set of 2009 hatchlings.

Unlike farm or ranch detail, turtles are nocturnal creatures, so tending to them and daily tasks in the community were a challenge in the start, but thankfully like all harvests, subside.

At EntreAmigos, the local community center in San Pancho K was a recycling technician and volunteer, I became a teacher and the library assistant.

we would be happy to devote our time, ideas and expertise for you.

sincerely,

elvira and keiser
