Teacher Yoann Gonzalez
(English bellow) Yoann a passé huit ans en France à apprendre la charpente et la construction bois an alternance, ce qui signifie qu'il a à la fois la théorie et l'experience pratique. Arrivé au Québec en 2012, il s'est très vite intéressé à la construction durable et a participé à plusieurs projets écologiques au travers du Québec, ainsi qu'à la Earthship Academy Ushuaia, ou il a participé avec les autres étudiants à la construction d'un earthship complet. Depuis son arrivée à Terra Perma, il est impliqué dans la majorité des projets de consrtuction et dans la mise en place de l'Ecole. "J'estime que donner l'exemple et partager les savoir-faire sont essentiels pour permettre aux gens d'effectuer une transition vers un mode de vie plus durable et en harmonie avec notre environnement.

He arrived in Québec in 2012 and quickly got into sustainable construction.
