Description
*****Actually traveling with my Campervan*****

Im on this planet to learn, and here in WA for guidance and community spirit.

Outdoor Activities are my main engine, for example Surfing, Mountain biking, Climbing or any other activity that involves enjoyment.

I love plants and the garden, carpentry, painting and decoration, Chopping wood , collecting groceries or cooking..

I had an orchard the last two years and also had 3 chickens.

I travel with my tools for painting and carpentry.

I eat mostly vegan, fish and meat ocassionally.

I do not smoke and i dont drink often so my perfect scenario will be connecting with people in the same energy flow.

Best,

Luis

I had a wonderful experience for almost two weeks with Jone & Jochen. I had the opportunity with them to enjoy helping around the house & garden, they have a incredible house and a piece of land in the middle of the Atlantic Pyrenees, off the grid but very close to everything especially forest.
I went for a hike everyday after lunch to enjoy the… read more

I arrived to Merveille in July for a week and I ended up enjoying my volunteer experience for over three months. The life at Marion & Phillip place is very chill with a DIY for single travelers, I enjoyed my journey making wooden boxes for art works, caring of the house and chores, varied easy tasks here and there, lovely meals and definitely… read more

Luis came to my house with some plants that he gave me as a present. He helped me plant them and gave me a lot of great ideas of how to use the space, where to find materials, and how to take care of the orchard. He was very knowledgable, did everything in a very loving way (he loves nature and plants) and also has a great conversation.

I cannot say this more clearly or with enough enthusiasm. Anyone who has the privilege of hosting Javier should count their blessings. I've hosted a lot of exceptional Workawayers. I'm very discriminating about who I've had work at my home. That said, I don't think there's another Workawayer, let alone human on this planet who can outwork Javier.… read more
