Hi I'm Haile :) I’m a steward to the earth and feel deeply that I was sent here to be a caretaker for our planet.
I am passionate about Permaculture, natural building, regenerative organic agriculture, alternative energy, and all the components of living off-grid and breaking free from the Matrix. I look forward to connecting with hosts that are interested in exchanging my time, energy, and love for their deep knowledge and an opportunity to work hands-on living in alignment with earth’s systems.
To give you an idea of what I’ve been up to - without going into too much detail...here are some skills I’ve acquired/experiences I’ve had around my passions over the last several years.

I am hoping to use the workaway platform to find potential opportunities for living in alignment with my truth and passions, as well as to make new connections and to allow life to unfold organically, as it does.
In addition to my studies, I've traveled extensively internationally throughout Central America, South East Asia, Europe, and the United States (where I am originally from). I have lived and worked in Costa Rica on a permaculture project: Tropical Regeneration, in which we were moving toward growing all of our own food on a small piece of land, while helping the local community to become more self-reliant.
I am passionate about holistic living, love, and our planet earth. I am happiest when immersed in nature. Hiking/backpacking/camping are my jam, and I'm up for just about any outdoor adventure.
Looking forward to connecting with you beautiful souls. :)Interests
