Description
Hello!
I am an 31 year old guy from Sweden. I love travelling and meeting new people and discover new cultures.
I like to be active and learn new things. Been working in different areas before, such as; gardening, constrution, and a lot of guiding jobs.
I have been growing up near to animals which make my animalcare really good. During my time as a farmworker I have been drivning heavy machinery and been responsible for feeding the animals.
I have done wwoofing in New zealand and farmwork in Australia as well and really enjoyed it.
Just ask if its anything more you wondering about.

Markus was a stellar volunteer. He worked hard, had a great attitude, and was easy to get along with. We would gladly host him again if he returns to the US. Can’t go wrong with Markus.

Markus stayed with us only one week, but he helped us a lot. Together with other volunteers he worked inside the house and in the garden. Also he took a part in the short movie as an actor and accessories maker. Markus is very friendly, open-hearted, helpful young man. Hope to see him again.
