Description

Hello Workaway hosts!

My name is Alex - I'm 24 and from Bristol in the UK.

I have lots of experience working in hostel environments (2 months at la iguana perdida in Guatemala, and 3 weeks at Bolita Hostel in Costa Rica) - anything from working behind a bar, to cleaning bathrooms, beds and toilets, to hosting trivia nights!

I have also previously undertaken 2 workaways in New Zealand and 1 workaway in Portugal, and really enjoyed the process! I'm hard-working, enthusiastic, and also love to socialise, and see Workaway as a brilliant way for me to both help people whilst also creating long lasting friendships. Being a keen hiker, I am physically fit and consequently able to do heavy lifting and other practical tasks that might test physical endurance. I have also worked on helping to build a decking, creating stone garden walls, and removing fences from festivals, so I am more than happy to be tasked with practical work. I have experience doing tasks such as painting (houses), weeding, and cleaning (I've worked as a cleaner in a sixth form and a hostel), and I am incredibly enthusiastic to learn new things and am up for doing anything!

Whilst in Portugal I gained experience with animal care (e.g. horses, goats, chickens, and several lovely dogs), so am happy to be tasked with things like this.

I love to cook, and like making soups, baking breads, making fajitas and cooking chick-pea, butternut, and sweet potato curries. I would love to make our hosts some sit-down meals where we can all talk and properly get to know each-other. I also love a good board game (ticket to ride and talisman to name but a few).

I would absolutely love to help and feel free to contact me if you have any questions! My e-mail is: alexmoore878@gmail.com.
