Description
Hi! My name is Marti. It's been quite a few years since I've been on Workaway-- I traveled for much of my early 20s and I am excited to get back into it! I've been managing a hotel in Austin, Texas, USA for the last three years and I am ready to see the world again.

A little more about me:
I am an artist and writer. I primarily do street art, using mixed-media and collage to to express myself. My degrees are in dance and creative writing, and travel has always been so inspiring to me. My years roaming around Europe and Asia was undoubtedly the most incredible time of my life. I hope you can help me continue in my travels :)

What else ...
I am a very hard worker. I've spent the last few years furthering my career in hospitality and tourism, but I am ready to explore again. I love to make art! I enjoy yoga and swimming and meeting new people. I think there is no faster way to grow as a person than travel and learning about other cultures. Can't wait to get back into it!

At the risk of sounding dramatic, I am going to begin by saying that this was possibly the greatest experience of my life. I think I put off writing this review because, to be honest, it breaks my heart a little bit every time I think about my life in Haiphong. I miss it everyday. This is a very, very special workaday experience--it is hard to put… read more

I spent five weeks working at this hostel, and would definitely do it again. The staff here is incredibly friendly and very welcoming. Most of them have been living in Flagstaff for a while, and are happy to show you around. The work is fair and the schedule is consistent, which gives you the opportunity to plan around it. (You also get paid for… read more

Marti was such an awesome addition to our hostel, we really loved having her!!!
She came in with such an awesome attitude from day one, got along really well with staff and guests alike, and she was always so willing to help.

I am going to try to organize my thoughts as best I can, and keep this as brief, but fair to my experience as possible. I spent a month working at this hostel, and cannot stress what a unique, and special place it is. Wolfie, Elias, and Anna, (in reverse alphabetical order,) are funny, strange, and incredibly good-hearted people. They made me… read more
