**REVIEWED AND UPDATED 2024**
Hey there!

Useful things to know!
No dietary requirements.
Experienced with just about every type and form of garden tool both manual and mechanical (strimmer, chainsaw, rotavator etc)
2 years working in the domestic garden landscape

Equine care (cleaning and mucking out the stable, hoof cleaning)
Dry stone walling
Grouting swimming pools


I'm currently travelling through Spain spending time with various Workaway hosts and people. So far I've travelled the south of Spain doing volunteering positions from olive harvesting & chainsawing the olive branches to animal care and dry stone walling....

Before all of this I was living in London for two years working as a landscape gardener/maintaining domestic gardens as part of a private gardening company. Website:
hclandscapes.co.uk

...

I left London in hopes of getting into more peaceful environments...

In addition I've had experience working with animals i.e. farm animals when I used to work on a farm feeding and cleaning their living areas (pens and stables) everyday. Organization website:
www.farmsforcitychildren.org


I also aim to try meditation possibly, I think it would be healthy :)

Prior to this, I went to Tanzania, Africa and Dubai, United Arab Emirates to visit family for three weeks which was amazing but I expect Dubai has changed beyond recognition since then! I have also helped some Workaway hosts Bovaria, Germany helping them to build their house from an abandoned ruin, helping hosts in Canada and United States on their farms using tractors etc
From these experiences I gained an understanding about grouting, cementing, wood oiling, garden maintenance and care, driving in the European Union, painting (both walls and helping to paint swimming pools...)

My interests
I love to be outside and active, music, science and technology, exploring spiritual energy fields, inner spirituality, connecting with nature, walking in the woods (night and/or day), road trips, meeting people, business and finance, aviation, history, singing (occasionally), sharing life experiences, swimming, cycling, exploring new places,

Thanks for reading :)

¿Que más?
I'm more than open to try new and different things in life, experience different values people have in life and importantly I think, take feedback and advice from people because you never stop learning in life...

My last Workaway journey in 2020 was very eventful and memorable, with this said I only stayed with one host in Germany which was amazing and learnt more than I evert thought I would! The rest of the journey was either camping or staying with friends and family.
If you see only two feedbacks on my profile it's because I've only stayed with three Workaway hosts so far and all were amazing!

No health problems. I have a full UK driving license so I will be happy to run around using a vehicle and be helpful with a car or truck.
I am more than willing to laugh whilst working, whether that includes a laugh with other people or at myself, I'm not bothered!
