Colombia - from Jan 2024 until May 2024 View allDescription
We're a couple who are taking time away from the 9-5 to learn, grow, and move again. We're easy going, adventurous, people who love food, nature, gardening, biking, and getting to know people, building connection. We're cat lovers, dogs too of course.
Jennika has been working at a community forest in Nova Scotia, Canada from 2019-2023, after completing a masters in Forest Conservation at the University of Toronto, 2018-2019. Jesse is from Alberta Canada and has been working trades (sheet metal) work since 2013, between travelling back and forth across Canada in a van with his cat and some international trips.
We would love to practice Spanish, and gain more farm and homesteading skills. We have knowledge in forest conservation, flora and fauna, environmental issues, woodworking, cooking, and have enjoyed learning permaculture practices.
Jennika has stayed with WorkAwayers in Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, China, and in Chile. Jesse is excited to get involved, and learn culinary skill from new cultures and new friends.
We look forward to meeting you!Interests
