Beschreibung
Hello!
I'm currently slow-travelling around the world whilst on a break from my previous career as an Aerospace Engineering Project Manager.
I'm British but grew up in Dubai, and have been fortunate enough to visit many countries. I am a self-driven, organised & resourceful individual who loves being active and exploring new places. I find fulfillment in hard work and pursuing my passions. Meeting people and learning about new cultures is one of my favorite things to do.
Sports are a huge part of my life. Specifically, volleyball, cricket, running, golf, and rugby. I take great pleasure in the physical and mental challenges that come with these activities.
Apart from sports, I also love to cook and experiment with new recipes. The process of trying new cuisines and creating something delicious brings me a sense of creativity and satisfaction. I have a natural curiosity and love for learning, and I am always seeking out new knowledge and experiences to broaden my horizons. I have experience cooking for a crew aboard a sailing yacht.
I am an Aerospace Engineer by degree, so have a good understanding of how things work. I also have several weeks of general DIY and gardening experience. I appreciate the value of doing things right first time.

We had a wonderful experience hosting Declan. He showed great initiative, especially in the kitchen, where he consistently prepared delicious meals for us - including catching fresh fish for dinner! Alongside his cooking, he was also a big help in the garden.
We highly recommend Declan to any host looking for a lovely, reliable, helpful guy!

I stayed with Carla & James for a month and absolutely loved it. They are the most caring, thoughtful and down to earth people, and it was a real privilege to be able to spend time with them in Brisco. The scenery around Brsico is beautiful day and night with plenty to see and do in your spare time - hikes, kayaking, waterfalls, rock climbing,… read more

He is a very attentive person with the assigned work. He has a lot of experience in various jobs and that makes him organized and responsible volunteer with his hours of support. We thank you Declan for your commitment to our project and all the time shared. Have a good trip!

Declan did an excellent job at Pajaibal de las Sirenas. His workmanship was excellent, he is self-starter and very committed worker. Beside his every day task, his cooking skills are GREAT and everyone loved his food. He has a pleasant and friendly personality and was always on time with his work.
We give him our best recommendation.

It was nice to be part of a project that focuses on being eco-friendly, and I was grateful to learn some things about permaculture along the way. The work I did mostly consisted of digging, landscaping, gardening and painting. I also baby-sat for Amélie's… read more

Mr Declan was a perfect match for my workaway.
I had a great time working beside him.
He was full of Energy and was helpful to me.
I am glad to have met Declan.
Most importantly i leaned a lot from him.
I’d recommend him to all the work away host.

Tsering made me feel so welcome in Namche and even helped me with my travel arrangements leading up to and after the stay. Tsering provided plenty of food and accommodation and was very relaxed about working hours and days. The work was accurate to the description provided. Overall I would fully recommend Workawayers to stay with Tsering in Namche.
