Beschreibung

*** March Update - Currently in Utah, Looking for Volunteer opportunities Spring/Summer25 ***

Hello! I am a 34 year old who is from Salt Lake City, Utah in the United States. I have recently left my job as a Wildland Firefighter, in which I spent most of the last decade working in this profession. I have traveled throughout the Western U.S and Alaska for countless forest fires and have been lucky to see many beautiful landscapes over the years.

After resigning last year, I traveled to Europe & Turkey for several Workaways and would love to pick it up again here in the States.

I have been working at a Metal Fabrication shop since October of last year. So, if you have any welding projects, I may be able to help.

Aside from splitboarding and mountaineering in the wintertime, I enjoy all human powered activities such as running, biking, rock climbing, hiking and anything else that involves moving outside!

A few other notes:
- I love coffee
- Only fluent in English like a typical American... but I will try to learn your language!
- I am not a picky eater and love trying new food
- I am not religious (had to say this coming from Utah)
- I do not drink much, maybe 2 beers a week but I can easily go without alcohol if those are your rules.
