    Hello!
    My name is Gabriel but I also go by Gabe :) I am 28 years old and am looking to workaway this year. It has been about 5 years since I have done so and feel a bit overdue! In 2019 I traveled around the Philipinnes, and volunteered at a hobby farm in Central California as well as a dragonfruit farm in Big Island, Hawaii. Some of my most valuable lessons and growth came from these times and am always looking to further my growth and learning wherever I land.

    When I was 20 years old, I moved to Humboldt County, California to pursue college and ended up staying for 7 years. It is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. It is home to pristine beaches, abundant wildlife, and Coast Redwoods (the tallest trees in the world). There, I studied a little bit of everything; although, not very satisfied sticking to one subject: I started with Environmental Engineering, switched to Wildlife Studies, then to Dance Studies, and eventually to Art :)

    In 2022, I went to work in the mountainous wilderness of Northern and Eastern California. I lived in a tent for 4 months working on various conservation projects; such as fixing and maintaining hiking trails, as well as ecological restoration. Here I felt the most connected to my environment I ever had. We fetched water every morning and night, bathed daily in the icy glacier-fed river, and took turns being on "bear watch" to protect our food from being eaten. VERY hard work and very immersive, but I met some of the best people through this opportunity that I now call friends :)

    2023 was a very difficult year chalked full of unforeseen change, so I really wanted to focus on making 2024 a year of learning more about myself and where my family comes from. I decided to go hitchhiking in Mexico for 2 months with the goal of learning Spanish while working at different hostels and hotels. By the end of my trip, I became more confident in my Spanish and met up my mom in the pueblo she was born in for the first time of my life. I also got to meet some distant relatives and communicate with them :)

    This year, I am focusing more on my goals of learning how to be a better farmer and steward of the land. I will be spending the first 6 months of this year in Hawaii, working as a farmers apprentice (mostly growing food for the local schools and community).
