Hey there! 👋

Young Canadian man looking to share his skills and experience, gain new ones, have some fun adventure, and be a part of the international workaway community!

For the last four years I've worked as an Industrial Mechanic, and before that a Welder and Construction Labourer. I believe I stand out from the average workawayer with my experience in the trades, and the work ethic and discipline that is required of those fields.

However I also have years of experience in organic farming, homesteading, hospitality and animal husbandry through workaway and internships. I have worked all across Canada, the western US and now Europe for many different hosts, all lovely experiences. Please read some of my reviews below.

Most importantly though I am honest, respectful and genuine. Workaway has given me the opportunity to engage and foster relationships with so many different people, and I am very grateful.

I am a social, extroverted person, however I'm very good at being independent. I keep myself busy with music (I play banjo and sing), reading and outdoor activities.

Please don't hesitate to message me, always open to hearing about new opportunities and making new friends!
