Beschreibung
Hi, I'm Beni :) I'm 43, female, originally from England. I've been travelling around Europe since September 2015 & really enjoy the workaway lifestyle - being of help, meeting people and exploring other cultures :) Now it's time to swap the campervan for the backpack and to enjoy an Asia Adventure! I've been joined by Jo who, like me, wants to gain a true cultural experience of every place we go through working and living alongside local people. Please see our 'couple profile' on workaway for more information.

KEY SKILLS: gardening/farming, animal care, hospitality/guests, decorating, cleaning, excellent typing skills.

Was könntest du arbeiten?
- Gardening (mowing, strimming, digging, planting, watering, pruning, harvesting, etc.);
- Animal care (chickens, goats, rabbits, sheep, ducks, pigs, cows, horses, donkeys, dogs, cats (.... I LOVE cats)
- Cleaning (anything);
- Painting/decorating (to a good, professional finish & without slopping paint everywhere ... AND I wash up rollers/brushes :P )
- Fence building (with help!) - wire/posts & also willow.
- Concrete (with your guidance)
- Hospitality/greeting guests and preparing accommodation for guests (airbnb, guest houses, etc.)

I'm physically strong, I have a 'can do' positive attitude, I'm housetrained(!) & clean up after myself (and others). I use my initiative and I'm happy to get stuck in with whatever needs doing :P In particular, I want to learn more about permaculture, organic farming and bees. I'm especially keen to be involved with eco communities.

Was noch ...
I'm calm, peaceful, loving, humorous, happy, healthy, positive. I'm not afraid to get stuck in and to work hard at things I enjoy (which is most things). I'm very excited about this current phase in my life where I'm wandering the world, being of service. If you have cats, that would be a big bonus.

I love workaway! I've been doing it for a few years now and have made some wonderful friends all around the world who I have learned from and who have inspired me in so many ways. I'm extremely grateful for this period in my life and for this opportunity :)

What a beautiful family and what a wonderful workaway experience!

I spent around 6 weeks with Emanuela, Fabio, the children and the animals from end-November to mid-January and had a wonderful time. I stayed in their town house, centrally-located in Bosa and close to the river, the shops and the castle (the sea was a 30-minute walk). We… read more

Vom Workawayer (Beni) für Host für (Stay on Sardinia, Italy and ...)

I had a good week here with this lovely Italian family (who speak wonderful English). The place is (at October 2016) a bit of a 'work in progress' with the main straw bale building structures up but the final finish yet to happen. I worked an afternoon in the extensive 'garden' (100 hectares?? It's vast!!) and spent the rest of my time helping… read more

Vom Workawayer (Beni) für Host für (Helping out in Sardinia.)

I had a super time:) I've a fair bit of workaway experience and must say this is up there in the favourites category! I worked in the garden and thoroughly enjoyed the tranquility of the place: the plants, the Cat Supervisors (also very helpful with natural fertilizer), the birds, lizards and other wildlife. The flat was lovely with a view of… read more

Beni and her niece came to stay with us for a week initially, but after an unexpected change of plans were promptly invited back again. They are both very easy going, kind and hard working people and we all got along brilliantly. They helped us out with numerous jobs on the farm and in the kitchen too and worked really hard, and did far note than… read more

Myself & my niece were only meant to stay for a week but after arriving with a Tuscany host with the most appalling living conditions, we did a sharp u-turn and Jodie & Kev very kindly took us in for a further week!!

We had the most wonderful time in this peaceful and incredibly scenic place, carrying out tasks including: strimming, raking,… read more

I was with Bettina for around 10 days or so and had the most lovely workaway time. The hours of the tasks varied with help being necessary at different times and some days being busier than others - but all in balance. I learned new skills such as trimming trees with a long saw thing, making compost holding bays from fallen branches and willow… read more

Beni is just so great!
I really enjoyed a wonderful week with this powerwoman. I never saw such a strong female, with a fully open heart, serving and helping and managing various tasks in a really responsible and selfmotivated way.
It was a pleasure to work and co-create together, having deep conversations and finding a vibrating and inspired… read more

Beni is a pure joy.
She is full with positive energy, optimism and love. She took a great care of the animals and the garden. No task was too much for her and everything she had to do, she loved doing.
She is a great workawayer with the best attitude.
Invite her and you won't regret. :)
We miss you, Beni!

I spent a week with Betty & Mark in July 2016 & had the most wonderful time :D The location is very isolated and the surroundings are beautiful. I felt at home immediately and had so many wonderful conversations with Betty, Marc and Workawayer Connor; a week really wasn't long enough. The work was mostly helping in the garden & helping care for… read more

From the time of arrival to leaving Beni was full of positive energy.
