Beschreibung

Hello potential host!

My name is Ben. I am 23 years-old. Home for me is a small island near Vancouver, BC, Canada.

I would describe myself as kind-natured, considerate, hard working, and easy-going. I am a very good listener. I tend to get along well with people wherever I go.

Please refer to the 'skills' section to read and a little more about who I am and what I can offer.

Was könntest du arbeiten?

I have done a lot of demanding physical work outdoors in my life. Over the past five summers, I have planted over ONE MILLION TREES working as a tree-planter in Northern Canada. Life's better with a bit of dirt under your fingernails :)

Evidently, I have no issues with physical work, however, I also love to learn new skills and aspire to learn a new skill at each home I visit. Skills I would love to gain experience in include: permaculture practices, carpentry, language practice, animal care, food preparation and preservation, agriculture, and any kind of creative/spiritual endeavour.

I have some experience in teaching, farming, gardening, wood splitting, landscaping, and cooking. I have completed a bachelors degree in elementary education and spent last year teaching for a public school in Canada. Although I enjoyed my time teaching, I am still unsure about my career choice, so I am taking this year off to travel and try different kinds of work.

I am more than confident doing chores around the house. I am a very tidy person, so always keep my living area clean. I am often the first one to start washing dishes after a meal! I am also very receptive when it comes to work, and gladly accept suggestions on how I can do a better job.

Some of my interests include:
- Music (listening, playing, and composing). I am happy to teach you the basics on guitar if you feel inclined to learn.
- Art
- Alternative lifestyles
- Current events (I like to stay up do date with what is happening throughout the world)
- Language Practice
- Hiking and camping

You won't regret having me at your place. I am grateful for any opportunity you may have to offer!

With peace,
Ben

Please note*
I do require a gluten-free diet (I can't eat wheat).
However, I have no other dietary restrictions and love all foods. I am not a 'picky eater!'
I am also happy to cook for myself if I have access to a kitchen. I eat a lot of rice, eggs, beans, vegetables, fruits, nuts and some meats. My diet is inexpensive and easy.
I can also bring along with me my own food if you'd prefer!
