Beschreibung
I love to explore new cultures and new ecosystems. I am motivated by helping others and the planet, enjoy challenges and intellectual stimulation. Outdoorsy but educated, retired military, ex teacher, carpenter and most recently retired chef. I bring a wide set of skills to the table but what makes me different from most of my peers is I have never lost my desire to learn new things. Very adaptable, can thrive in under any conditions, with very few material needs, (internet being the only exception). I am currently completing my masters in Nutrition on line

Sila and Johann were excellent hosts. We had a great time getting to know them. There was plenty of cultural exchange and goodwill. The work was simple and straightforward. Parque del Plata is a beautiful resort town with some of the loveliest beaches we have ever seen. We highly recommend workawaying for Sila and Johann.

It was an extraordinary and intense experience. Marilyn was a wonderful host and a patient teacher when we needed her to be. The whole staff went out of their way to accomodate us.

We had a wonderful experience here. For us, just to experience Quechua and Aymara culture was a gift, but to be immersed in it was just incredible. The children were so open to us, greeted us with hugs, and bombarded us with questions. The teachers were very concerned about our well-being and looked after us with such kindness. Everyone was so

An excellent and amazing experience. We highly recommend! First of all, the location is a beautiful natural preserve located along the ocean in a relatively unknown area. It is indeed a very special and unique place. The people here are another asset. Marco is a sincere and committed host who is committed to finding a role for all of his

It was true gift to have Elke and Levi helping us out at the lighthouse last summer. Both of them experienced in the kitchen, Elke enjoyed it most. We would clearly not have managed last summer without her delicious foodmaking. Always paying attention to details and with a nuanced taste, she made us absolutely delicious plates. She added a set of

Elena and Frode went above and beyond to accommodate us as volunteers. They patiently explained their expectations, showed us what and how to do it, but once we understood, they trusted us and were hands-off. We also had a comfortable little home with beautiful views of the Arctic Ocean and enjoyed our long hikes on their mostly untouched island.

Personally, this was a great experience. The hosts Bill and Renee have been very accommodating and do their very best to make sure their volunteers have a great time. They have provided rides and fulfilled shopping lists and have been, along with just being very open and approachable, informed guides for the area. The place itself is very special

Levi and his wife Elke were excellent houseguests and workers. They had to put up with some very challenging situations and unseasonably cold weather which made the work we needed to do more difficult but they took it in stride and had a real rural Alaskan experience because of it. They helped me so much with my plant nursery and did a great job

Fantastic experience. First of all the hosts, Stephanie and Brad were friendly, open, and thoughtful guides to the region and the lifestyle. The location was tremendous, a still primitive archipelago with endless mountainous islands bursting out of the clear waters. Then there was the wildlife: at first, we were doubtful about the time of year but

We were so glad to host Levi and Elke. Very respectful people who felt kind of embarrassed that we took care of them with all the meals. Finally, at the end we were glad to let Levi and Elke cook some meals for us. We enjoyed our conversations with them and were glad to let them in on our decision making of the road we have been taking and that
