    Hi, my name is Matt. First a little about who I am and second a little about what I am doing right now.
    I grew up and worked on farms in rural Wisconsin, USA for the first 20 years of my life. When I am back in my home area I work in fine dining as a server and bartender. I am a solid individual or team working; a self starter who is eager to apply my individual skills and learn new ones. I’m looking to put in an honest day's work and go to bed tired. I’m ready to learn, and willing to do whatever it takes.
    Currently I am traveling South America by motorbike, originally from Santa Marta, Colombia, south, next to Ecuador. I am working along the way, mostly for room and board but also to stay away from the gringo trail. I like the simple things in my life right now, like good food, hard work, bright sunlight, good sleep, coffee in the morning and so on.

  • Was noch ...

    Previously, I have worked at The Long Haul, a budding off-grid homestead community in Finland, Minnesota. My duties entailed clearing brush and land, creating and maintaining garden plots and beds, splitting and stacking firewood (see profile picture), caring for and butchering animals, as well as general construction tasks. I stayed on the homestead property for one month.
    In addition, I worked with Sail Relief Team at their sustainable farm on the small island of Viequies, Puerto Rico. My primary focus was clearing sections of jungle vegetation and creating garden rows. As part of the crew I cared for the numerous farm animals, tended for the gardens, worked with locals to sell our produce and eggs, helped cook and distribute 3 community meals weekly. I also stayed on this property for one month.
    Recently, in April, I worked on Finca Inti Killa and the associated hostel located near Puerto Lopez, Ecuador. Primarily I worked on the farm, caring for the horses and chickens as well as managing the fields and paddocks. I did however gain valuable experience working with and attending to the hostel and it’s guests. I stayed for one month.
