Beschreibung
Hello!!
I'm Ray from Cape Town, South Africa.
I speak English and have a basic level of Spanish and German.
My interests are traveling, music, hiking, animals, food and cultures, permaculture.
I think this is a great platform to meet new people, learn, discover, exchange.
I have done a wide variety of jobs with workaway including gardening, painting, stone walling, earth-works, maintenance tasks, caring for animals and various others.
At the moment I'm interested in living off the grid and growing fruit and vegetables organically.
I am independent and responsible, open-minded, fast learner and not afraid of getting dirty or hard work.
I enjoy the outdoors and countryside and I am generally easy going when it comes to food, I basically eat everything!
Thanks for reading,
Speak to you soon!

A truly unique and wonderful experience with Spike and Carrie.

Ray was our first workaway and the experience was an absolute delight. He has a host of skills that are useful for a finca project like ours and prefers the 'outside' work. He was always willing and worked way in excess of what was expected of him. Even better, a couple of days in he suggested that a friend join him and the pair of them worked… read more

It was a pleasure to share with Ray for a few weeks at home! Quiet, independent, fully owner of his project that was a beautiful house for the chickens, which he built with all the recycled materials that we found in the garden. Without a doubt, if you need to carry out an ingenious project, Ray is your guy!

Ray arrived just in time. There was an amount of tree trunks to split and stack what he and Siebert did with endless patience during some hot days. The piling up (75 cubic meter!) is quite well done and will keep for a long time. Then the hay had to be brought in, a job that always requires helping hands. On rainy days (there were a lot) Ray… read more

The work was easy and varied from washing dishes to driving to the bakery! The food was great, 3 lovely meals a day and the caravan was comfy. A good experience :)
