Description
Keen adventurer and aspiring carpenter.
Travelling south east asia very soon looking for a raw experience of life.
I like to live simply and stay close to nature. I travel light and I’m comfortable with rough conditions — what matters most to me is learning from real experiences and contributing where I can. I have hands-on skills in carpentry, wood restoration, basic DIY. I’m especially interested in traditional crafts, building methods, nature literacy and any practical skills that take time, discipline and patience to develop.

I try to approach each place with humility — showing up on time, putting in solid effort, and respecting the people who are teaching me. I’m not afraid of hard work and I learn fast when I can watch, listen, and then do.

I’m on the road to challenge myself, grow as a craftsman, and build meaningful stories through the people I meet and the skills I pick up along the way.

I stayed for a week at Clare’s and it was wonderful. Clare is one of the sweetest, purest of heart people you’ll ever meet! She is so kind and genuine and you’re guaranteed to feel cared for with her.
Working on her property is fantastic it’s so beautiful from all her gardening, and her horses (which I got to care for!) are beautiful as well. The… read more

Adam stayed with me for a week and helped me with some great outdoor tasks while at mine. He was a real pleasure to have around, and worked conscientiously at all tasks I asked of him. It was great to have his energy and enthusiasm to help me with some of the work that required a bit more strength and fitness. He also made a good effort with… read more

My 2 week stay at Mikes was great! He’s undertaken a very big and meaningful project and it’s wonderful to be a part of that. Mike does a good job of showing you the bigger picture and explaining why you do the work you undertake while staying with him which is a nice change from the usual garden maintenance of other workaways, at Mikes you get to… read more

I have no hesitation in recommending Adam as a Workaway guest. From the outset, he maintained a great standard of communication, always cheerful and laughing and putting a good effort into my project. During his stay he was involved in planting native species, trimming young trees knocked by the wind and activities in the nursery. His good nature… read more

I stayed with Hannah and Will for about 2 weeks and it has been one of my best work away experiences yet. They are such a lovely family living a natural and off grid lifestyle and they really do make you feel like one of the family. Because of my experience I mostly helped with building and heavy lifting but I also helped with the kids sometimes… read more

Left by host (Help us with our small farm ...) for Workawayer ()

Adam stayed with us for two weeks and was easy going and great fun to have around. During his visit he helped with a small construction job, did some gardening and some renovation in the holiday home and we are very pleased with the results. He was happy to learn and did everything that was asked of him and worked hard. He was very flexible with… read more

Staying at Adam and Fran’s was absolutely fantastic, I couldn’t have asked for a better first Workaway experience. It really felt like staying with family, I felt so at home so fast. My main work was a building project with Adam which was a lot of fun but I also got to work with bees, process my own honey, make candles, do some gardening work and… read more
