Description
I thrive on experiencing new things and challenging myself. Outdoor activities are my favorite, as they allow me to push my limits while immersing myself in beautiful surroundings. I approach every new experience with enthusiasm and a positive mindset, always eager to learn and grow.

Having grown up in Denmark, I’ve been fortunate to enjoy the comfort and familiarity of a close-knit community, where all of my extended family lives within a 20 minute drive. This upbringing has given me a strong sense of belonging and a deep respect for collaboration, support, and shared experiences. I hope to bring this mindset to new environments and form meaningful connections with those I meet.

Living in a small, cohesive country has also sparked my curiosity about the broader world. I see cultural differences as exciting opportunities to challenge my perspectives and learn from others, and I’m eager to embrace the unique experiences that come with travel.

As soon as August arrived, he blended in perfectly with the group and brought a light, fun atmosphere. He’s truly one of the funniest people we’ve hosted!

You can immediately tell he comes from a farm background: he always shows up with a smile, ready to help, and is extremely flexible and resourceful.
When something needs to get done, you can… read more

I stayed with Jeremy and Erle at their beautiful countryside retreat for five weeks during early spring, and it became my longest Workaway stay so far. Yet the time just flew by.

Their place is like an oasis, peacefully tucked away next to the Vorma River.
I lived on the first floor of the main house, sharing a cozy space with other Workawayers… read more

August was very easy going and showed great initiative when working. No job was too difficult and was willing to go the extra mile.He was very good company and we had great conversations.
He’s definitely a whiz on the big whipper snipper and we got so much work done in the short time he was with us. We wish him well with his studies and welcome… read more

I stayed at Jean Fançois’ place for just about two weeks and could easily have stayed there for the rest of my trip. With a stunning view surrounded by nature J.F. managed to make every day a great day. Every meal was amazing with ingredients either being locally sourced or home produced. J.F. has an astounding level of discipline, knowledge and… read more

August is simply absolutely great. I've been blown away by his kindness, his intelligence, his work ethics and his can-do attitude. August's skills on the land and in the garden are of a professional, he's got a natural sense of the land and an impressive knowledge (plus he's a virtuoso when it comes to using the weed trimmer). We had a loooot of… read more

I stayed with Inti, Amber and their sweet kids for a week. Work was fair, fun and varied. Food was amazing and the accommodation better than what money can buy. Living in "The Little House" gave the freedom to ballance privat and social time. The kids is a delight making them a nannies dream job.
The ideal family to be hosted by in Northland.

August was a pleasure to host! He worked diligently and was positive about all tasks given to him. He was respectful and tidy in our accomodation. We really enjoyed hosting him, it was a shame he couldn't stay longer. We would recommend hosting August to any Work-away hosts.

Thanks August, we hope you have fun on your NZ adventure !!

I spend 2 weeks at Craig and Rachels place. This was my first stop in New Zealand and the perfect start on my trip. Work was varied, fun and a great opportinity to learn new techniques and skills. They are the type of host that makes you feel that you owe them more than they owe you. Would highly recommend.

August was great to have around. Weather was very wet at times but he always got stuck in and worked on the projects. Always cheerful and a great smart of humour. Happy to host him again anytime!
