Description
I am a positive and motivated person always looking to connect with people and communities in the places around the world. I like to read, write, listen to music, play sport, watch films, and travel as much as possible.
I grew up in Manchester, UK, and for the last 2 years I have lived in London. I have spent a lot of time travelling and staying with family in Italy, France and Morocco. Travel has given me an open mind and made me eager to learn and meet new people from different cultures.
I have worked on a campsite in the Provence region of France for a month, and I have been a blog manager for a multicultural museum in the town of Sefrou, Morocco.
I am part of a big family and have experience looking after younger children.
I have a driving licence.

Voy a escribir este comentario en inglés porque es mi lengua nativa pero para los que buscan voluntariados donde se habla español (cómo yo) , se puede hablar español todo el rato en la casa de Marisol porque Marisol y Luis hablan poco inglés. Es un verdadero intercambio.

Albert brought so much sunshine to our farm during his stay in April! He was always happy to lend a hand with whatever needed doing. Whether it was chopping firewood (weather permitting!), helping us build the greenhouse, or assisting in the kitchen for a couple of events, Albert's positive attitude and willingness to learn were a breath of fresh… read more

I had an amazing stay at the Farm with Joha, José, and their 4 dogs. Joha and José are really fun people and super easy to get along with. We always spent evenings together by the fire, eating, chatting and sharing music. The house is stylish and the guest room is really nice, spacious and very comfortable. The views are beautiful and being… read more surrounded by a native forest (of lengas trees) gives you a sense of calm and tranquility. The work was interesting and a mixture of outdoor and indoor depending on the weather (in April there’s a mix of snow, sun and rain). It mostly involved giving José a hand to build the greenhouse or storing wood in the winter. Inside it was cleaning or washing dishes. It was also really fun hosting events in the refugio. Helping José in the kitchen gave me a taste of what it is like to work in a high quality restaurant. Besides that, I fed the dogs or took them out for a short walk when José and Joha were in town. I loved spending time with the dogs, they are gorgeous. One of the great things about this workaway was that José and Joha treated me very well, cooked great food, introduced me to their friends, and shared stories about their interesting lives. I felt like I was part of the family! It felt like a true cultural exchange instead of a job, which is the true meaning of volunteering! I learned so much about food in general and Chilean and Argentinian culture in particular. I’m going to miss José’s jokes and lots of interesting chats with Joha. Thank you José and Joha for being such kind and generous hosts 🙏❤️✌️

Tuve una estadía increíble en Farm con Joha, José y sus 4 perros. Joha y José son personas muy divertidas y me cayeron muy bien desde el inicio. Siempre nos juntábamos en las tardes para comer, charlar y compartir música al lado del fuego. La casa es elegante y la habitación de invitados es realmente bonita, espaciosa y muy cómoda. Las vistas son hermosas y estar rodeado de un bosque nativo (de árboles de lengas) te da una sensación de calma y tranquilidad. El trabajo fue interesante y una mezcla de actividades al aire libre y al interior, dependiendo del clima (en abril hay de todo: nieve, sol y lluvia). Principalmente consistía en darle una mano a José para construir el invernadero o almacenar leña en la leñera. Dentro de la casa, hacia limpiezas o lavaba platos. También fue muy divertido ayudar con los eventos en el refugio. Ayudar a José en la cocina me dio una idea de cómo es trabajar en un restaurante de alta calidad, porque él es muy buen cocinero. Además de eso, alimentaba a los perros o los sacaba a pasear un rato cuando José y Joha no estaban en casa. Me encantaba pasar tiempo con los perros, son muy lindos. Una de las cosas geniales de este voluntariado fue que José y Joha me trataron muy bien, cocinaron comida excelente, me presentaron a sus amigos y compartieron historias sobre sus interesantes vidas. Me sentí parte de la familia. Fue un verdadero intercambio cultural y no un trabajo, que es el verdadero significado de ser voluntario. Aprendí mucho sobre la comida en general y sobre la cultura chilena y argentina en particular. Voy a extrañar a los chistes de José y las charlas con Joha! Gracias José y Joha para ser tan amables y generosos 🙏❤️✌️
