Description
WORLD TRIP!!
We’re on a world trip :) After quite a lot of planning and consideration we’ve taken the leap and have kicked off our long awaited tour around the planet.
Malta->Nepal->Central Asian Steppes->SE Asian->Japan->??
My name is Grant, I’m a 31 year old well-travelled Canadian. I’m not new to Workaway having volunteered in Spain, Portgual, England and Scotland a few years ago - great experiences all around, feel free to contact the hosts in my reviews. I’ve worked in a few industries relevant to Workaway - tourism & guiding, home building construction, service, animal care, gardening and admin. My formative years were spent in guiding and outdoorsmanship. I have a combined 4 years guiding and co-ordinating adventure trips into national parks across Canada, mostly in Ontario and Alberta, in canoe and on horseback. (So much to say in so little space) :)
I have no dietary or lifestyle restrictions and am not a smoker. I have no allergies. I have a driving license. I speak English and German.
I am a personable, well educated, adventure seeker, and am endlessly curious. Learning is my key drive here, the more I can experience, be involved in, and learn about, the happier I’ll be. This is a sliver of me, and I hope it paints somewhat of a clear picture as to my character and interests.
I am not at the moment much of a social media aficionado, but will add pictures to my profile as I find/take them. Thank you for you time, and any consideration. -
