Description
Hi, I'm Andres, I'm 27 years old and I'm from Argentina, I grew up in Mendoza, the land of good sun and good wine!
I love the mountains and the sea! I spend most of my free time outdoors, hiking, swimming and camping! I'm always happier when I get to know lovely places and the people that make them so special! I consider myself an animal and nature lover!

I enjoy cooking and meeting people so I have worked in restaurants, cafes and bars for many years so I have experience in both cooking and customer service. I can show you some of the delicious gastronomy of my country 🇦🇷😋 Overall I am a supportive, friendly person above all very fun and open minded.

In my first volunteer experience in Ireland I was helping a lovely family on a sheep farm in Sneem, Co.Kerry where I spent 5 wonderful months learning a lot about their customs and what life is like in the countryside and also living in the world of horses and sheep. I also helped in taking care of the children. It was a wonderful experience 😊.
I have been traveling and working in different parts of the world. I started in Europe (Madrid, Ireland and Germany). Then I moved to Australia where I did my Work and Holidays visa where I had the experience of doing different types of jobs such as construction, gardening, hospitality among others...Then I went to Southeast Asia, where I had the opportunity to visit Vietnam, Laos and Thailand.

One thing I have learned from traveling is that the best things you can take with you are the people you meet along the way and I would love to share adventures with you!

I can't wait to see where this goes and be involved in great places with great people! I'd be up for all kinds of work and I'm sure it will be a wholesome experience! If you have any questions, please let me know.
Cheers.
Andrés 🙂

Ho soggiornato a casa di Giorgia per tre settimane e posso raccomandare vivamente questo ospite. Il mio soggiorno è stato fantastico, i bambini sono molto tranquilli e i nonni che vivono al piano di sotto sono adorabili. Mi hanno trattato come uno di famiglia fin dal giorno del mio arrivo. Ho avuto molto tempo libero per fare tutto quello che… read more

It is impossible to a give individual feedback, as this year a wonderfully cohesive group of helpers from different nations and of different ages worked wonderfully together and hopefully also had an eventful time with good conversations, delicious food and nice excursions. Hi Andres, thank you for being here to helb us. The small wall we finished… read more

First I want to thank Bodo for accepting me at the last minute. I stayed at his house for 10 days helping him with the olive harvest. From the moment he picked me up at the train station until the last moment we shared together he was always available for whatever I needed and felt comfortable. I was living with other Workaway's and friends of… read more

Andrew was brilliant a pleasure to have in our home. He became a member of our family and will always be a member now. A fantastic guy and willing to do anything asked of him. We had lots of fun and we really enjoyed having him staying with us. He is the best guy you will meet and always willing to help no matter what the task.

I was living for five beautiful months with this family and the life experience I had at home was rewarding, from the first day I arrived to the last one they treated me like a son. Your family is lovely and they are EXCELLENT people, from your children to Grand (she is the best) you will see it.
As for my experience, I came to your home without… read more being able to put together a single sentence in English, thanks to your patience and help today I find myself speaking English.
As for your activities, EVERY day you will do different things. There is no routine and that makes it more fun, you get up and do not know what you will do during the day, you can work at home or also end up collecting sheep for some corner of Kerry (crazy) haha.
As for your free time they are quite flexible, they want you to enjoy your stay in your home so the plan that you happen to do, you will not have any kind of inconvenience in doing it and they will want to help you in whatever they can !.
Personally if your idea is to get away from the city and have an experience with nature and animals for all tastes, your home is the ideal. The landscape that you get from any point of view of the house towards all its surroundings are incredible.
That's a bit of what I can leave you about the family, I hope someday to be able to return !!
Regards!.
Andrew.

Estuve viviendo por cinco hermosos meses con la familia y la experiencia de vida que tuve en su hogar fue gratificante, desde el primer dia en que llegue hasta el ultimo me trataron como a un hijo. Su familia es encantadora y son EXCELENTES personas, desde sus hijos hasta Grand (she is the best) usted lo vera.
En cuanto a mi experiencia, llegue a su hogar sin poder armar una sola oracion en ingles, gracias a su paciencia y ayuda hoy me encuentro hablando ingles.
En cuanto a tus actividades, TODOS los dias haras cosas diferentes. No existe la rutina y eso lo hace mas divertido, te levantas y no sabes que haras durante el dia, puedes tabajar en casa o como tambien terminar recolectando ovejas por algun rincon de Kerry (crazy) haha.
En cuanto a tu tiempo libre son bastante flexibles, ellos quieren que tu disfrutes de tu estadia en su hogar por lo que el plan que te se ocurra hacer, no tendras ningun tipo de inconveniente en realizarlo y ellos querran ayudarte en lo que puedan!.
En lo personal si tu idea es alejarte un poco de la ciudad y tener una experiencia con la naturaleza y animales para todos los gustos, su casa es la ideal. El paisaje que tu obtienes desde cualquier punto de vista de la casa hacia todos sus alrededores son increibles.
Eso es un poco de lo que les puedo dejar sobre la familia , espero algun dia poder regresar!!.
Saludos!.

Andrew.
