Description

Hello!
I’m Andy a 28 year old originally from Zimbabwe but more recently from England. I have been travelling through the Americas for a number of months. Hardworking and respectful of those around me, I am keen to improve my Spanish whilst also learning more about local cultures and widening my skillset in gardening, cooking, and construction.

Relevant experience:
- fruit and cocoa farm in Colombia. Tasks included picking a variety of fruits, flowers, etc. General maintenance tasks like helping repair the moto shed. Support in the kitchen helping cook food for guests.
- Worked on a flower nursery in New Zealand (involved in everything from weeding, planting, watering, picking, bunching, and also helping to construct/repair greenhouses and water tanks)
- My dissertation project involved spending time volunteering for an eco-community on the Isle of Erraid in Scotland. Tasks included gardening, cleaning, looking after the animals, and cooking
- Worked on a kiwi orchard (maintenance and pruning)
- Customer facing roles (suit fitting in a menswear store, and sales assistant at a supermarket)
- Studied various architecture modules at University.
