  • Description

    Hello friends! Thank you so much for taking the time to read my profile. I'm so excited to meet all you lovely, interesting people! I’ve been living a nomadic life since graduating with my Bachelor’s in 2023 (Biology Major). My employment is usually contract/seasonal – I’ve done a little of everything from working as a helmsman on the Mississippi River, to adventure guiding in Alaska. I absolutely love this lifestyle because the positions offer incredible adventures in and of themselves and they allow me time to travel abroad for several months out of the year.

    I have really enjoyed Workaway because it offers a much more immersive and rich experience than opting for typical tourist accommodation. I love that it gives me the opportunity to contribute to the places I visit and build genuine connections with locals/my hosts. I have a wide range of skills and experiences to bring to the table, as well as a very strong work ethic, so I’m sure we can find some projects to make my stay worthwhile for you! You can also rest assured that I am a very positive, easy-going, drama-free kind of person that intends to be a very clean and respectful houseguest.

    I can’t wait to become emersed into your world; to become familiar with your culture, way of life, and unique perspectives.

    More details about my language interests
    I've been focusing on improving my Spanish for the past year, but recently started learning various Asian languages because I'll be touring Asia over the next few months. I'm fluent in English and more than happy to help others with learning it.
