ABOUT ME
I’m 31, easygoing and practical. I’m a carpenter and hands-on builder who enjoys working with wood, construction, maintenance and DIY projects.
I also have many years of experience in service (restaurants and catering), so I’m very comfortable working in hostels and guesthouses — with guests, daily tasks and keeping things running smoothly.
While traveling through Latin America, I’m looking for simple, honest exchanges for a few weeks — carpentry, maintenance, hostel work, or helping on farms and eco-projects.
