Description
We are a Guyanese-Russian creative couple that had been living on the Catalunya land for the last 6 years and now we are ready for a new adventure!
We are deep art lovers - we express ourselves in all ways that we find excitement in along our life journey - it extends from digital art, blockchains to creating food and building businesses and building natural art pieces with our bare hands.

First and foremost, we are entrepreneurs, and we enjoy building brands businesses that support conscious evolution in the world.

We currently have several brands to support out work as artists, including ceramics, fashion, physical and digital art, conscious events, educational workshops, vegan cooking and baking with local unique ingredients.

We love building businesses and brands, that support creators to live and work on their own terms. We would love our workaway journey to support artists and creators, and builders, people creating.

For us workaway is not about free accommodation, we are commiting to a way of life of CREATORS and of showing its possible to live life on your own terms, we want our journey to be a testament of this. We want to work with people that are passionate, committed and aware of that spark of divinity within themselves. We want to spend our moments co-creating, learning as well as sharing the experience we have gained in hopes of being a bridge across the mistakes of building businesses we have experienced.

If there is something inside that reacts positively to these words then perhaps we are meany to create something great together.

Left by Workawayer (Anthony Colin & Anna) for host (Help at our beautiful ...)

Words will not do justice to my first work away experience. Everything about my experience felt special, I felt welcomed by the whole family, including pets and other workawayers straight away. My job while there was to complete the plastering of one of the cave houses, I appreciate that I was given the trust to work independently, after being… read more shown how to do the work. I worked 5 hours a day, in exchange I got the opportunity to experience the various different accommodations on the finca, all under the stars and surrounded by nature. I had to opportunity to share in feeding the animals, and in understanding the challenges and rewards of having an off grid life. I really enjoyed our meals together, the love and energy of the kids, the trust to be independent in my work and the challenges of working in an environment very different from the city. I learned a lot, laughed a lot, ate great food, worked hard and enjoyed the spectacular sunrises, sunsets, starry nights and literally being in the clouds.

This is a beautiful family with 3 quickly growing and very intelligent kids, so maturity and respect are useful skills to be able to have a harmonious experience for all.Remember that as well as a business it is important to give the family space just for them. Independence is Important, as well as flexibility, the off grid life requires problem solving and a willingness to learn and help.

In one sentence - be an assest, leave a positive footprint, and be present while you are here, and you may just have a life changing experience.

Thanks to Anne-Claire and Ivan for welcoming me as part of your family, and for helping my understanding of so many things to evolve just from the example of your life.

Thanks to the kids, for your love, and welcome and open and honest conversations and exchanges we shared. For all the drawing I have received.

Thanks esme for inspiring me love of art even more and for encouraging me to draw more.

Thanks to the pets for reminding me what nature is, the love and affections, and wildness.

To my fellow workawayers for being a family with me, the talks, the meals, the coffees, and the shared stories and of our unusual life lived so far.

As I said, my words still don’t do justice, but thanks for the experience.

To future workawayers, if you have the chance to work here, take in each moment with gratitude and use the opportunity to expand your mind and way of thinking about life, you may leave with much more than you expect.

Love,

Ant x
