Description
Hi -
Summer 2021 was my first experience with the Workaway program and it was wonderful. I was introduced to a little bit of everything from picking green beans, herding cows, building a stick fence to feeding goats. Quite an experience for this city person. My hosts have all been fantastic and I have seen many beautiful places. My goal is to keep the the learning curve going through the Workaway program for the next few years.Interests

I retired and want to explore, travel, acquire different skills and enjoy new experiences. Basically I’m a city person with a background in administration (although I did work in archaeology and in a prison), a mom who raised three sons, and a grandma who crawls under kitchen tables to play with the grandkids. I like being outdoors and am pretty active- hiking, jogging, dancing, and playing pickle ball. I enjoy photography and am working on upgrading from amateur to intermediate. I’m hardworking and reliable, tend to be quiet at first, and have a good sense of humor. While working and raising a family, I volunteered at my sons’ schools and for their sports activities, at a food bank, Habitat for Humanity, and at special events for a winery. Workaway caught my attention because it offers an opportunity to give back, do things to benefit not only myself but others, and to challenge myself.
