Description

Hiii :)

You can call me Ahmed or Ash. I am Palestinian Jordanian. I thought I’d make my profile organized so it is easier to read…


🌠Intentions...
While browsing my gallery to add personal pictures to my Workaway I realized that most of my recent pictures are too urbanized and that I miss my 'earthy' self. Now, I am finally ready to pursue my passion for volunteering and cultural exchange in an attempt to do something meaningful, and understand myself better.

🌠Background...
My background is in Electrical Engineering, and I'll be continuing my studies in neuroengineering later. I recently quit my full-time job and started teaching English online.
I have volunteered for two farms where I worked on projects like building a nursery for native trees after wildlife fires; making chocoloate; pruning and taking care of different fruit trees; grafting; and building a little cat shelter.
I also participated in cultural exchange programs multiple times in different states of the US (Colorado, Alaska, New Jersey, Virginia) where I worked as a receptionist in hotels. I also volunteered for the 988 suicide prevention hotline.

🌠Interests...
✔️Hiking, camping, and being outdoors. I feel the safest when nestled in the mountains.
✔️Animals! I have always loved animals and dreamt about taking care of them. Unfortunately I grew up in a city, but I am chasing this dream now... Btw, I have sweet spot for insects and earthworms.
✔️Wildlife conservation. I have always been passionate about it and want to bring this passion to reality through volunteering.
✔️Sustainability and homesteading. This is a lifelong dream of mine! I want to learn how to garden, take care of animals, and maintain a homestead.
✔️Cooking. I would love to cook for you and maybe come up with new dishes. Also, I make good bread :)
✔️Learning and teaching new things.
✔️Meaningful conversations.
✔️Being active, and eating healthy. I just started calisthenics and yoga, and will always be down to make healthy food.
✔️Different forms of art.

🌠Current goals...
✔️Learning Spanish
✔️Teaching English/Arabic
✔️Getting my hands dirty, getting closer to animals, and learning how to garden.
✔️Exploring Central/South America
