Description
I understand Workaway as a bridge to people's hearts, and their dreams. A space to communicate , approach different cultures and communities through solidarity, productivity, respect , and hard work...
Related to that,I remember our social club in my small village when I was a kid.
we used to clean roads, plant trees, make juice from fruits to support our projects..
Since then , I'm almost to social work, from a store clerk with ( tenthousandvillages.ca) to administrative work with (chaudronweb.org )...
Finally, after several years as a financial adviser ( SFL Desjardins ), and an account manager with two major Canadian telecommunication companies ( TELUS.COM & Rogers.com ) , I found that this style of living isn't capturing me anymore !
I do believe that ,in the world of climate change, nature and local communities are the truth.
It is always good to communicate.
Have a great day !
Sam

Sam is a very open minded person, easy communicated and interesting traveller. we talk a lot together about building, gardening etc.
He is a nice person, but he had his own way of life in my house.

This is our very first workaway experience and we have been a little disorganized because we have not yet managed to understand all the subtleties of the concept.
