Description
Hi! My name is Finn, I'm 19 years old and I love to travel and see the world!
I'm from Canada, and grew up homeschooled my whole life, which has given me lots of opportunity to get out and experience new cultures, and meet new people.
I've traveled 10 countries so far, including: Canada, US, Mexico, Haiti, Sweden, New Zealand, England, Israel, Estonia, and Finland.
This is my first time on workaway, and would love to find some awesome places to spend the majority of my winter.
I know what living on the road with only a backpack for long periods of time can be like, so I certainly don't any fancy accommodation or have any reliance on other people to create the fun!
I'm self sufficient, tidy, and it's important to me that people are able to feel good about having me in their home! I've hosted many people from abroad, and appreciate when the people I host are conscientious and able to keep a space clean. That's what I'm hoping to replicate throughout my travels. Open and honest communication is very important to me, and I am welcoming of constructive criticism!Interests

The long answer:
This was my first workaway experience, and man was it great. I stayed here for a month, and the work environment, location, and facilities were all top notch.
