Description
Hello,
My name is Gaia, I'm from Israel. recently I finished working at a TV station as a video editor, now I'm travelig in a home-van, wishing to meet new people, help with inspiring projects and especially see and feel nature.
I have a film making degree, and I'm also a photographer so apart from farming and physical work I can offer my services gladly. I really like to work physically, I want to learn by doing all about permaculture, eco-building, carpentry, cheese making, herbalism, renovating, maintanance etc.
I am a pretty quiet person for sure but I like to share space in pleasant company.
I speak English, Hebrew and just started learning Spanish, so if you are interested we can practice language exchange as well.
I would love to have conversations, hear about your experiences, learn from your type of habitat and support your dreams of creation in your space. I enjoy genuine meetings so much. This is a big reason for my traveling.
I'll be happy to meet (:

Gaia is an asset to any project. She is sweet and kind and gentle and a great worker. Though she sometimes lacks confidence, her work was flawless and I was very grateful to have her help me in the month of May 2019. She turned her hand to anything I asked of her and always did a great job. I wish her every success for the future.

It was a pleasure to have Gaya with us for a few weeks. Not only is she a demon at backgammon but she also carried out every task requested of her with enthusiasm and consideration. She also helped out with the cleaning and cooking, making delicious vegetarian food for us all. Gaya didn't come prepared for Spring weather in the mountains but she… read more

Amazing experience!
Already from the email conversation I figured Dean is a very nice and funny guy. Dean picked me up and my friend from Granada the day we arrived, and I stayed at his place for 2 weeks. First of all, the house is amazingly beautiful, in the middle of a magical forest, surrounded by waterfalls and green landscapes. The serenity… read more

Gaya is a very hard worker. She is very good at being very thorough and her attention to detail is admirable. Gaya will put her mind to any project and can work without supervision. I would not hesitate to have Gaya stay with me again. Highly recommended.
