Description
I have an undergraduate degree in Public Relations and Advertising. I worked in hospitality businesses such as Four Seasons Hotels, cruise boats, resorts and restaurants. I had a world trip between 2015-2019, worked and volunteered in several countries. I worked in grape farms, lavender farms, pruning, fruit picking, budding, taping and garden works in different countries. I like this kind of life and work style more than regular jobs. During the pandemic I saved money for my next trips. I have been on another world trip for 3 years. I am a real hard worker. I worked 12 hours shifts for a long time. I use Workaway to meet new cultures, to experience off grid life style and to travel. My dream is to live in the nature, grow plants, feed animals and hike long paths in the forest all my life.

It was a great experience to work in a California ranch. Jonathan and his mother hosted me well. It was a very comfortable place, the job was fun. I like the people who volunteered there. We ate together and watched movies in the evenings. They have beautiful cats and chickens. Thank you for everything John. I wish you the best !

I am so glad that I volunteered in Alexa&Naldo's farm. It's a very peaceful environment with 4 dogs, 2 cats and 40 chickens. The jungle view from the farm is amazing. The farm is located near the best spots of the river with waterfalls. There is no noise from the neighborhood or road. You will be surrounded with nature only. The best of all is… read more

Jules is the best host I have ever met. He is never like a boss. He is a very generous person who provides comfortable accommodation, free meals and even more. When I was at the farm, we had a great atmosphere with a lot of people from different countries and different abilities. We were having fun while working with the plants and animals. Every… read more

I stayed 2 and half months with Jai Sri. I learnt weed whack, cutting trees, planting, compost, animal care, painting, some basic construction, etc.. This farm is in the middle of beautiful destinations to visit. You can go to Kehena Beach, Shipman's Beach, Hot Ponds, Volcano National Park and Hilo easily from here. We were around 10 people… read more

I came to Clam Gulch after 2 years of stressful work in New Jersey. I was working with gamble addicts who were playing lottery all the time. All I heard was car sounds even when I was sleeping. When I started volunteering in Clam Gulch I started to see dreams after 2 years. Because there was no sound. Instead of gamblers I was spending my time… read more

can arrived from new jersey and was thrust into life in alaska during winter 2021

the learning curve was steep, but can stepped up to the challenge. he took on every task with aplomb and fit right in amongst the dogs. life here is physically demanding and can earned his membership in the "clam gulch gym".
