Description
Gabe McGee :
I'm currently employed full time on a regenerative mixed agroforestry farm in Asheville, North Carolina. I work with cattle, pigs, sheep and chickens. I have extensive work experience with farming, carpentry, construction, metal fabrication and landscaping.
I'm a thorough enjoyer of early mornings, love to work with my hands, and am always looking to adapt and apply myself in new ways!
I also have extensive experience running outdoor education programs. I am an avid photographer(film and digital) looking to capture new moments in new places. I also have experience in mixed media and social media content production. I'm passionate about surfing, playing music, snowboarding, backpacking, yoga, making art, metalsmithing, and exploring the natural world.
Gabriel and I have spent multiple summers in central and South America, contributing at workaways and sharing cultural experiences. We are experienced travelers, and open minded avid learners. I speak English and semi-fluent Spanish.
Gabriel Coll-Bettencourt :
Hello! I'm a passionate creator, traveler and lover of nature. I've been painting and making music since my childhood. My friends would consider me to be joy-full, exuberant, yet humble and calm when a situation calls for a more collected presence.
I'm fluent in English, Catalan and Spanish and hope to continue learning more languages.
Growing up, I helped my grandmother work on her farm in Brevard, NC; I have a great appreciation for living off of the land and feel passionate about hands-on work. I'm currently studying Music Technology at UNC Asheville in North Carolina, where I grew up as well. I love a broad range of musical practices, from R 'n B to Opera, but recently i've taken some courses and participated in several sound healing events.
My strong suits include: conflict resolution management, cooking/menu planning, language/interpretation, gardening work, art/media distribution and music production/writing.
My areas of growth include, but are not limited to: yoga/sustainable energy practices, over-working, carpentry, metal-working, and other machine-operation tasks. -
