Description
I have just graduated from studying film in Bournemouth, UK, but have a keen interest in the outdoors. Growing up I would regularly hike and free camp in Snowdonia in North Wales. I attended an arts university and regularly draw as well as experimenting in other mediums such as film photography, watercolour painting and 3D art and animation.
I speak English and would be willing to do some language exchange. I am fairly fit, so can help with any physical work as well as art projects or any other work that needs doing.
In my spare time, I like Hitchhiking and Rock Climbing as well as walking in the mountains and swimming in nature.

I stayed with Bea for three weeks in October. For the first week that I was there, there happened to be the Origin In Bones festival taking place; a performance festival celebrating 100 years. I filmed the event and edited it into a promotional video for Bea, which was a very good experience. The festival as a whole was great, with lots of… read more

Unfortunately, I was only able to stay with Milka, Marcin, Lena and Jas for one week, but it was such an incredible time. This is a very special family who I feel honored to have stayed with, even for such a short period of time. Both of the children are far more intelligent and full of character than any kids of their age that I have met before,… read more

i often dont accept people of such a young age to volunteer up here but am really happy that we took a chance on Jakob.

Not your typical 18-year-old lad., he was kind and conscientious and happy to get stuck into a range of jobs.
I think it was right out of his comfort zone to come here alone, but he did brilliantly.

As well as the usual… read more

I only got to stay with Fay and Jonny for a week, however to say a lot happened in that time would be a massive understatement. My main job was burying a water pipe that ran from the river to supply water to the taps, showers etc... After two days of burying it, it was dug up by a neighbor, so we had to start again.
Aside from annoying neighbors,… read more
