Description
Hello! My name is Jakub. I am 24 years old guy from the Czech Republic, who wants to learn about (not only) sustainability and buildings through workaway.
For the past few years I have lived in Denmark where I have studied a bachelor degree as an Architectural Technologist. Along the way I have learned a lot by living abroad. Right now I have returned back to my home country to work in architectural office, however I still feel like I would like to travel to learn more about the world and acquire some practical skills.
My big interest are buildings and sustainability, and all the nitty gritty technical details in a house.
And I also think that it is improtant to build sustainably to improve our environment and I'd love to focus more on that in the future.
I also love photography and documenting the world around me in differnet shades of grain. Doesn't matter if its old analog or a new digital camera. If it can
capture photos I will try to use it and run around all day to capture few good photos.
When I was a teenager I used to spend a lot of time outside in a hiking club (similar to scout) where I have developed a relationship to nature. Since then I like to put on a heavy backpack and carry it from place to place, not forgetting my old metal camera dangling around my neck :)
Besides that, I also like art, music, collecting ceramic cups, drinking tea, journaling or just doodling. Just trying to find different ways to be present.
I joined workaway because I find it a great way travel more intentionally. I would like to meet people who live in a unique, sustainable ways, close to nature. I'd love to gain some real experience with building, renovation, and sustainable living, but I am also open to activities like gardening or farming. I dont mind any physical work - whether it's carrying boulders, chopping wood, helping in the garden, maintenance around the house or just cooking.
I am curious, positive and responsible person, always ready to lend a hand and to learn something new. I also have some experiences with volunteering,
from my participation in hiking clubs or my previous two workaways.
I'd love to hear about your projects and see how I can help - feel free to reach out.
Jakub :)

During his stay he cooked simple but tasty food and did heavy, physical garden work. He did a lot of digging, moving heavy stones around the garden and leveled a piece of land for us. All of this was done in a high sun, but he worked without complaining.
