Description

Hey y’all, my name is Jekabs. I love meeting new people and learning about different cultures. Workaway seems like a perfect place for that. I really like to help people, so if there’s anything I can do to make things easier or bring a bit of positive energy, I’m always happy to jump in.

I enjoy working with my hands, learning new skills, and being part of a team. Whether it’s helping around the house, doing outdoor work, or getting involved in creative projects, I’m always up for a challenge. I love being outdoors, connecting with nature, and sharing good conversations over a nice meal.

More details about your skills

Cooking – I love cooking for myself and my family. It’s one of my biggest passions, and I truly enjoy creating delicious meals for others.

Physical tasks – I’m a young and strong guy who enjoys working out, so if you need an extra hand with any physical work, I’m more than happy to help.

Construction – My dad, brother, and I built our family home without any outside help, so I have hands-on experience working on construction projects.

For me learning new skills is an experience itself. I am always happy to help as long as we respect each other. See you soon:)

Staying with Ade was so cool. I helped her mom with the farm and few basic house tasks. She cooked some delicious meals, showed me around and overall was a good company. I really appreciated that. Best of luck and see you again:)

Jekabs was a great guy who helped me with eco-construction tasks, reforestation activities, and the pea harvest. He’s a good hand, and he knows how to adapt even in the remote mountain areas. Thanks again — I wish you the best on your journey.

It was a pleasure to help Clement. He has a very interesting project going on and I was happy to be part of it. We stayed in the farm for a few days and that was such an unique experience. Clement is a cool guy. Best of wishes:)
