Description
Hey, my name is Jesús. I am from Pamplona (Spain) and i am 35 years old.
In the last 5 years I worked in a company dedicated to the automotive area. I worked as a machinist in a mechanical press. In my job, we manufacture flat plate steel pieces for cars. I am mechanical engineer, although i didn't work as engineer, but i liked my job, i did my eight hours and that's it.
My great passion, without any kind of doubt, is going hiking with my backpack for several days. I have done some hikes in Spain, such as "El camino de Santiago", which is very popular in the entire world. I love the Pyrenees (the mountain range there is between Spain and France), I have crossed it two times, both starting from the Mediterranean sea and end it in the Atlantic Ocean.
The reason i love backpacking is because it helps me to disconnect from my everyday life. Here, in the west countries, many times i have the feeling that everything goes extremely fast. We barely have time to think, reflect about ourselves. And despite we have, in general, far more than we need (material things), i don't think we are very happy.
So these hikes, are perfect to think, and i have decided to take a couple of years off (or maybe more) in order to travel.
To begin, I would like to go to Asia.

I spent 7 days with Yuji and his three lovely children on his farm en Sasayama. Sasayama is a calm village surrounded by nature and mountains. It is just perfect to walk around.
Regarding the work, there wasn't anything specific to do. It was just helping him with the house, watching and playing with his sons, weeding the rice field and sometimes… read more

I spent two weeks with Nils and his family, two weeks that went very fast.
The place where they live is just impressive, sorrounded by nature and big mountains. I had the chance to go to the northern Alps a couple of times, it was totally worth it. So if you like hiking, nature and calmness, this is where you should come.
Nils and his wife Saki… read more

Jesus was a hard worker! He did very well in the heat of the Japanese summer. He helped with numerous projects around the house. He was kind with my family and very accommodating. He had no problem fitting into the daily life of rural Japan. He also has been to some great places!

Jesus came to help at our house in the toughest time of Mongolian spring when we restart all the work after the winter break. He has shown his resilience to difficult conditions - cold, wind, no water etc. His engineering skills were precious in fixing our water system, washing machine etc. He also helped our friend fix his laser machine.

I spent almost 3 weeks with Agata and Tamir. Almost 3 weeks that went very fast. Since the first moment they were very friendly and kind with me, which I appreciated.
Agata, Tamir and their lovely child arrived one day before than me after spending the winter in Europe. Hence there was a lot of work to do. At that time there were also two friends… read more

What a pleasant experience lived with Bee and her family!
I spent 6 days with them living in their two gers: one on the outskirts of Ulaanbaatar and the other closer to the city center. The gers are the traditional Mongolian houses in which there are a series of rules that must be respected. The lifestyle is simple and humble. But from the first… read more

Our Jesus lived with our Mongolian family in 10-15th March, 2023 to share his love and to meet Gher life culture.
We really liked to feel his love to a long walk trip and visit to different nature and culture. He gave his heart and hands to our family daily works, bring water, cut woods, bring branches from mountain, and make a bone cleaning for… read more

I was with Pee Nee at her farm a bit less than 2 weeks, which went by super fast. At all times, both Nee and his family were very kind and close to me, which I was very grateful for. His daughter Chuchae (sorry I don't know how to write it) is lovely. From time to time I played with her and I really liked it.
As for the work I did, I had to repair… read more

I'll start by saying that my intention was to stay there about 3 weeks but it ended up being 6. There, with Mekh and his family in Hatemalochowk, somehow I felt like I had a purpose, which made my stay there very bearable and pleasant.
The same day I arrived, Mekh told me about the possibility of going to a school as a teacher, and that is where I… read more

My "workaway" experience started with Nischal and his family in Nepal. I can't say anything bad at all about my stay there. At all times both he and his family were very kind to me.
During my stay there I was able to enjoy the celebration of two festivities, becoming a part of them, which was great.
I would not like not to mention the other… read more
