Our next destination:
Costa Rica - from Jul 2022 until Aug 2022 View allDescription
My name is Chris Lampe and I am most recently from Steamboat Springs, Colorado. I am a big skier, hiker, mountain biker, and climber. Just this past year (2021) I hiked from Mexico to Canada along the Continental Divide Trail. I have worked for 7ish years building homes with Habitat for Humanity in Denver, Colorado. I most recently was a snowmaker and facilities maintenance technician for Steamboat Ski Resort in Colorado, USA. In 2011, I lived in Toledo, Spain for 10 weeks and grew rather proficient in the Spanish language. I have also done 6 workaways in Chile, Ecuador, and Colombia where my Spanish continued to improve. I just got back from Costa Rica where I worked on a project not affiliated with workaway, but with a host I met at a workaway in Colombia. There, I met Jazmin, and this would be her first Workaway experience.
