Travelling

Activities i am interested in:

Currently i am travelling through Australia and setting my sights on Asia next, where i want to stay for a couple of months before returning back to Europe.
Description

Hi, my Name is Leo, I'm 29 years old, once living in Berlin, Germany, currently i have been traveling for close to three years and am currently in the West Coast of Australia.

I want to immerse myself in a more "simpler" lifestyle: being in and around nature, doing and learning handiwork like woodworking, taking care of animals and being engaged in helping the hosts and contributing to their community. In the beginning of my travel life i had an amazing Workaway experience in Norway, the delayed consequence of this being that i then quit my job, travelled two months through eastern Europe with Workaways, set off to New Zealand for a year did some Workaways there as well, went to Uruguay, Brazil, French Polynesia and Australia.

My interests are learning new knowledge and skills, finding out more about myself and to explore.

I'm organized, open to meet new people, eager to learn, humorous and knowledgable. I enjoy working in a team, but I'm also self reliant and can tackle tasks by myself.

Even if i don't have a certain skillset, i will certainly apply myself to the task at hand.
I deeply believe that as long as you are eager to learn, curious and engaged, you can be helpful and successful in succeeding at a certain task, even if you lack the "necessary" skills for it.

We spent a wonderful week with Nigel and Glenda and by the end wished we could have stayed longer!
We had our private room with an ensuite and amazing views of the adjacent mountains. The work was easy and varied, like picking up pine cones, gardening, landscaping, wood splitting and clearing vines. The time passed really quickly, the tasks were … read more

We stayed with Sophie and Eric for a week. We had a big house for ourselves with all of the amenities we could wish for. Our work was easy and varied, they made sure to suit the work to our capabilities.

Leo and his friend Juno stayed with me for just 4 days yet my house and garden was much the better for their visit! With fluent English and a great work ethic, these 2 completed a range of tasks from stacking wood, to pruning trees, from painting to housework, despite continuing rainy weather.
I would like to wish them all the best with their … read more

We only stayed with Janie for four days, but we wished it could have been longer. This is everything you would want from a Workaway: Janie is an amazingly welcoming host, who knows what it takes to make people feel comfortable; the work is varied, the accommodation is marvelous, with a comfortable bed and stunning ocean view; her meals are great, … read more

I stayed with Charity and her family for three weeks, over Christmas and New Years, which was a very special time for me. You'll be welcomed with open arms and the utmost generosity imaginable. Charity (and everyone for that matter) really want you to feel comfortable at their place and make sure that you have everything you need. You'll stay in a … read more

It might of course have something to do with chemistry, as you will always get a better connection with some people than others, but Leo's personality made him as close as you can get to a perfect house guest for us. His sincerity in becoming a natural part of our family, his participation in our daily routines, showing interest in the kids (and … read more
