Description
I like to discover new places. At the end of 2023 I travelled across the west coast of the USA. Amazing trip where I took in Seattle, Portland, Denver, Utah, Arizona, Nevada and California. Saw beautiful landscapes, open terrain with sprawling deserts and met amazing people along the way.

From early 2023 till summer, I travelled to British Columbia, where I checked out all the province had to offer while meeting great friends and discovering unreal sights and scenery. I travelled to Vancouver Island, explored the interior and also during my travels saw more of the country with Calgary and Winnipeg added to my list.

In 2022 I visited Iceland and toured around the south of the island in a camper van. I met locals and tourists around Reykjavik and saw amazing landscapes and sites.

I like to travel and meet people from different countries and explore.

Had a great stay at the hostel in the Wicklow mountains. It was a very accepting hostel and when I arrived in December I met a multi-national volunteer group who were very welcoming and helpful in tasks given and cooperated greatly. The staff of Fatima, Paola and Ross were kind and helpful too giving clear instructions in different tasks and… read more

It was a pleasure having Micheal stay with us. We had a lot in common, and really enjoyed getting to know him. He was also a great worker with two projects while he was here; re-flashing a roof and building stone steps. We'd have him back any time.

An absolute pleasure staying with Sean and Ingrid at their house near Boston. Had a wonderful time discovering the area and local spots to see. Sean was good about the tasks he wanted to complete and organised what materials he wanted. Also we were blessed with nice weather and completed his trail steps and flashing for his deck which was nice to… read more

Michael was a great volunteer. He is very upbeat and sociable and he works really hard. Whether screening soil, processing firewood, moving stones, or clearing brush, Michael always did a fantastic job. It was really nice to have him stay with me and to get to know him. I would definitely recommend Michael to other hosts.

Had the pleasure of spending time at Seans round house near kawartha lakes. He was very responsive and picked me up in Peterborough. I was lucky enough at the time to share duties with a workaway couple which was great to get tasks done and to hang out as well. The work was outdoors which was nice as the weather was still good. We got to use the… read more

This was an amazing workaway. From start to finish I enjoyed the surrounding countryside and area around the resort. Alain was a great host who collected me from the nearest town and communicated greatly too as to what tasks he wanted completed. I was lucky to work and spend time with fellow workawayers which made the experience enjoyable. I found… read more

Michael was an exceptional Workaway and we are happy to recommend him. He arrived when our Home was busy with a family wedding but he settled in well by moving sleeping accommodations as needed. His skill with a chain saw was appreciated as we are still working on cleaning up after a hurricane from 2 years ago. He assisted by brother in their… read more

Michael (pronounced Mee-Haul) is a really wonderful human. He is very kind, attentive and is lovely to be around. He cared for my home and sweet doggies for 2 weeks while I was out of the country and did an excellent job while he was here. He also did a great job teaching the next workawayer everything they needed to know to keep my pets and house… read more

Jennifer was a great host after asking if she would let me stay at her cottage. She had posted that she need a house and dog sitter and I helped with chores around the house and some diy projects.

Rivkah and Zorro were the perfect hosts to explore the south shore and the coast just outside Halifax. Rivkah was great in giving me tasks and projects to do at her cottage.
