Description
Some things that motivate me in my daily life are making art, i love to draw and paint but never sought out any additional education due to finances. I would love to have space to work on furthering my craft while simultaneously helping play a role in a community or household.
Some less interpersonal things that motivate me are acquiring new sets of knowledge and skills. I love to gain perspective into other peoples lives and firmly believe there is something to be learned from everyone. With this program I am very interested in beginning my journey to becoming more self sustainable and to get firsthand experience in how to execute permaculture in different environments and terrains. I am not skilled in this but it is something i am very eager to get involved in and start the process.
Although i do not have a car, i have stuck with a minimalistic, and transient lifestyle and dont have many belongings besides art supplies. I am resourceful and have saved money to be able to sustain traveling.

That's what happened . the debris clean up is almost done at least what hit the ground now. that was unusual work because of an unusually bad ice storm. The more laid back kind of normal work was not possible with that emergency . There are are a lot more waterfalls and trails that are amazing there . we tried for beacon rock and I would have… read more

I stayed with Lex for a few weeks in February and had a great experience. I was mostly helping clean up all sorts of debris off his property due to all the Ice storms over the winter. He always made sure that i was well fed or taking a break if i had been going at it for too long. On the few nice days he even made it a point to drop me off at some… read more

I spent just a little bit over two months with the family and it was an excellent experience. It was my first time being away from home for both Thanksgiving and Christmas and they really made me feel completely welcomed.

Pete's a really sweet person. We really worked him beyond what he was used to here. The best thing was how he responded. He really challenged himself every day while he was here, and we're very appreciative for that.

I think his best quality is that once you set the expectations, he takes initiative to make sure he's meeting those… read more

This was my first Workaway experience, and first time experiencing the desert and it was incredible. I stayed for a few days shy of two weeks and the space that they have created was breathtaking. I have never been to any type of place like this in my life, it is truly incredible and inspiring to see what they have built for themselves and are… read more
