Description

Hi! I am a nature-lover who enjoys meeting people, experiencing different cultures and learning new skills. I have lived and worked in 10 countries and have traveled to ~60 countries, I have enjoyed all these experiences and was lucky to learn about so many different cultures and ways of viewing life.

I really enjoy doing workaways, I have learnt a lot, acquired new skills and gained many ideas. I am very interested in learning about sustainable living and in particular would love to learn about carpentry and building as I hope to build my own house one day. I love animals, I would love to learn more about caring for them and also learn how to grow my own food.

I like working with my hands and keeping busy, and have often been described as a reliable and independent worker. I hope to be able to contribute something wherever I go.

This was and I suspect will continue to be the best Workaway I've ever done. It did not feel like a Workaway at all, it felt like visiting family if one had an amazing family living in the mountains in an amazing place surrounded by amazing people and happy animals, in an amazing village. John made me feel so comfortable right away, going above … read more

She brought calm energy, curiosity, kindness and many nice conversations into our everyday life. She helped with all kinds of tasks without complaining and adapted quickly to a simple rural lifestyle.
What we will remember most is not only the work she did but the feeling that she truly enjoyed being here, spending time together, sharing stories, … read more

Pecka is a special place surrounded by beautiful nature, interesting people and super cute pets, but best of all is the Pecka family - Boro, Pedja, Snejza, Gosha who are all so kind and warm. Its really amazing to see what Boro has built over the last 10 years, from an abandoned old building to a beautiful visitor center aiming to show how … read more

What an amazing experience, I have loved all my Workaway experiences but this might be my favourite hosts. I love this family so much. They're a really warm and kind family, always joking and laughing with each other. Mustafa is a very kind, gentle and caring man, who is also very funny, always joking. Eysa and me talked about food for hours and … read more

This was my first workaway experience and I could not have asked for a better one. Initially, I had planned to stay for 1 week but it didn't take me long to feel that I was in a very special place. So I stayed an extra day....and another.....and another....2 weeks later I had to leave to catch my flight but I have never really let go of this … read more
