Description
In a dream world I would adore living in nature, a forest or in the mountains, building my own home and growing my own food. Living a sustainable life. I always said I wanted to live in a cave with a dog and a goat. That may one day happen but for now I am travelling as much as possible, meeting new people, learning about different cultures, witnessing unreal landscapes. There is so much to see. So much beauty.
I generally love hiking and being in nature, this is when I feel my best. I love creating things. I love being immersed in fiction. I love animals. I dislike writing these profiles about myself.

More details about your skills
I built the interior of my mini camper car out of scrap wood. I am by no means professionally skilled but it looks good and I enjoyed doing it. I dabble with DIY projects at home. Painting, building things, laying floor. All self taught.
The 12v electrics for my car needed doing so I did that. Again self taught.
Im creative so any arts and crafts like painting, drawing, sewing, etc.
Outdoor work, any sort of labour work, I will do as far as my strength will allow.
I worked for a year in Australia on different types of farms. Mangoes, beans and bananas. Picking, packing and sorting.
Age
38
What else ...
I'm very into playing games, cards, boardgames, anything really. I'm crazed about dogs. I'd enjoy some experience working at an animal shelter. I eat a vegetarian diet.

Sean is a perfect workawayer, quick to help with whatever asked, multi-skilled and very willing to try new things and learn, easy to get along with, polite, thoughtful, clean, and has a fun sense of humor and way about her. We enjoyed her time with us and she is welcome back anytime. She helped enclose the bottom of our chicken coop and put a door… read more

It was so much fun to have Sian here! She helped us with some house painting projects, and we spent a lot of time together watching holiday movies, playing board games, and answering would-you-rather questions. Her sense of humor is delightfully weird and she's very fun to talk to. She is also a tea-drinking fiend! Sian felt like one of the family… read more

Sian is a pleasure to have around. She has a great sense of humor and is always happy to help with different projects. She knows more fun card games than the average prisoner learns throughout a lifetime of prison. Not that she was in prison, she just knows a whole lot of fun card games. If you want a considerate and fun workawayer, I recommend… read more

Sian's a lovely volunteer to have around. Her free spirit and playful energy shines through in both work and play. She's passionate and thoughtful about dogs, and she an excellent member of a team, as she knows how to collaborate in a productive and positive way. We can highly recommend Sian to other hosts, and we'd be glad to host her again… read more

Collaborating with Sian was a lovely and memorable experience. She's dependable, an excellent communicator, and a hard-worker. She was also an excellent help with taking care of 10 puppies I unexpectedly took on. She was a loving life-saver with them.

Oh, and she loves cheesy romantic comedies. I'll never forget suffering through that awful… read more
