Description
Hi this is Solas and Theo, we are two American high school seniors who are taking a gap year and want to travel the world before returning to school in the states in Fall 2020. We spent 6 weeks last summer travelling western Europe through Spain, France, Belgium, and the Netherlands. Traveling together bonded us, and inspired a strong passion for travel that we didn't know we had. Seeing Europe together made us want to expand our horizons to different countries of the world and experience their cultures; this is exactly what attracts us to Workaway.
We both are very adventurous, outgoing, and easy to work with. We love meeting new people, trying new things, and will eat any food put in front of us! We both speak Spanish, however Solas has spent a significant amount of time in Spain and is more adept in the language, we both are very excited to practice and improve our speaking skills. We both one day hope to be fluent and learn other languages all over the world.
We are new to Workaway and can't wait to start travelling!

I had an amazing stay here and Evelyn and their 4 year old son Santino. From the first day I arrived they treated me like family, we ate all our meals together (the food was excellent) and I learned a lot about the culture of Chiloe island and also some gardening skills.

En nuestro hogar solo compartimos con Solas, quien es un joven muy agradable y simpático, con muy buena disposición a trabajar y siempre atento a las necesidades de la casa.
Solas es muy proactivo, amable, trabajador, curioso y definitivamente un excelente representante de workaway, definitivamente lo extrañaremos.

Solas is hardworker, attentive and is always smiling. He helped us with everything: cooking, cleaning, working on the vineyard, translating a document and also in the green garden. Was always eager to learn or do something different and made sure to do it right.
Theo's inner child is still alive, and, along with his sensitivity, allowed him to… read more
