Description

Hi I'm Tye , new to this but hoping to get a lot out of it, I am a carpenter from the UK, more about that in the skills description. I'm looking forward to living and experiencing Jamaica, although i have visited a few times in my life before. I am excited to live and work in the Carribbean. I am interested in learning about sustainable living, exploring different cultures, getting the most out of this experience, I'm a quick learner who's always happy to take every job and task enthusiastically, more than happy helping out with anything needed from a host and volunteering any way I can. Looking forward to being accepted into your world and the sharing of experiences and cultures. Every new experience is greatly appreciated. Thankyou for reading.

More details about your skills

I am a self employed carpenter, I can do a whole range of jobs in this field from kitchen fittings to roofing and everything in between. I have really enjoyed getting to specialise in older buildings over the last few years when I can. But new properties are no problem at all, being in the trade for so many years now I have picked many skills along the way. I won't bore you with the list unless you are interested, please don't hesitate to ask

We've loved hosting Tye. An inspiring guy who fitted into our way of life very well. He's super respectful and very appreciative. His chilled take on life was refreshing. We loved the calmness and dry sense of humour that he bought to our home. The help he was able to give us was gold. Tye was able to solve the long running problems we've had with … read more

I very much enjoyed my time with Mike and a great work away experience overall, Mike's vision for his land and home was to say the very least impressive, I admire his work ethic in bringing the dream alive , it really opened my eyes to see how much the area has changed through his efforts and how much progress you can make with permaculture when … read more

Tye joined me for three weeks, not long after he arrived in the country. He's a very chill bloke who is friendly, adaptable and fits in well with others - he soon established a strong report with the two other guys that overlapped with much of his time here. It was good to have a few small construction jobs waiting in the wings for him, as I got … read more
