Description
Hi everyone my name is Joe, I'm a 34 year old guy who is on a big trip around south/Central America . I'm really hoping to work with different people and learn and see a different side of life. I'm a very laid back individual who is easy to get along with and will have a go at anything you may require of me. I love surfing and enjoy music, animals, nature, cooking and growing vegetables. On my travels I look for unique and interesting projects to work on and try to challenge myself in areas I’m not so comfortable with. Thanks for reading my profile and looking forward to working with you.
Kind Regards
Joseph

I had a very good time with Pablo and Consuelo. They arranged very last minute for me to stay with them and I was incredibly greatful for this. I helped with their house and it was the first time for me to see how a place is made using natural materials so for me it was quite interesting to see this style of building. I’m sure it’s going to look… read more
