    Travelling

  • Description

    I've been a nomadic seasonal worker and van life traveler for the last 4 years. I love working outdoors and in national parks and seek enchanting sites to be stationed at each season. I enjoy working with youth populations, as well as alongside other outdoorsy people, and those passionate about the environment, conservation education, adventure and more. I'm passionate about having jobs that help me leave the world a better place than when I found it. I've come to love seasonal work as a way to travel while getting long enough in one place to be immersed in the culture and expansiveness of the area, hoping to feel like I am fully getting to experience and understand a place . I'm interested in hiking, camping, art, music, plants and gardening of all kinds, conservation projects, place based learning, teaching, and growing community. My partner August and I will be traveling together and share our eco conscious values and passion for working and living in nature, while bringing different interests and well rounded skills to the table.
