Description

Hello!

I’m Adam from Cumming, GA, currently a 3rd year student at the University of Pennsylvania studying finance and English. My hobbies include gardening, surfing, writing, and staying active through working out.

I’m taking a gap semester from January to June 2024 to pursue my passion for travel and cultural immersion. Meeting fellow travelers and exploring local traditions deeply motivates me.

I've always had a travel bug in me, and even worked for a travel agency this past summer!

Though new to Workaway, I have substantial experience with WWOOF, having worked on over five farms in Hawaii, Colorado, and Arizona. My skills range from agricultural work to home renovations. I’ve renovated two houses and built & managed a hydroponic greenhouse, producing over 200 crops weekly. At college, I further honed my farming skills and, in Hawaii, I worked on a sustainable farm in Oahu’s North Shore. My time in Arizona was spent on a goat farm, where I learned about animal husbandry and making goat cheese!

Traveling is a significant part of my life. During COVID, I embarked on a van life adventure across the U.S for 5 months, visiting major national parks and gaining priceless experiences.

After my gap semester, I'm headed back to New York to invest in emerging tech companies and complete my final year of college.
