Description
Hi, I'm Adrian, I'm 25 years old and trying to fit as many adventures into life as possible! I love history and archaeology and literature and art, but I'm also keen on spending time in nature. Part of my reason for joining workaway is to try and get as much experience as I can with other cultures, and especially to see alternative ways of living.

Wow! I'm really stuck for words to describe this experience. Redouane is such a kind and open-hearted man, and went out of his way to show me around the village, the markets in the town, the old underground irrigation systems and even introduced me to a nomad family who had set up camp nearby-- I got to drink fresh camel mill and stroke baby… read more

I stayed for two weeks with Shaun in September, and during that time he could not have gone further out of his way to make me feel welcomed and included in the amazing community he's building in the Sabina.
