Description

Hola a todos! My name is Audrey, and I’m a traveller from the United States (Boston), on my way to Colombia. I plan to spend five months traveling through South America, working on farms, practicing my Spanish, and making new friends from around the world!

I’m excited to learn more about agriculture/permaculture in different parts of the world, and I’m seeking hosts who value community, are excited to share new skills with me, y por supuesto querrían ayudarme con español :)

I’ve previously done work-exchanges on farms in New Zealand and Chile. In New Zealand, I lived with a family for 2.5 months, was a nanny for three children, and helped with daily farm chores on a 60,000 acre sheep and cattle ranch. In Chile, I spent 3 weeks working on a farm in the vegetable garden, collecting eggs, and helping with a small tourism business. I always love getting to be a part of someones home and experiencing different cultures, and through my work exchanges I have made life long friends.

I grew up in a city but I love to adventure, and have lived in remote and wilderness locations (at times without running water or electricity), so I am comfortable in rustic/rural settings. I also spent a year living in my self converted car visiting national parks in the western USA. I worked as a climate activist for many years and recently worked for a glacier-tourism company in Alaska.

Some more of my interests include: hiking/running outside, swimming, singing and playing guitar, making art, cooking and baking, playing card games

Hola, mucho gusto! Estoy aprendiendo español, y ahora mi nivel es intermedio. Empesé aprendiendo español este octubre pasado, y tomé clases por cinco semanas en una escuela en Xela, Guatemala. Fue una expeiriencia muy divertido, y vivía con una familia allí. Estoy emocionada para practicar más durante mi tiempo en Colombia y espero que avancar mi nivel. Para mi es mas facil para hablar que escribir, entonces vamos a hablar en linea y ver si mi nivel es suficiente para ustedes :)
