Description
Hi all! I'm a hardworking, outdoor-loving traveler. I've had a fairly international upbringing (I'm from the US, but my father is Turkish and I lived in South America for a time) and am excited to continue living internationally. I now work part time online as a teacher for kids aged 12-18, and in all my free time I explore new places and meet new people. My hobbies include all outdoor sports/activities (especially hiking, camping, and biking), anything related to food, music (I sing and play a little piano), and art (crochet and water color paint). I'm passionate about the outdoors and have some experience in agriculture which I hope to continue building upon. I have a degree in cell biology and have worked as a field ecologist, so I am definitely happiest among plants and bugs. I love connecting with new people, exchanging stories, languages, and recipes, and hope I get the chance to do that with you and your community!

Sorry this is such a late review! My partner and I had a lovely three weeks on Flores with Marina, Metello, and Morgan (back in May 2023!). The work was exciting and varied everyday, always something related to the garden or keeping the house tidy. Usually we did the work somewhat independently after Marina gave great instructions. The best part… read more

I had the loveliest two weeks with Lotta, Jens, and the girls. The work was largely helping care for the horses and a couple farm projects mixed in with helping around the house whenever possible. I loved spending my free time in their beautiful garden and hanging out with the family. Great experience

Thank you, Jens and Lotta! Until next time :)

El tiempo que pasé en el hotel fue un tiempo genial e inigualable. Cada día estaba rodeada de gente hermosa y trabajando en cosas divertidas. Aprendí muchísimo en la cocina al lado de los chicos y el dueño, Alexis, y pase los fines de semana disfrutando de los varios espectáculos que se realizaron en el hotel. La ubicación es la mejor que se puede… read more

Mis dos semanas ahí fueron inolvidables. El trabajo es duro, divertido, y variado y la compañía es increíble. Cada día, mañana hasta noche la pasamos riéndonos y compartiendo muy lindos momentos.

We cooked together, painted handcraft things.… read more

I just left Binnur and my lovely little Urla yesterday and I am already planning to return as soon as possible, hopefully later this year! Binnur opened her home and her heart to me during the two weeks I stayed with her and I could not be more grateful, especially considering it was my first workaway experience. She introduced me to amazing… read more
