Description
Hey! I'm Dean from Sydney, Australia. At the end of 2018 I quit my my job, left home and have been venturing to different parts of the world since then, continually searching for something new to get my hands on.

I have taken part in a vast variety of things over the past 3 and a half years adding more strings to my bow: from hostel/guesthouses, farm life, permaculture, construction, dog training, bar tending/hospitality, trekking guide. I am a very hands on person and always willing to get involved in anything I can to help. I am an electrician by trade and I also have my TEFL accreditation so more than willing to teach English where need be.

I enjoy the outdoors, sports, hiking/climbing, music, and a healthy living but more looking forward to immersing myself in new cultures and life experiences!

Always up for a laugh and a laid back guy so feel free to get in touch!

Dean was with us three weeks. He is an incredibly fast learner and hard worker. He is also a team player that is easy to get along with. His positive attitude and kindness were always appreciated. I would eagerly recommend him for any job.

My time spent in this sanctuary was nothing short of amazing and I already miss hanging out with the animals all day long, yes even Herbert! You are instantly made to feel part of their loving family the moment you are picked up from the station. It really is a committed sanctuary made first and foremost for the animals and its a fulfilling… read more

Manuela, Wolfgang and team create a very amusing, easy going environment which makes this stay that more enjoyable! They're extremely generous hosts and their hospitable nature make you feel welcomed the moment you arrive.

Left by Workawayer (Dean) for host (Come and learn about breeding ...)

The knowledge and experience you will take away from Hans and Birgid's place is second to none! They will teach you a lot about working dogs, breeding and the daily life of German Shepherds. I got to experience the Winter season in the Steinwald region which is a stunning place to be in. The mornings involved cleaning, feeding and walking the dogs… read more

Left by Workawayer (Dean) for host (Breathtaking nature, peace ...)

Ankes place is entertaining to say the least! There was always something happening and I was involved in different tasks everyday. There is a lot of work in renovating the old house if you are willing to get stuck into it. All the animals are so loving and will keep you occupied throughout the days. The surrounding nature is amazing and you can… read more

Perfect match, Dean was with us "only" 10 days. "Only" because they were packed with activities and felt like 10 weeks. Dean drove with me in the middle of the night many 100 km to pick up a blind animal protection dog. Because Corona is up to date we had to take a second dog with us more or less unplanned. Pure stress for all involved. But Dean… read more
