Description

Working and socialising with people from different backgrounds motivates me as I love meeting and building relationships with people through experiences and work. From this I love being active and always having something to keep me busy- especially being outside in nature or in fun vibrant environments.

More details about your skills

Firstly, I have over 7 years experiences working in bars, cafes and restaurants. From these work places I have been fully barista, waiter and bartender trained being able to make and serve a range of cocktails, coffee types and any other soft, hot and alcoholic drinks. As well as this I have learnt how to deal with intense situations during busy periods and working in customer service where I have dealt with and interreacted with a wide range of different people. Despite this my greatest interest is also animals and nature. Upon my studies of animal management and animal behaviour I have gained lots of experience working with a range of different species and in many different environments including farms, zoo collections and wild environments such as the jungle, forests, national parks and beaches working on monitoring animals and conserving areas. Due to this I have gained many estate skills where I've used a range of tools and materials to build and put things together. From these experiences I have also been able to lead teams and train people up to learn these skills as well.

Diarmaid was an absolute lifesaver. He helped get us through one of the most challenging periods of our low season, when we were without a manager. He went above and beyond to support the team and keep things running smoothly during a difficult time. We are incredibly grateful for everything he did and would highly recommend him to any host.

My time at Colitas con Cans was amazing! Emily was great to chat and joke with amongst work and Charito was a pleasure to spend time with and have great chats with- alongside her amazing cooking. All the dogs were greatly unique in their own ways and the work was always very fulfilling. I loved learning more about dog behaviour while being … read more

I spent the last 9 days at the Hacienda and had an amazing time! Luis and all the dogs were so welcoming! I enjoyed spending my spare time with the dogs and other volunteers exploring the beautiful surrounding areas.

During my stay, I had a great time doing various shifts around the farm, enjoying the natural surroundings and spending time with the other volunteers. Bruno was a great host and it was a pleasure to spend time at his beautiful home although it went by so quick! I wish you all the best for the future and hope to see you again soon!

Diarmaid came with his friend Ava and he was also great to have around. He’s a biologist and has a real love for animals, which connected very well with life on the farm.

He helped us with many different tasks, always with a good attitude and willingness to contribute. Easygoing, friendly, and a nice presence in the group.

We hope he comes back … read more

I had an amazing time staying with Cristiano at Orca. It was great to be able to spend some time in such a peaceful and beautiful part of Brazil. I really enjoyed helping work around the home and garden and also walking with the dogs. Cristiano is a great host, thank you so much for having me and all your advice on Brazil! Hope to see you again.
