Description

Hi! My name is Elsie and I am so excited to join the Workaway community! I grew up the mountains so playing in dirt and being close to nature and community is woven into my personality. In my free time I like to hang out with friends and family, make art, hike, garden, snowboard, and play music. I love to travel and meet new people. As a young person, I can't imagine a better way to meet interesting people and engage with different cultures. I have experience in service, gardening, and babysitting.

Mike and Billy were wonderful hosts. Mike is very kind, helpful, welcoming, accommodating, and communicative. I also felt really safe here and loved having other travelers to work beside!

Left by host (Shape my permaculture and ...) for Workawayer ()

Elsie's stay of a bit over a fortnight was great for me. She's got lots of energy - both socially and physically - and devotes it to whatever she's doing. For someone that isn't very large she is impressively strong and has lots of endurance. She applied that to planting, moving mulch, building compost heaps and other bits and pieces. I … read more

I stayed and worked here for a month. It was an amazing experience! Because they accept many workawayers at once, there is many opportunities to meet people and build lifelong friendships. The work is very reasonable and the owner is very kind. I would definitely recommend this work opportunity.
