Description
Hi, I'm George, I'm 25 from the UK and have a passion for travel, learning about different cultures, and getting involved in meaningful projects. Over the past few years, I've been fortunate enough to live, work, study, and volunteer in over 15 countries. Through Workaway and other volunteering opportunities, I've worked in a refugee camp in northern France, taught sailing in the United States, supported a museum in Palestine, and volunteered with organisations working with vulnerable and marginalised communities. I'm someone who loves sports and the outdoors, enjoying football, running, cycling, sailing, swimming, and almost any water sport. I love being part of a team, whether that's helping with physical projects, working with guests, teaching, or simply pitching in wherever I'm needed. I'm reliable, easy-going, and always willing to learn.

More details about your skills
I’m hard working and enthusiastic in everything that I do, I’ve also had chickens and grown up in the countryside around horses and have worked as labourer on a building site meaning I am more than accustomed to the physical work and non stop nature required. Through months abroad doing different workdays such as hostels and community centres I've accrued greater diligence, flexibility according to circumstance and enhanced people skills allowing for a great atmosphere around the place.

The volunteer explained only a couple of hours prior to arrival that he could not arrive. This created problems as another persons stay was dependent on his stay. I need a minimum of 2 volunteers to start the volunteering here. Consider others before making a commitment.

I had a great time in Jericho with Ashraf, Basil, Tariq and Sameer who welcomed me into the family and made my first Workaway brilliant. From making Palestinian food to explaining and talking about Palestinian culture my stay was not only a great time but informative as well and really showed a depth of Jericho and Palestine which I wouldn’t have… read more

It was great having George among us, he fast became and member of the family. Very hard working, organized and respectful of local customs. Would definitely recommend to any host.
