Travelling
Description
Hi! Thank you for checking out my page! I am Tyler, 28 years-old and from the United States. Traveling through Asia has been my dream as long as I can remember, and I finally quit my desk job in April to make it happen. I have been backpacking Europe, from April until August, and now am finally heading to Asia.
I have a wide array of job experience and skill sets ranging from leading project teams, construction work, landscaping and gardening, managing a small non-profit, front desk work, etc. My favorite part about traveling, is getting my hands dirty and immersing myself in new cultures and environments. I have done a number of Workaways on my previous long term backpacking trip, and another one this time in Euope, each one has been an amazing experience and left me a better person. I consider myself personable, respectful, hardworking, eager to learn, sometimes funny and I love to be part of something bigger than myself. Thanks again for checking out my profile, and please feel free to contact me with any questions or opportunities. Can't wait to meet you soon!

I had an amazing experience during my 2 weeks with Ms. Gati and her family. The living situation was one of the better ones that I had doing Workaways. Ms. Gati and her family went out of their way to plan and include me in activities and trips to share their culture with me.

The experience with Grant and Alec was just amazing. They became like brothers and family for us. It could not have been a better encounter for us. They were super friendly and respectful at any moment. They supported us and the farm with dedication, care and curiosity.

We had the best 2 weeks staying at this community with Ramon, Vera, Sarah, and Marlon. I really appreciated how well they communicated with us beforehand, while we were there, and the trust we built together. Everything was exactly as described, and we didn't have any surprises along the way.

Staying and working with Phillipe was a great experience. The work is fairly easy and you really get an opportunity to learn from Phillipe. The house is located in a beautiful area and Phillipe was very accommodating about taking us to the train and such when we asked. I would recommend this site to anyone
