Travel information

I am currently

Description

I’m an electrical/field engineer from Hungary currently on a gap year, free of corporate work responsibilites. I have done a fair share of travelling already, but mainly related to work.

Now I'm travelling more soulfully, where I have more time to enjoy the local atmosphere, connect to nature, people, and most of all, relax my nervous system. In the last few years I discovered spirituality and yoga, and the goal of this year is also to uncover my potentials in this field, as well as trying more healthy / conscious lifestyles.

I started my journey in Panama in February, enjoying workaways and also some independent travelling. I'm slowly learning Spanish on my own - this is abigger undertaking that I thought but I'm not giving up!

I realized that I enjoy workaways the most if I can contribute with my skills and feel that I'm makng a difference. I prefer working with people (as in reception work at hostels), or being able to build or fix something, or create art. Repetitive and mindless work like raking leaves or grass all day is not something I tolerate well for too long.

My other project on this trip is that in Costa Rica I purchased a motorbike, and I hope it's gonna remain my faithful companion for the rest of my journey. My goal is to slowly make it to the Mexican border, or maybe beyond!

I’m calm, reflective, and independent. I enjoy having a daily rhythm (helping a few hours, then time to explore, hike, read, or reflect). I’m very comfortable being on my own, but I also enjoy shared meals and honest deep conversations.

I’m not really looking for party environments — I’m more interested in simple living, sports, nature, and cultural exchange.

More details about your skills

My professional background is technical (engineering, troubleshooting, practical problem-solving), but I enjoy hands-on work and DIY just as much.

I definitely can help with:
- General maintenance and repairs, around the house, machines, cars, etc
- Construction, electrical work, plumbing, bit of carpentry, organizing, fixing things.
- Gardening, farming tasks, caring for animals. I like to get my hands dirty!
- Helping in hostels or eco-lodges
- IT / tech help if needed

Since I have always worked in the tech field so far, if possible, I'd also like to try to do something more people-centered, or something related to hospitality, like being at the reception, guiding, hosting, assisting tours, etc.
