Description
Hello, I am new to Workaway and excited to be here! I am in my late 50s and retired now for almost 3 years. I am a nomad at heart, having lived in many states in the US, Mexico and visited many countries. I am looking for opportunities to connect with people and to be able to contribute through work and life experience. I love the outdoors so anything that incorporates that is a win!
I am very easy going and low maintenance :) I enjoy meeting new people and hearing their stories. I also enjoy alone time to read.
I love to learn and like to challenge myself. I have been a volunteer my whole life even during my full-time employment years. Volunteering is important to me and gives me purpose.Interests

LanguagesTeachingMore details about your skills
From a practical standpoint I am a problem solver, hard worker and fast learner. My education and professional experiences consist of having been a physical therapist, manager/administrator, sales and an instructional designer for online learning. In a volunteer capacity, I have worked with horses in therapeutic horse back riding, taught adaptive skiing, hiker safety patrol at North Coyote Buttes, and worked with rehabilitating dogs. As a previous homeowner I loved house projects, I have painted both inside and out, stripped, sanded, stained and varnished wood, fixed minor plumbing problems, laid a hardwood floor, hung dry wall, grown a garden and many landscaping projects. I am not afraid to jump in and help with anything I can.
