Description
HI! My name is Morgan! I am from Minneapolis, MN. I am sick of being cold so I am traveling instead! I like nature, farming, animals, the sea, working with my hands, and most things in between. I am a visual artist, avid cyclist, food lover, and forever a student. I have worked in education for several years, mostly with "special education" students, and most recently have been working as a freelance carpenter. I have a background in urban studies and social geography and spent many years working for non-profits.
I have volunteered through Workaway in Spain, Italy, Ecuador and in the US. I have also volunteered through WWOOF in Holland and Colombia.

The area is gorgeous and the food is delicious but the work outside of the house is a bit difficult and often goes without gratitude. The description is inaccurate when it comes to lodging and work hours. The accommodation is a shared dorm like space..bathrooms outside - comfortable but definitely bring a bug net and lots of bug spray. Amita… read more

We are very thankful with Morgan. She was a great person, hard-working and very friendly. We enjoy spending time with her. And of course we were really happy with the work she has done during her stay at our farm.

Monica and her family are kind, funny, hard-working people. Working with them was a great experience although somewhat short. They have a beautiful farm that they obviously put much care into over many years. Thanks again for the comfortable bed and delicious food! Salud!

Fabiola! Working here was difficult but a pleasure! I hope you and the animals are safe and dry!

Fabiola is extremely passionate about what she does and provides a much needed resource in Mompiche. The riding tides on the coast make work and living a bit difficult but worth it.

Thank you so much for your kindness, work ethic, and sense of humor as we all helped the Detroit community. You're a real gem of a person to get to know and we had a blast working with you. Thanks for being an awesome person. We'd have you back anytime!

Project Detroit!!! Miss all of you already!

I had a wonderful time. It was spent doing much needed hard work for good people, with good people. It was motivating to be around people that genuinely care about helping others, and to help finish a basement! I hope to return to Detroit or help at another project somewhere around the world. Thanks… read more

Tom! Sorry it took me so long to write a review!

I had a wonderful time staying with Tom and Co! Tom was a gracious host, has a beautiful property, adorable pets, and lots of fun projects to work on. I mostly helped with the snail shaped sauna, tending to the chickens, cooking, and keeping the dogs company. I had plenty of time to explore the… read more

Morgan is super easygoing, cool, hard working, fun, positive and an up-for-anything kinda girl. It was so nice to hang out and share some unforgettable times together. Her chilled presence was a valuable contribution to the group vibe, and her openness inspired everyone. She learnt how to plaster 'rustic style' very quickly and she was great at… read more
