Activities i am interested in:

Currently in Belgrade thru August, making travel plans.

Description

I am inspired to use the WorkAway platform so that I may have the opportunity to do some new and interesting adventures in parts of the world that I haven't been to yet. I have worked in permaculture and communal settings over the years before going to music school. I've since finished and miss the working lifestyle that work exchange provides. I love to connect with people and tap into positive experiences for all to share. Traveling is a privilege, and I am especially grateful that I have the time to do so in my life. I am traveling very frugally, and do not need much materially to be content. I am hardworking, adaptable, and enjoy being useful in practical matters. I hope to meet you soon!

More details about my language interests
I have studied Spanish and German a bit, and have recently become interested in the Balkan languages and Turkish. As an American person, I've only spoken English but I'd love to learn more language skills. I'd like to practice more and also open to helping teaching English.

What else ...

I am curious about the world and always consider it a great honor to be a guest in a new place. My hobby interests are varied:I have studied nature skills (foraging plants, wildcraft projects, animal skin processing), puppetry (Bread and Puppet apprenticeship), and have worked as a professional jazz musician for 10+ years (BA and MA degrees in music). Also enjoy chess and basketball (though I'm not the best at either).
