Description

Hello there,

My name is Rupert, I am thirty one years old and from England. Since January 2025 I have decided to take two years out to travel, volenteer and work abroard. I plan to visit different places to broarden my mind, engange in different ways of life and to learn new skills.

I wish to build off these experience's and to continue making connections with workaway hosts while making sure I fit in with a timeframe that meets expectations that work for anyone who takes me on.

What motivates me and brings me happyness is helping others through different projects either paid or voluntary and as mentioned gaining life skills that I can transition to my own life back home.

I am also an active Yogi and meditator and try my best to remain humble and live a holistic way of life. For that reason I like making connections with light minded people who are looking for an alternative way of living.

If you would consider me as one of your workaway's I will give you my best!

Rupert

More details about your skills

I have spent the last three years as a postman in the UK which has helped me keep up a good level of physical fitness alongside my ongoing yoga and bodyweight training. This job has also helped develop my navigation skills and diving ability as well.

Alongside this I have been teaching yoga for the last two years after having completed my 200hr teacher training and further specialising in Forest yoga 200hr in Bali as of october last year. I am passionate about teacher yoga, especially encouraging more men to get involved into such a balanced practice for mind and body.

As of recently I have spent April living with the Shinenawa in Acre, Brazil which resides in the heart of the amazon rainforest. from day to day living we owuld help with collecting wild fruit and veg, gutting fish carrying over long distances goverment supplied carbohydrates and cooking oils. We also aided in building a new shower system and make improvements on soem of their home structures.

On a personal level we not only bonded with the local people but also took part in two iowaska ceromonies which have been challenging but no less life changing. I am still in the process of recovering from this in a positive way.

What else ...

Aside from practicing and teaching yoga with daily miditation I enjoy spnding time in nature, going on regular hikes and wild camping. I aslo enjoy getting into the sea and wild swimming as well.

I am an avid reader and love to escape into a good novel.

I enjoy my own company but it is important for me to do group activities which can be allot fun and very rewarding. Doing this enables me to make new friends and to build a new skill set as well.

Alongside this I am not much of a party animal but I do enjoy social events and as mentioned meeting new people, especially abroard.
