Description
I'm Scott from Colorado, USA. I love to teach and practice English with people, and I love kids and all animals. I also have a business background and am always willing to help with that, or in any way that I can. Learning about new cultures is also one of my favorite things!

Hablo español intermedio y quiero mejorar. Estoy en Guatemala ahora y quiero a visitar Colombia, Chile y mas en este viaje.

I went to Taiwan for one year and taught English, and have done 12 Workaway jobs in 7 different countries. I ended up staying in Romania after one of these, and nearly started a non-profit English "school" there.

I've done workaway jobs helping to build things, but am not highly skilled in any one area. I've enjoyed teaching English and am quite good at this, if you need to improve :D

Amazing to get to see this guy in two different times of his life. I truly appreciated your company chats and sharing some random life experiences. Hope to see you again and thanks for being part of this beautiful life and place. You are always welcome to escape from the society in these humble house and heart.

Kique and his place near El Remate are both very special. We danced and sang (I don't normally do either of these things very comfortably), cooked on the fire, and I really enjoyed relaxing in nature in the bosque / forest. The tasks vary a lot from one day to the next, but Kique would never ask too much from any volunteers. He has a lot of… read more

Anne is a wonderful host and a great human. Her organization is making a real difference a real impact in El Remate, with both the children there and with the medical clinic. El Remate is a special place right on Lake Peten Itza. It's a chill place with some awesome people. Playing with the kids and helping them in different ways was fun and… read more

Giorgio is truly a kind soul and great Workaway host. The posada and property are very chill, and I really enjoyed being in the nature of the jungle. The expectations from Giorgio were very reasonable, and there were a lot of different things to do on any given day. It is a peaceful place with great people. Thank you!

Meeting the Romanian people was the best part of this one week experience. They were wonderful, kind, fun people.

For me this was really a special week in my life. Spending the time with successful and accomplished local people, awesome other helpers, and the staff was fun and unique.

The accomadation was super nice and for a guy used to hostels… read more

Hazel and Scott were a real pleasure.

The chateau was a fun and interesting place with nice people. We worked hard at times but the good kind if hard work, never were asked for too much and it was cool to see the place change. I'd love to see it in the future after more work!

This area is nice and there are great cheap busses and trains to explore Languedoc which is… read more

Hazel and Scott are intelligent and well travelled folks. They were good fun, great to have around and very hard working. Their efforts transformed my neglected garden into a workable space. They also engaged in horse care, painting and some hard landscaping with great results. I don't hesitate to recommend them.

Janet was fun and flexible, with reasonable expectations. We worked hard and hope we made a difference after she'd been away for months. Her dogs were cool, food was very nice, and the scenery was great. You can hike around a bit or take a long walk to the beach, or just relax. Janet did what she could to make sure we were fed and happy and she… read more

People here made all the difference! Antonio was nice though we spent more time with Daniel who was SO helpful and hilarious too. We fell in love with the cooks Mira and Petya and the other helpers were great, from all over the world. The work during the summer camp was easy but a bit boring, and the place is fairly remote. You can take a few nice… read more
