Profile information
Description
My name is Shannon Cardella. I created an account on workaway because I love to explore the world around me. I made that decision because I have a strong passion to learn more about myself, develop my self, and work in a community. In addition, I want to travel because I want to learn about different cultures and lifestyles. These reasons speak volumes as to who I am as a person. I am a person who loves adventure, freedom, exploration, and I love challenging myself. Therefore, I am truly excited and grateful to meet those whom I connect with over this webiste.
In the past I have worked on 6 farms. I have done various projects over the course of my time at each farm. Many of the work included farm work: weeding, trimming, planting crops, harvesting crops, housework, and cooking. I have many qualities as a worker that makes me a great candidate. I am organized, committed, personable, and I have strong communication and leadership abilities. If you have any further questions about my qualitifactions do not hesitate to ask and I will send a resume, cover letter, and any other information you require for your applicants.
Cheers,
Shannon Cardella

More details about your skills
1. I have one year of experience gardening at other people’s farms. In addition, I have been growing my own herb garden for 1 year.
2. I have been cooking for myself for 2 years. I live a completely plant-based (vegan diet) and I almost never purchase any prepared meals. I cook almost every thing from scratch. In addition, I have more cooking experience from some of the jobs I have worked at.
3. I am really physically fit. I have helped people on other farms and people in my close circle with manual labor jobs and I enjoy it. I have little carpentry experience, therefore I would have to learn some skills to build things.
4. I am an awesome cleaner. Keeping a place tidy, orderly, organized and clean is a speciality of mine.

What else ...
I have previous work exchange experience. I have worked on 6
different farms throughout California. I believe this experience has made me very comfortable being in new locations and meeting new people. From the reviews I have recieved, I believe this shows who I am as a worker and who I am as a person from a hosts’s perspective. Below I have the quotes from past hosts:
"Shannon was very helpful, friendly and easygoing. I'd definitely recommend her to other host farms."
"Shannon was a delight to host. Up for anything, easygoing, and conscientious, we welcome her back anytime and recommend her to any potential WWOOF host. Shannon is a good listener and participant in dinner table conversations, and works well with others. Thank you for all your help, and hope to see you again soon, Shannon!"
"Shannon is such a peaceful spirit; very easy going, responsible, independent, and an overall ease and joy to host. And don't be surprised...this soft spoken woofer can handle living in a loud woof pack just fine! As a strict vegan Shannon was challenged at our farm, but she took every challenge without hesitation and stride. Her dog is a riot...looked just like my dog, but 1/8th the size! And he was perfectly safe with all my chickens; a good farmdog in the making! Good luck in your life journey Shannon!"
"Shannon was a great wwoofer! Hard working, easy to get on with and fun to have around. Love to have her back any time!"
