Description
Hello I'm Eva.

I love to work outside, doing physical labour, and I work well in a team or alone. I love to work with kids and animals; I worked on a horse farm before, (I ride horses) so I know that there is always work to be done. Some of my job experience includes: being a travel consultant, English teacher, journalist and editor, cleaner, café worker, store worker, farm hand, ski and skate instructor, hostess, construction worker, filmset assistant, photographer, Illustrator, tree planter, pet/farm sitter and babysitter.

I'm doing a little bit of University work online for my art degree in my free time. I focus on photography, which may be a helpful skill to have at your workaway residence. I really like learning, especially different cultural lenses and languages. I speak Spanish, English, Portuguese, German and a little French.

Some of my hobbies are: photography, painting, jogging, riding, yoga, hiking, dancing, and cooking. I like to spend time with people, but in order to recharge, I prefer to be alone.

I am from Canada. I’ll be in Mexico city till Nov 24. I’ll be in Medellin from Nov 24 till middle February 2024.

Eva was an awesome person to have around here. She had a great attitude and was willing to do all the the work we asked of her. She did a great job on everything and helped make our community feel like one. However Eva did not stay for the time she originally committed to and only gave us a days notice before leaving. As far as what was… read more

I loved staying with Marie so much! She has a beautiful energy to her. I loved hearing her inspiring stories, and her adventurous travel tales as well. She is very communicative and easy to be around. I was lucky to go to one of her yoga classes in the park, which was amazing.
The chores that I had to do were mostly cleaning around the house,… read more

It was such a blast having Eva living with me for the past week. She is a super sweet, independent woman and was a huge help with household chores and some social media stuff. Eva did not need a lot of assistance and saw what needs to be done without me telling her about it. My private space was 100% respected and she has some amazing, interesting… read more

Lisa was such an amazing host. Doing a Workaway in her garden was a dream! She really cares about everyone around her. Her garden is beautiful, with a diverse variety of fruit, vegetables and flowers. She makes detailed murals, that make up a part of her garden walkway and pool. There were lots of fun and different gardening and landscaping jobs… read more

Eva, a lovely artist, intelligent and kind.
It was such a nice experience to host Eva. She is strong and capable and very positive, hard working. We did some rather large garden projects, clearing, weeding, mulching, she transformed spaces into clean and well maintained gardens.
She sorted out and cleaned the tool shed, helped with organising and… read more

Eva was undoubtedly one of the most outstanding volunteers here at the hostel, she became a great friend! always helpful and super proactive! She is not a party girl, she is immersed in her studies and assignments, but she loves to dance, so you can expect her to liven up the places that have parties! I strongly recommend that you receive her with… read more

I stayed with Ricardo for almost 3 months! My longest work away yet; because I felt so comfortable and at home there. Ricardo is very communicative and a friendly host. While I was there, I painted walls, cleaned, put up dry wall, sanded, plastered walls and helped care for the wonderful 2 dogs and cats. I would 100 % recommend him as a host to… read more

I stayed at this eco hostel for about 2 weeks and loved it! The place is beautiful and well-kept. Everyone there is very friendly and welcoming. The work was well organized, I did mostly cleaning and maintenance jobs. The hostel is located in the forest, not far from the beach and has lots of amazing people, fruits, waterfalls and trails to… read more

Stephanie and Tiphaine were the best hosts I could imagine having, and this was my first work away experience. They were very communicative with me, yet also helped me a lot with my French (which is a very beginner level). I stayed with them on their beautiful farm for three weeks and completed a different variety of tasks every day: weeding,… read more

Eva picked the best time to be here at my farm (warmest November ever). And I was lucky enough to have Eva as a workawayer for two weeks. Eva is an awfully nice person, mature for her age with a great sense of humor. She has a calm and courteous presence, is very skillful and is a quick learner. Eva is very open minded and happy to learn and try… read more

I loved staying with Fanny for two weeks at her -safe haven for animals- farm. I was really impressed and inspired by how well she treats her animals. She is a very hardworking, caring person, who loves to spend her time outside.

I completed a lot of different tasks including cleaning up manure, storing hay, feeding the horses, weeding, cleaning… read more
