Switzerland - from May 2025 until Aug 2025 View allDescription
Hi, I'm Tom, I'm 22 and from Bristol, England. I love hiking and travelling. I spent 3 months wwoofing in the Italian Dolomites in summer 2022 and 5 months workawaying in the Canadian Rockies across British Colombia and the Yukon in 2023.
After a trip to South-East Asia from January to April in 2025 I plan to buy a euro rail ticket for Europe for 3 months in May 2025. I hope to spend most of this trip in Switzerland and Austria, helping out on some incredible farms, meeting great people and spending as much time as I can hiking.
Since I discovered workaway and wwofing in 2022, it has changed my life and taught me so many new skills and appreciation for life and nature.
Over the last 2 years I've expanded my knowledge in looking after all sorts of animals; chickens, cows, sheep, donkeys and goats, and also improved my gardening knowledge in prepping, planting, pruning, weeding and harvesting. I may not be a professional by any standard but I am a quick learner who is fit, healthy and happy to work independently.
I have been working in retail, doing nightshifts stacking shelves and cant wait for a new adventure next year. Thank you for reading!Interests

More details about your skills
Across all the farms I've worked on in the last 2 years I did many tasks such as feeding and looking after animals, gardening and cleaning, weeding and picking, painting fences, stripping logs and generally helping and picking up new skills and knowledge in any way I can.
In my free time I loved to hike in the local area and spend time getting to know the kind families I stayed with.
My experiences in retail have given me strong skills in communication and team working.
As my Mum used to be a childminder I am also good with young children. I'm a hard worker and a quick learner who has no issue with physically demanding tasks or having to be independent.Age
