Description
Hello! My name is Wes and I'm 28 years old. I'm from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. I love to be active and outdoors. I enjoy biking, hiking, soccer, and yoga. When I'm not exercising, I like to read, play chess, and listen to music. I've been studying Spanish for 2 years. I've always wanted to travel long term and now I'm taking this time in my life to live out that dream. I hope to find a welcoming community/family where we can share meals, skills, hobbies, and stories together.

More details about your skills
I was a cook in restaurants for 6 years while studying in high school and college. I'm able to efficiently prep and cook meals, and I also have some experience canning and preserving food. I love being around animals and have experience taking care of cats, dogs, cows, pigs, and chickens. I've helped to till, plant, weed, and harvest gardens with my mother and grandmother most of my life. I've kept a garden of my own at times, but unfortunately my current house doesn't have space for a garden. I have some amateur experience with power tools, building dry stone walls, and using a cement mixer. I am eager and willing to learn more skills.

The school is located right in downtown Casablanca with tons of shops, cafes, and restaurants immediately accessible. It's a 15-30 minute walk to Arab league park, Hassan II mosque, and the medina.

The accommodations are very simple but sufficient. The bedroom consisted of two bunk beds and a seating area. There was a toaster oven, two burner… read more

Staying with Renata and working with Giaime at this project was one of the best experiences I've had through workaway. The house is a beautiful old building originally built to house the workers of the villa that is nearby. It was a very comfortable place to stay. The food was always delicious and plentiful. Renata and her whole family were all… read more

I stayed with Jo and Jake for about 1 month during December 2024 to January 2025. I had a great time at this project and its definitely a place that I would return to the next time I'm in Spain. The accommodations were satisfactory and there was always plenty of food to eat. Usually Jo would prepare lunch to share and the workawayers prepared… read more

My friend and I were supposed to volunteer at this project in mid-February 2025. Unfortunately, Mohamed cancelled on us on the day we were supposed to arrive at the school. We were already on the bus to his place and had to scramble to find another place to sleep for the night and also find another work exchange opportunity. When I asked what went… read more

What to say first about Wesley (Wes). Hardworking. Oh heck yes. Able to work alone or with others.. yes again twice over. Good at listening to instruction. I didn't have to tell him twice that is for sure..
Polite. Absolutely.
Affable. Definitely.
A joy to host.. let's just say we asked him to stay but he'd already given his word to another… read more

I stayed with Josie, Barry, and Chris for just over a month. Their house is very nice and well kept. While I was staying with them, I had a very comfortable room/bed to myself. I often enjoyed spending my evenings hanging out on their screened in porch or on their rooftop terrace that had incredible views of the surrounding mountains. Josie is a… read more

It was a dynamic and exciting place. Something was always happening and people coming and going. I likely had a unique experience while staying there because the owners (Adria and Sandra) left for a week to visit friends and family. This left me alone at the house for a few evenings, but there were always other people there during the day. Also, I… read more
