Descripción
Hi, Hola, Privet, Buongiorno, Namaskar!
My name is Nikolai, I live in the world as a digital nomad and handyman, and Estonia is my base country.
I would be glad to cut your firewood, tame your overgrown shrubs, build your sundeck, or paint your roof. Good mood and funny stories come as a bonus.
My story
Some time ago I was a freelance translator and interpreter and my life used to revolve around a computer desk or a conference room. Then I changed my priorities and now I enjoy travelling and WorkAwaying, doing a variety of work and a bit of translation on the way to earn my next ticket.
My skills
I see myself as a modern version of a medieval travelling craftsman who trots the globe looking for new skills and sharing what he has acquired. In addition to reasonable computer literacy, I also have some experience in construction (especially carpentry and electrical installation), hospitality, gardening and forestry.
So, I am good with power and hand tools, including chainsaws, all kinds of cutters and trimmers, I paint walls, install electrical systems, cook omelettes and fell trees.
Personally, I am easy-going, very clear with my goals and the ways to achieve them, pay attention to details and appreciate honesty and sincerity. I am able to work on my own (as long as you set the task and provide resources (tools / materials) or as an efficient and loyal team player. I like people, respect animals, and prefer learning to teaching. No drugs, smoking, alcohol, etc.
Usually, I offer to stay and work for one month with a host, though the co-operation can be extended if it works for both of us. I also offer a trial first week as a way to see whether it works and if not, both the host and I can say "thank you, goodbye" without any bad feelings or ruining plans. Zoom or WhatsApp meeting can be a good introduction.
Practical information:
- citizen of Estonia (EU), so I do not need visa to visit many countries or work in EU.
- have a travel insurance.
- omnivorous, no allergies.
- “early to bed – early to rise”.
- fully COVID vaccinated.
- And yes, I need a shower at least once a day.

(Help out in a Krishna Temple ...)
The Temple is a comforting and multifaceted place. The Temple as a Workaway host includes a very attractive building, ornate, beautiful and ceremonial, and very nice people, generous and friendly. And Divine presence, open to seekers. It can reveal the face that you want and need — it can be a safe home base for your expeditions to Penang and… read more

Nikolay came from far away and at a difficult time in our situation here. He loves to get up early morning and seems to be never running out of steam. We maybe did not have enough jobs to keep him fully occupied. When other helpers ask for a 5 hour day and the first question sometimes is how the free days are organised, Nikolai is just the… read more

Volunteering here is about smooth emerald green seas and furious squalls, postcard “tropic island” views from your cabin and hot wooden deck under your bare feet, illuminating dinner-time conversations and smell of oil from the machine room, soft good-night songs murmured by shrouds and acrobatic jumps in a dinghy. It is all about existing on a… read more

Nikolai is hardworking, and always looking for tasks needed to be done and do them! No task is too small or too big or too difficult. In our camp Nikolai was into technical maintenance, construction, cleaning, reception and all other duties belonging to the camp.
He is very easy to cooperate with in a team, and very kind to guests. He is very good… read more

Isefjaer is a workawayer’s paradise. Literally. I came here to stay for six weeks and ended up working for four months. And I was happy every minute of these months.
The surroundings are stunning – Norwegian mountains, covered with pine-trees and blackberry, waterfalls, rocks and a nice warm fjord, inviting for swimming or kayaking. And mysterious… read more

Nicoli's voluntary stay here has left a deep impression on everyone. Volunteers like him are few and far between! His contribution was invaluable and outstanding in numerous ways including his hard work and skills to manage and coordinate a team of volunteers. These skills combined with his enthusiasm and ability to motivate his peers would be… read more

I gratefully stayed one month with Ananda Gaori and enjoyed every hour of this month. It is a nice quiet place full of divine love, respect and peaceful labour. The place where people accept you as you are and give you an opportunity to understand your own self, your needs and your place in the world. We practiced yoga and kiirtan, we studied… read more

I stayed with Tanya and her family about 10 days, enjoying the company, the food and Prague. Tanya makes you feel home at first sight, she radiates care and friendliness, offers support and inspiration. The job is rewarding, as the result is immediate and visible. I liked every day of my stay there and wish I stayed longer.

Nikolai came with a smile on his face and was keen to get to work straight away. He had an excellent approach to the mini-vation project and gave creative practical suggestions that helped speed things up. He was affable, helpful and enthusiastic. He loved a joke, playing with the English language and to find a way to make things easier in many… read more

Nikolai was our first workawayer & will be a hard act to follow! He was with us for four weeks during which time he worked extremely hard, we are truly grateful for all he did. Thanks to Nikolai's help we were able to clear a phenomenal amount of trees, bushes & brambles from around our lakes. We also have enough firewood for several years!… read more

Peter and Sheila are the English family at large – morning porridge, mild humour, clear goals and consistent work to achieve it. We lived and worked together almost a month and it was a really good month for me. The work was hard and rewarding: you see the result immediately, you build up on the previous achievements and you see the overall… read more

Jos and Olga are amazing couple and perfect hosts. They are clever, caring and experienced, they work hard and comfortably relax in the house they built with their own hands. They know life and people and would tell you a lot about it – if you are willing to listen. I stayed and worked with them two weeks, it is a pity that the season came to end.… read more

Nikolai is the hardest working and most reliable worker I have ever meet. He liked to rise with the sun and work 8-10 hours a day. In the month he spent with me he did a phenomenal amount of work. I only wish he had spent longer. He is a big strong man and capable of handling most jobs I gave him and took instruction on what he didn't know easily.… read more

Percy’s place is a paradise for romantic couples and philosophy-minded individuals. There are mountains, oceans, forest, silence, and sky full of stars. Deer come to your front door at midday and whales breath by in the morning mist. You wash in the creek water and heat your cabin with wood stove. From your king-size bed you have a panoramic view… read more

I stayed with Nodoka-san and his family for 10 days in April 2016. Those were the days of hard work, interesting talks and a lot of laughter. I really hope that the Kato family received at least the half of the pleasure I did. Thank you!
