Hi Everyone! I am a navy veteran (Corpsman) from Texas, USA.
I want to see more of this world, meet different people and try new things - what better way to do this then to work/help people in the process.
I would love to develop more customer service skills, learn more about sustainable living, improve my Spanish and get some more hands on experience here in South America.
So if my profile looks good to you, and you are anywhere in Ecuador; please send me a message, I would love to hear from you and come volunteer.Intereses

This is my first time in south america.
In the past I've worked for numerous hosts, some include:
Quito, I was the gardener for a large hostel covered in plants, I tilled, fertilized, re potted/planted, pruned, cleaned, and sprayed every single one.
In Costa Rica, I was reception opening/closing, check-ins/check-outs, general cleaning, changing beds, laundry, and making breakfast for the guests.
In El Salvador, I assisted a woman clearing and replanting plants on her property and building a fence. this project involved the use of a chainsaw.
I worked at a hostel in Roatan, Honduras. My duties there were: Reception, managing check ins and outs, keeping account of cash on hand, deep cleaning the rooms (as per pandemic needs) after check out or inspecting the rooms before check in, pool maintenance, and cleaning the common spaces and hostel grounds.
Coban, Guatemala I lived with and assisted a family with their small farming project and some garden maintenance. This one was more of a hard labor project.
Livingston, Guatemala I worked at a hostel, checking guests in and out, tending the bar and entertaining tourists.
Utila, Honduras I housesat an eco-house (solar power, rainwater collection and composting toilet) in the jungle for 3 weeks by myself, taking care of her 2 dogs, 2 cats and the garden while she was back in the states. This workaway host personally recommended me for the hostel in Roatan, Honduras a few years later.
At home in Texas, I have hands on experience with goats and horses owned by family members. I also have volunteered with Habitat for Humanity many times, incase you want me to build you a house lol!
In the Navy I was a corpsman which is similar to a medical assistant, so I have knowledge of first aide and was a Basic Life Support Instructor.Edad

The hostel is very comfortable, clean and tidy. it's also in a great part of the city, close enough to the night life, while itself being low key and relaxing feeling like a home. it… read more

Andy ,the manager, is chill and dedicated to make sure people feel welcome and have fun. Someone needs to challenge Andy to beer pong and take that damn chain around his neck for me.
They also have free beer here:asterisk_symbol:
