Descripción
Well!
My name is Nik and I am currently travelling on a work and travel visa through Canada.
Since I am new to Canada and this website, I am open to anything - finding work, finding accommodation, finding friends and everything in between.
I look forward to learning new skills, helping you out with my existing abilities and mutually support each other on this traveller community website.
I have worked as a qualified teacher for over 15 years, I am a professionally-trained barkeeper and have gained extensive work experience as a tour guide and carpenter.
Here is a list of things I worked on during my Workaway stays so far:
- Painted Rooms (for an Airbnb room in the host's house)
- Taking out carpet
- Put new floor in
- Cleared out an attic
- Gardening work
- Taking out a nail in a tyre and fixed the puncture
- Fixed a vacuum cleaner
- House sitting
- Pet sitting
- Dog Walking
- Household Chores
- Deep cleaning the host's house
- Driving my host to various places
- Replaced a door knob
- Replaced shingles at a wodden shed
- Painted shed with primer and paint
- Picked acorns, chestnuts, berries, apples on a farm/orchard
- Picked and replanted 16.000 Red Oak Trees
- Chopping firewood
- Clearing out gardening space, weeding and cutting down trees
- Entertaining my hosts with endless puns and dad jokes
Shoot me a message, if you want to know more about me and if you think we could collaborate on a project.
Stay savoury - Nik.
