Descripción
Hello!
My name is Jacqueline. I graduated from the University of Iowa, where I received my B.A. in English and Creative Writing and Political Science and a minor in Philosophy. I love writing, camping, astronomy (still excited about the James Webb Space Telescope!), and making and editing videos.
I love dogs and animals! Back home in Michigan, I have two Brittanys, Piper and Kaila. I also love cooking and baking; my most recent treats have been scones, homemade pasta, potato gnocchi, almond drop cookies, and lemon meringue pie. My favorite sport is soccer! I've been a soccer referee for ten years and have reffed everything from u8 games to nationals to college. I've done some work on farms, wineries, co-ops, and more. I'm great with animals, have experience with gardening, children, and tutoring, and know how to do basic DIY (sanding, painting, staining, filling holes, etc.).
I have a remote job coaching college application essays.
Fully Vaccinated and Boosted.
Book recommendations:
Halls of Fame by John D'Agata

Le Petit Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
“The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or touched, they are felt with the heart.”
This Brilliant Darkness: A Book of Strangers by Jeff Sharlet
"Never before in my life has just being here—with the fox and the doe and the owl, with my pulse and my fears and the frozen air hot in my throat—felt like so much."

My skills include writing, social media, English, video editing, gardening, coaching, babysitting, and more. I have lots of experience caring for dogs and cats.
I've managed weekly newsletters, worked for a local magazine, and maintained online calendars for local events. I have skills in tutoring up to the University level in writing and political science and can help with most subjects in high school and below. My mom is a master gardener, so I'm always ready to do some weeding!
If I don't know how to do something, I'm always willing and eager to learn!

I had a good time with PD! I did some kitchen cleaning/organizing, gardening, cooking, etc. I got to see the solar eclipse while there as well which was amazing!! PD has a beautiful house with a garden and is well connected by bus to get downtown. I enjoyed meeting her nephew and hanging out and making dinners together!

I had a great time with Julie and Rocky. Badger is a friendly dog--I loved taking him on walks! The work was clearly communicated and not too much at all. It was so great to meet Julie and Rocky and get to meet some of their friends, as well. They are a short walk away from a great gelato shop and the Tannery, which has shops, cafes, and… read more

I stayed for about a week in Stavanger and did lots of hiking and visiting the city! Pau is a very welcoming person with lots of cool friends. The chickens were very cute and the view from my bedroom window was amazing! I would have loved to stay longer and do a proper workaway to help out with the projects he had planned, but I really enjoyed my… read more

I had a great stay with Kenneth and Ingvild. I loved helping out with the sheep, food, making smoothies, rentals, and anything else that popped up. On one of my last days, I got to go blueberry picking with Ingvild which was so much fun--and the berries were delicious! Norway is absolutely beautiful and you should take the time to go on some… read more

Jackie is amazing, in so many ways... Where to begin... She's great in all the help she gives... I've wished to have a workawayer like her since the beginning, since her organizing talent is beyond!!! And she's so skilled in making order in things, I've never experienced anything like it...

I had a luck to host Jackie for some weeks in may. It was awesome help from her, although diverse works with cleaning the apartments, she could be the best assistant for the renovation project of the house. Also so glad to had a thoughtful conversations on many topics. It is so good to had an oportunity to host so wonderful person like Jaqueline.

I had a great time in Croatia with Marko. I helped weed, clean the apartments to get them ready for summer, and helped renovate the house (sweeping, helping to put in flooring, sanding/painting). The visits to the cafe afterward were always appreciated! You get to live in an apartment by yourself (your own bed, bathroom, and kitchen) right by the… read more

This was a great escape from city life where I helped with building fences, cleaning up after and feeding the cows and horses, and of course cuddling some cows!

I mostly cleaned, help put together some materials for events, and helped cook. I even had the opportunity to go and watch Omid referee a soccer game! I had a… read more

Jacky fitted seamlessly into our household. She was flexible and prepared to turn her hand to anything needed. She was great with our animals I’m sure they all miss her.

I did a workaway here with my friend back in January/February. Awesome pie up in Julian! The accommodations weren't quite what we were expecting--there have been some changes lately, and we had to enter someone else's living area to get fresh water, cook, and use the bathroom. The work was fine--brush clearing (watch out for poison oak!),… read more

I had a great time in Washington at Peter's place! You're within walking distance of the subway, the college, and a nice brewery. The dogs, Memphis and Mason, are super sweet. I walked them 3-4 times a day (sometimes the younger one I would take on a run before walking both dogs since Memphis is full of energy!). I still miss them! You do have to… read more

Loved this workaway and definitely plan on returning! The outdoor dogs and cats are cute (say hi to Urchin, for me), picking grapes was satisfying, stomping grapes was a leg workout, and I now have a new and well-earned hatred for pigweed. The food is delicious, the people are amazing, and the opportunities are sprawling. You get out what you're… read more
