Descripción
I am a Swedish-American from Saint Paul, Minnesota. I have worked for the Wisconsin Legislature, the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, Jinan University in Guangdong, China, and "retired guy" jobs in auto parts and gardening. My educational credentials include a master's degree in public administration, another in library science, seventeen college credits in teaching English as a foreign language, and half the coursework toward a Certificate of Professional Editing offered by UC-Berkeley. My native language is English and I am conversational in German and was once travel-ready in Mandarin Chinese. I am a member of the Society of Hickory Golfers and play in tournaments sponsored by this organization. I spend a lot of time in my 50X50-foot garden, growing vegetables that are not available in local grocery stores. Cooking is my primary interest.

I can offer home cooking, English language speaking and writing instruction, and gardening. I also have some woodworking skills -- I make and repair historic golf clubs.

I have done several workaways and find that choosing the right host(ess) is the most important criterion for a successful experience. Anna is an excellent manager and enjoyable person. It was fun to meet her family; all diligent, interesting and talented people.
I enjoyed teaching adult classes and met with all classes and teachers. The school is… read more

Lai Chi Wo is a very interesting village. This workaway is quite structured and work in the garden can be strenuous so youth is a valued asset. Off-work the meals are very good and in the evening games are played and sometimes well-chosen movies are shown. The hosts are intelligent and knowledgeable people and the young man quite sharp. In the… read more

We appreciate his effort to try our farm workstay. He did put effort to do some work. The nature is not lenient with humid and hot weather that makes him exert himself just to stay outdoor, let alone putting extra effort to work carefully, memorizing our house rule, wasting less and taking good care of himself. We don't ask a lot from a senior… read more

I enjoyed this workaway very much and hope I worked hard enough! Dörte met me at the Hauptbahnhof and showed me about the stunning city of Naumburg. She has a strong aesthetic sense and skills. The Gastehaus was a comfortable place to stay and Carola was a delightful conversationalist and help. I worked mainly on the grounds and also did some… read more

I was in Angus Glens just three or four days and wished I had planned more time there. Claire is an enjoyable person to work with -- relaxed and also efficient. I spent a day working with her father moving sheep and he is fun to be with. The caravan has all the amenities of more-than-basic living: a wood stove, television, full bath, kitchen and… read more

I had an excellent workaway at Steinmeister Gastehaus in Naumburg. Dörte met me at the Hauptbahnhof and gave me a short tour of the stunning town of Naumburg. My work was mainly grass cutting and leaf raking and straightening up to get the property looking good for weekend guests. I also did some painting. I could have done more! I had anticipated… read more
