Descripción

Hi there,
I'm Rapha, a german dude that's been traveling for many years now. currently 34 years old. I studied biology, focusing on population genetics and conservation biology. That being said, I haven't worked in that field for the last 5 years, it's not really applicable for short to mid term work scenarios while traveling.
so i did up my carpentry, building and crafting skills and haven't had a hard time finding work with those around Australia, New Zealand and Europe.
I actually ended up volunteering in places several times before. I just never used the website, they mostly found me through word of mouth, other travelers or the fact that great minds think alike. now i thought this is worth a shot to go the direct way.
I'm always keen to learn new things, teach what's known to me and lending a hand. My dreads are over 13 years old now i think, they are a part of me and still oppose my character in many ways. not your usual rasta dude.

I definitely have to up my french skills! I've been traveling Nouvelle-Calédonie for a few weeks and learned so much there, but most got lost afterwards while not using it again. Don't know if I'm any good as a teacher, i speak languages more by feel than by grammatical rules...

Algo más...

I have to be busy most of the time, nothing kills brain cells quite as much as boredom. that said, I can easily occupy myself in any situation. My background in biology usually leads me to trying to identify things around me, learn about anything that lives.
I also craft a few things every now and then. In New Zealand I did a lot of jewelry, much with paua and native wood varieties.
I like woodworking, and since i met a blacksmith I am very keen on forging again. little experience, heaps motivation.
I owned a little sailboat in New Zealand, with the plan of sailing it into Vancouver. unfortunately Covid put an end to this dream (and probably saved my life hahah).
I used to play the ukulele a little bit, will give it a shot again in Canada!
