Descripción

Hello! Thank you for visiting my profile!

I left the USA and started doing workaway and traveling solo in July 2025, loving the journey between hostels, workaway hosts, and friends' houses. Since September 2025, I have enjoyed living in Western Ireland, but I have decided to head to NZ in May on a working holiday visa. In Ireland, I worked on a dairy farm, in cafes, and in a bakery.

I'm 25 years old, a lifelong gardener, adventurer, animal whisperer, hiker, and nature lover. I enjoy getting my hands dirty and exchanging skills, meeting new people, and learning about different cultures; I'm quite good with electronics, tools, and general handyman work. I have references available for house sitting, gardening/landscaping projects, professional management, and pet sitting.
I was born in North Carolina, USA, but have spent part of my life in England and hold dual American & British citizenship.
I am educated in environmental studies/sustainable systems with deep knowledge in horticulture, permaculture, energy systems, and composting. I also tutor English online as a part time job with children ages 6-16 as well as some adult students!

Que habilidades tienes?

Experience with (power) tools, drilling, cutting, gardening, and building. I have built flower beds, raised gardens, planted fields, and sown seedlings.

Comfortable with livestock. In Ireland, I worked on a dairy farm milking cows, pasteurizing milk, and delivering milk to cafes and milk vending machines.

Licensed drone pilot. I have had my commercial drone license since 2021.

I am not only skilled outdoors- I am tech savvy, good at figuring out trouble with electronics; if someone is having phone or computer problems, I am the person my friends/family call. I also build computers.

Intermediate sailor, I sailed throughout my youth on lakes in small to medium-sized boats. Know how to tie knots, rules of the water, and basic sailing rigging.

I love to cook

(Jacob only) It was a pleasure to spend a week at Mike’s house working on his land and exploring the surrounding area. We shared great food, lots of laughs, lessons about native plants and animals, and stories about our travels. The work we did ranged from creating new plants with cuttings, planting trees, removing invasive species, laying new … read more

It's been a pleasure to host Jacob during the week just passed - I'd have gladly made it a longer stay had that worked with both of our schedules. He's a charming, good-mannered guy (much more polite than me!) and was a respectful, thoughtful guest. He fitted in very well with the other Workawayers that were staying alongside him. Jacob is … read more

Jacob was an outstanding volunteer. He was easygoing, respectful, and always willing to help wherever needed. Jacob worked hard, communicated effectively, and truly cared about completing tasks properly. We valued both his company and his dedication to work.

I had a wonderful time staying in Black Isle; Joanne and her family are lovely people who made me feel at home from the start. It was my first time in Scotland since I was very young, and I was given brilliant insider information about the local area and all the things to do. I only stayed for a week due to tight travel plans, but I would have … read more

Incredible experience! I spent two weeks with Seraina and Jeroen, along with other volunteers. They were great hosts, extremely generous and kind. They were very accommodating, and everything was accurate as listed on their profile. It felt like a home away from home. I learned and honed many skills, gaining insight into various aspects of … read more

Jacob has been highly motivated to be part of this sailboat refit from the very first moment. As soon as he arrived, he immediately got involved, working independently and efficiently on different projects, often even taking initiative with his own tasks and figuring things out on his own. He was eager to learn new skills and showed great interest … read more

Mario was a wonderful host. He has a beautiful place within walking distance of Ponte de Lima. Whether we were sharing stories over home cooked meals or chopping trees, I enjoyed every moment. The dogs and chickens were also a highlight. Thanks Mario!

Hosting Jake was a pleasure. He is very easy going and friendly with everyone, including our guests. Jake is not afraid of trying any local dish, even the weird ones. He helped me a lot on some landscaping projects and was very responsible housitting and taking care of the animals during my short absence. Highly recommended!
