Description

Hello! I am a 24-year-old recent graduate from the US. I grew up in the mountains of Colorado, and have a deep love of world and a curiosity about our relationship with it.

This summer I am going to Mongolia, and could not be more excited! In this time, I hope to learn as much as I can of the Mongolian language and customs as well as help wherever I can - be that chopping vegetables or teaching English!

Would you be willing to host me this summer? I hope to volunteer my time and skills over the first couple weeks of July.

A bit about me:
Since October 2023, I've been travelling while working odd-jobs and volunteering.
My most cherished experiences have been meeting strangers of all sorts while practicing languages I could hardly understand. Albania especially struck something for me, and I found myself calling it home for a few months. There, they have a deep love for their national history, language, and food - all of which I thrilled to be able to take a small part in.
All the kindness they have shared with me means so much, and I am so grateful to have been able to meet Albania.

In travelling, Workaway has been the perfect opportunity. I find all sorts of tasks rewarding, and I love to connect with the diverse cast of characters who find themselves volunteering and hosting here.

Wherever I am, I hope to explore the landscapes, discover new recipes, and connect with people.

In terms of work, I have done it all: cooking, cleaning, painting, moving, teaching, gardening, animal care-giving, barista-ing, archaeology-ing, researching data-visualization, web developing... name it and I will do my best.

One of my favorite positions was teaching kids to code by making video games -- it was an amazing experience, so I would be open to any and all teaching opportunities/working with kids.

Physical tasks are also right up my alley. Give me yard work, gardening, fixing things around the house, carrying heavy stuff, assembling a solar panel array, I'm happy to get my hands dirty.
Suffice to say, adaptability is my forte. Throw me at any task, I'll get it done and do it well.

Plus de détails sur les langues qui m'intéressent
I would gladly teach English! I can speak enough Spanish to hold a basic conversation, and would absolutely love to practice. Finally, wherever I go, I am keen on learning at least basic phases, and would love to practice any language you'd like to share!

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I am a jack of all trades.

In terms of physical work, I have experience digging, moving things, gardening, painting, light carpentry, archaeology... If you need it done, I am sure I can do it.

My strongest skills are my people skills. When home, I work as a host at a restaurant.
I also used to work at a place called Code Ninjas, where we work with children to teach programming through making video games! It was incredibly rewarding to see them grow, help them have a good time, and feel seen.

Less important: I can do computer work too! I can make games, maps, and apps! If you need a map-app, I'm you're guy :)

Autres infos...

At home, I like to make videogames with my friends and can play a small amount of guitar.

When travelling, my hobbies are: walking around, meeting people, and eating good food :)

Less important, but I have a degree in Anthropology with a minor in Economics and GIS. So essentially I went to school to study people and culture, how people make decisions at large scales, and how to make maps!
