Description

Hi!

I'm outgoing, hard-working, inquisitive and an adventurous person. I am motivated to workaway in South America primarily to meet new people, learn new skills, and to practice my intermediate Spanish.

I like to travel slowly and occasionally write about my adventures, mishaps, and findings (follow my substack:))

As a carpenter, I have a decade of experience with manual work. I was raised on a farm in outback Australia, so that's more like three decades of work experience, but I skipped my shifts a lot as a child.

I studied history, literature and philosophy at university. I'm interested in the culture, language and history of the countries I visit. I feel I have been to too many countries too quickly, and at the same time have seen too few. It is a happy contradiction.

That I am so fortunate has been one of the abiding lessons of my experiences, and I hope to give my time to others in return for a view of their world.

I'm also publishing a book soon, and have just begun writing another. Optimally, while staying, I will be able to write for a few hours a day.

Plus de détails sur les langues qui m'intéressent
I am able to teach English (I worked for one year as an assistant teacher in Madrid) and I would like to advance my Spanish level (which I hope is still ok, but sadly I haven't really used it for years).
