Description
Hello!

My name is Gabriel and I'm from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In 2015 I traveled for six months around South America and since then I've been traveling. Last year (2024) I did another trip around South America, of which only a few countries were left to know.

I've had a lot of experience from the many volunteer projects I've done, but I'm excited about learning new things. I've worked in farms, with dogs, horses, sheep and doing gardening stuff; I've worked in family houses, taking care of pets and children; I've worked in hostels, helping at the reception, laundry, maintenance, painting, breakfast, etc... I'm specially interested in carpentry. Also, currently I work as an online English teacher.

I'm a very respectful and easygoing person. Won't go past the limits one would set between us, and expect the same. I love reading, learning/practicing languages, working and accomplishing tasks and traveling. Feel free to read the feedbacks hosts have written to me.

Hope we can meet soon :)

La experiencia con Gabriel en nuestro lugar fue increíble, es un chico muy tranquilo, súper respetuoso, muy atento y trabajador.
Su estadía en Gaia fue muy agradable, nos construyó un gallinero, ahora nuestras gallinas son felices. Además es muy cariñoso con los animales... Kira y Celeste le extrañan mucho.
Te deseamos buen camino amigo. Un abrazo

This was special!

The place is gorgeous, with views to the mountains and the river. Birds fly around in their beautiful colors and sounds. You can go to the river for a good cold bath or walk along the road to the city or nearby parks. Lodging is in tent and you need to know how to stay on your own since somedays you're there by yourself.

By far this was my worst workaway experience ever.

The day I was supposed to arrive I got up at 6am and was on the road at 7am because I was going to hitchhike and I believed I could make it in time. After many hours on the road, I was still some miles away and decided to take a bus at San Luis terminal, where I got to around 4:30pm. The bus… read more would leave to San Rafael at 3am. I told the host I wouldn't be able to arrive the day we had arranged, only the following. He didn't oppose to that, but said he couldn't pick me up in the morning at the bus station, and if I couldn't make it I should go on Sunday (4 days later). I stayed at San Luis terminal for about 11 hours, without sleep, barely with food. Finally I took the bus and after 5 more hours or so I arrived at San Rafael. Basically I stayed 24 hours on the road in a somewhat scarce condition. I still had to wait for the host to pick me up in the afternoon, so I lay down on a bench on the yard of the bus station to try to get some sleep. Suddenly my phone rings, but I couldn't answer in time. Then it rings again: the host wants to know where I am. I sit on the bench and wave. He sees me. He hangs up, from a distance, I take my bags and start to follow him, from a distance. When I get to the car no hello, how was the trip, how are you or anything. He starts yelling at me, very angrily because I couldn't make it the day previously arranged and he had work to do and because I was not waiting on the sidewalk. I will not quote every sentence I heard, though I still remember some of them. Never was I treated with such rudity. At first, with a very low voice (to try to make him lower his) I tried to talk, then I just kept silent, my heart frozen, incapable of believing that that was happening. No conversation was possible. Two times I put my hand on the door handle to say I wanted to leave, but I was so tired to walk more, looking for a place to stay, and my thoughts and feelings so disturbed that I dindn't move at all.

On the way to the finca, in some moment, he stoped yelling and started to speak some trivial stuff as if I could keep any natural conversation after all that. I answered his questions, but I was out of myself, like in a dream. When we arrived I was asked if I had eaten and slept. I said "some peanuts" and "a bit on the bus". After drinking half a cup of coffee I was taken to the trees where, that same day, I worked three hours harvesting plums. Given the phisical and emotional condition in which I was I don't know how I made it. I worked one more day after this. I started feeling sick, and I know it was partly emotional. Then I had a day off and the next day I asked to leave. By this time I was being treated as a person, but I was incapable of bonding given the way things had begun. He was kind to take me to a place in the city where I could take a bus.

I still didn't know where to go, but I don't remember ever feeling so relieved as in the moment when I was back on the road. Later, on the next weeks, I tried to understand his side, the trouble he had to go to the city center again just to pick me up (if I had arrived the day before he would have picked me up with the other volunteer that arrived that day). But I don't think anything justifies the way he treated me. I don't hold any grudge. I write this in a cool blood, months later, actually hoping he may rethink his behaviour and I'm sure things could've been nice if the situation was different, but it always impresses me the way people may treat someone they have just met.

Aside of that all, for the working hours you get a lunch that consists in raw salad with bread which, for me, is not enough. Dinner is better and you can have as many apples and grapes as you want. #redacted text#

Gabriel helped us with some painting jobs we had postponed in our farm for too long, and he undertook them in a very respectful and detailed manner.

In general he asks before acting upon anything, and he’s very focused, as in zen-focused.

Also he was very eager to learn and practice handy skills, and to share language topics.
