Description
On this journey I've been traveling since September when I arrived in Kenya, flying back from South Africa in the end of may, I would like to do something useful while I'm here.
This is my second long journey, last time I didn't return to my country for five years.

I enjoy new experiences and I'm happy in very basic conditions.

You can trust that I am a serious, honest and hardworking person. So I've been told by every employer I've had in the past.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
I speak fluent English, Norwegian and Spanish.
I've worked five years in Norwegian Airlines where I was a flight attendant, but I also worked in each area of the airline and did a study of the airline itself as an apprenticeship.
So I'm used to working with people and on a schedule.
I've worked in hotels as receptionist, bars and restaurants as waiter, chef and cleaner.
Also I've volunteered in farms and reforestation projects around South America.
I volunteered in a Vinery in Argentina making wine.
I worked as a tree planter in Australia.
I worked in support and reclamation cases for an electronic store and I have a forklift driver licence.
I have three yoga certificates and a swedish massage certificate.

Had a great time at the farm.😊
I stayed around 3 and a half weeks.
The food Anja cooked was really great and they brought me to Pieters sister who also made really nice food.
They were nice to pick me up the first day and drop me off when I left.
The tasks were varied and sometimes a little hard, but far from too hard.
Felt I had a lot of free… read more

I stayed a month at the farm. I had a really great time. It was nice to get out of the big cities and work and relax for a while.
Eilif is a very nice and understanding man.
Work was good and variating, I worked from 6-9 and 16-18 so I had plenty of time to read books and go bathing in the thermal springs in the afternoon and sometimes in the… read more

We had very enjoyable nights drinking, playing cards, listening to and playing music.
His worker Barbosa was also very nice, smiling and laughing all the time… read more

I stayed at the farm for a little over two weeks, but when I left it felt like I was leaving a home, and it was hard to leave.
During my stay we did everything from weeding, preparing the soil to planting and harvesting. I even joined The delivery my first day.
The farm yields an amazing amount of vegetables that the customers as well as us who… read more worked there really enjoyed. We were living mostly of our own grown vegetables at the farm, which made me feel very healthy. Also farm work is pretty hard and I think that as well, made me feel healthier.
At the same time the farm has many possibilities, there is a lake that is wonderful to swim in day and night, which we often went to. We also went fishing there one day. There is nice opportunities for jogging as well. And there is a bicycle there which can be borrowed. Around the area we could also pick our own papaya and there was jackfruit, bananas and other fruits that I cannot name. We made face paint and our own short term tattoos with the fruits around that Sam knew about. There was a lot of music, dancing and fun at the house. Many evenings we would play board games. It was also a great place to exchange language practice.
The workers there were great.
Sam is a wonderful "leader" at the farm with enormous knowledge of farming and plants, like a human encyclopedia. He also knows to have fun and brought drinks(beer and cachasa) from the city from time to time and made bonfires.
He also has a really cute dog that stays in the house.
Maira was a lovely girl who brought a lot of liveliness and colour to the place, always dancing or singing around the house.
Chris the neighbour who also work on the farm is a peaceful guy who lives with his wife and son next door. Also a nice addition to the team.
Krill who works the website and comes by from time to time was also super nice.
Esther, A nice lady we ate lunch with most days felt like a replacement grandmother and made awesome food.
Felipe who owns the farm was very busy with marketing for the farm and getting customers so we didn't see him that much, but he came by to check things from time to time.
The volunteers were so awesome.
I felt like I was leaving a best friend when leaving the long term volunteer Bruno. A very thoughtful man with a big heart.
I also will miss Jonathan, Irma, Solveig, Keyian, Felix, Laurent, Luke & Laila.
