Description
We're a couple who are taking time away from the 9-5 to learn, grow, and move again. We're easy going, adventurous, people who love food, nature, gardening, biking, and getting to know people, building connection. We're cat lovers, dogs too of course.

Jennika has been working at a community forest in Nova Scotia, Canada from 2019-2023, after completing a masters in Forest Conservation at the University of Toronto, 2018-2019. Jesse is from Alberta Canada and has been working trades (sheet metal) work since 2013, between travelling back and forth across Canada in a van with his cat and some international trips.

We would love to practice Spanish, and gain more farm and homesteading skills. We have knowledge in forest conservation, flora and fauna, environmental issues, woodworking, cooking, and have enjoyed learning permaculture practices.

Jennika has stayed with WorkAwayers in Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, China, and in Chile. Jesse is excited to get involved, and learn culinary skill from new cultures and new friends.

We look forward to meeting you!

Laissé par le workawayer (Jennika & Jesse) pour l'hôte (Help on a small coffee farm, ...)

We were welcomed by Misael and offered plenty of great food from his mothers restaurant and coffee from their finca. We did some heavy lifting work, moving wet earth and firewood. We enjoyed the views from the house and exploring a few spots around Matagalpa.

We shared some chat over meals in our first few days, which was great. We felt like… read more

What a beautiful two weeks... thank you Miguel for welcoming us into your home, sharing your kitchen with us, and sharing so many stories. We loved our stay in Minas de Oro, we learned a lot about Honduras and the area, got great recommendations for camping and birding around lake Yojoa, and were invited to visit a friend's wonderful food forest.… read more

My partner and I stayed in a glamping tent for a few nights, we had planned to help with integrating new trails into the activities for guests. The folks we chatted to about volunteering weren't on site and we weren't able to get into much work aside from tagging along with a promotions team for social media and demonstrating the fun activities.… read more

We enjoy a lot having Jennika and Jesse at home. They were very helpful and respectful. We liked to show them the place, the animals and the maya's culture. They were very interested to discover our way of life and openminded. We loved to cook with them and share local and internacional food. They took care of our animals and played a lot with our… read more

We stayed 8 days with Clara, Abraham and Beti and had such a wonderful time, it was hard to leave. They're so welcoming, generous, and fun - a family full of smiles and laughs.

When we wrote them the older girls were in the city and English lessons weren't needed but they still welcomed us, offering to share meals and that we could help with… read more

We stayed for nearly two weeks, it was a pretty quiet time just picking the garbage from the beach and clearing the footpaths. The cabana's are in rough shape from a hurricane in 2019 and not being used for paying guests for a few years. We enjoyed eating coconuts and being in the sun. We hoped to hike to town but there weren't any bikes… read more

Ryan and I had an amazing two weeks staying in Bakong teaching English. We were a bit nervous to begin as we had not taught English before, but we were welcomed so warmly and provided plenty of material to allow us to make great lesson plans. Puthy and Navi work so hard, and are so kind and caring. The kids are awesome! They're so much fun, they… read more

It was so great to meet Jennika and Ryan. We are so thankful with them for joining our project. Since the first minute they walked in, they showed interest and motivation to help our children in Cambodia. They are a proactive couple, always willing to help with anything and with a warm heart. They have succeeded in their role as an English teacher… read more

We had a great 12 days with Arnatt on farm. Arnatt was a great host, he is very friendly and patient. On the weekend he dropped us off at Khao Yai national park (which was beautiful). We helped with watering greenhouses, feeding chickens and the dog, collecting eggs, reinforcing the chicken coop, tarped another greenhouse, and put hay around… read more
