Description
hi, my name is Mark from Austria. I love to travel and the road is something magical to me. This is where I meet new people, see beautiful landscapes and learn the most about life and the world.

For my life I have been a man of the mountains and seeked challenges in the snow and rock. In 2017, I spent several months rebuilding and sailing a boat in the Med and started using Workaway.info as a new way to travel and learn. So far, I participated in projects in Jordan, Spain, Cyprus, Albania, Ireland, Latvia and Finland - mostly working on websites and marketing, carpenting and garden work.

I settled for some years now in West Austria. My professional backround is academic (teaching at universities information science and marketing mostly) I work in the field of Marketing.

Mark was excellent. He was enjoyable company with so many interesting and engaging experiences and did above and beyond in the garden. He took instruction really well and was also able to work on his own initiative. 10/10 would love to have him back anytime.

If you love gardening and want to experience Irish rural life, this is the place. First of all, it’s a very special location - surrounded by farms, hills and the Atlantic Ocean, you’ll be in nature the entire day, observed only by curious birds. Winds, occasional showers, rainbows, silence and the steady changing views of the shore and sea are… read more

Mark stayed 5 weeks at the camp. I really appreciated Mark's coming. He is an interesting character from these different adventures and travels around the world, which has very well adapted to the life of the camp so special. A character soon more friendly, enthusiastic, good living and adapting very quickly to tasks and other volunteers. I really… read more

I stayed five weeks with Charly at his slepdog farm close to Ivalo, Lappland (Laetitia and Augustin were off to France during my stay). I had an extraordinary time - with Charly, the dogs, the camp and the other workawayers staying there. Charly is super-funny, interesting character I loved to work with - he teached my a few skills, explained new… read more

We were fortunate enough to have Mark stay with us for around a month. He is one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet, he worked independently and diligently and helped us out in many ways. Thanks Mark from all of us, you are welcome back any time!

I stayed about three weeks with Ulla, Toby and their three kids at their fantastic place right at the shore of the Baltic Sea. I felt immediately welcomed and home. I got my own room and had always great and plenty food - most of the time cooked by Inga :D
I loved the work which was mostly gardening - clearing trenches, cutting branches and… read more

What can I say about Mark.....he is fantastic! He stayed with me for a month and was such a great volunteer. He helped with the farming, boat building, seaweed harvesting, gardening and my B&B. He is a very capable guy who can turn his hand to anything, on top of all this he assisted me with my website and marketing strategy. I can't recommend him… read more

This was a truly amazing time I spent with Claire and Eli and their big, big families! I cannot thank enough for everything - the work, the shared time, the experience.

How to start with Mark? It's to meet people like you that we use Workaway. A site of mutual aid but also to make good meetings. You were all we expected from a volunteer. A friend, who gets involved in the project as if it were yours, and who knows how to take advantage of all that this place had to bring you. Thank you for your work which will… read more

Gaetan & Sandra, merci beaucoup pour tous - la experience, la joie, le bonheur (Zaz) :D!

I stayed three weeks with Gaetan and Sandra in their mountain hut in central Albania, what a beautiful place! - quiet, green, very traditional (discover yourself!). Their home is a cozy chalet with several rooms, hot shower, a fireplace and a big kitchen. A… read more

Mark stayed with us for just over 3 weeks and was a tremendous help with getting a lot of DIY stuff done, especially carpentry jobs. He helped with the construction of the big greenhouse and got it as far as it being almost ready to put the plastic and shade netting on. He wanted to finish it but unfortunately we did not get the plastic in time.… read more

Where shoud I start? My three weeks passed way to fast. I never counted my days, never got bored, always enjoyed the work and my free time. Annelie and Edwin made me feel at home, part of their big project. There are so many different tasks and jobs to do, my day was always different. I could work freely, but I preferred to learn from Edwin. He… read more

I stayed three weeks with Ruben and Rocio at their town appartment. I shared my room with a nice guy from Lithuania and there were several other workawayers contributing during my time. The cool part about the town appartment is the meditation room. We worked the mornings at the new finca which is a project in progress and shared other general… read more

Mark was our first workawayer and such a pleasant guy to work with. He improved our website, created a few online booking channels, communicated with our clients through email and whatsapp. He also introduced our guests in the camp to some local traditions and helped cleaning the camp. Mark stayed almost four weeks and we would love to have him… read more

I stayed almost a month at the Camp and enjoyed it very much. Madallah (the owner) and Abdallah (son) were very respectful and generous and I had a fantastic time. The work was splitted between tasks online with their website and online marketing agenda, and some physical work in the camp (like cleaning guest tents, repairing minor damages). I… read more
