Description
Hi there!
We have been enjoying our time finding new hobbies in the nature back home, and are ready to branch out on a new adventure! We want to immerse ourselves in a new country and experience the nature, communities, and food within another culture. We love to travel and explore and cannot wait to find a place to journey to and learn from!

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
Mika:
I received my Bachelor's degree in Child Development and minored in Psychology. After that, I obtained my Multiple Subject Teaching Credential. I have always had a passion for working with people (children specifically, but not limited to!) and love to learn new life stories! Although that is what my education was in, I have many other hobbies and skills that I enjoy utilizing as well. I enjoy art of many kinds! Whether that is making earrings with clay, crocheting, or learning how to build things with my hands, I enjoy the creative process. I have had a range of jobs including being a zipline guide, barista, swim instructor, preschool teacher and many others.

Abdul "Azeem":
I have a deep passion for traveling and sharing cultures/experiences .My last travel experience I set up a go fund me for doctors with out borders and raised up to $2000 dollars. The premise of the trip was to road bike from San Fransisco, California to Seattle, Washington, which took 30 days. The reason why I choice Doctors Without Borders was because I've worked as a surgical tech for two years. A small, more recent project I did was to help tend my sisters vegetable garden, so I don't shy away breaking some sweat from moving dirt.

Workaway experience:
Together we just spent a little over 2 weeks living with ~15 people on an organic farm in Awa, Tokushima. There we did numerous tasks on the farm such as weeding, harvesting, planting seeds, as well as some house work such as plastering walls. We also had the opportunity to cook for the house on several occasions. We had such a special time getting to know the other workawayers and staff, playing games, exploring the area, cooking, laughing and enjoying a slow farm life. We wish we had planned to stay longer because it was so sad to leave and we hope to find another experience to get to meet new people!

Together, we enjoy spending time outside and finding new ways to be active in the nature. One of our favorite new skills is rock climbing (both bouldering and sport) and are excited to find new areas to utilize this hobby. Hiking, camping, and surfing are also always on our radar! We enjoy cooking together and are happy to learn new recipes and share a love for food!

We stayed with Aprianto and his family for 2 weeks and we will never forget this sweet experience! While you stay here, you really do feel a part of the family. They even brought us with to a family wedding and let us join in the karaoke that often ended the evenings. This Workaway does require a small fee each day, however it is very worth it!… read more

They both brought a bright atmosphere to this farm in their short time here. They were very proactive in trying to understand the rules and nothing was too much trouble. Their service-oriented attitude was evident in the lunches they prepared. It was a good impression to see them working hard to prepare lunch. We would love to have a good time… read more

Today we are leaving the farm after staying for a little over 2 weeks, and we regret not planning for a longer stay. This was our first Workaway and it was such a special experience. We had so much fun living, cooking, and working with the other people on the farm.

The people and community created with each new arrival is what makes the… read more
