Description
Howdy!
My name is Paul Busse. I currently live in Washington State but I have lived in many states and I am originally from Klawock, Alaska. A small fishing village on a remote island in southeast Alaska. I am interested in volunteering in South America, Central America or Europe. my profession is a steam plant operator where I operate, maintain and troubleshoot industrial equipment (boilers, pumps, valves...) but I have experience working in hotels, lodges, boats, homes and even remote tents in wilderness areas surrounded by bears. I enjoy nature, working outside, snowboarding, kayaking and pretty much any outdoor activity that involves mountains or the ocean.

When Hugh picked me up at the bus stop, rocking his Trump hat, I was a bit surprised and concerned. I was wondering what in the hell I had signed up for. But despite having to endure Hughs' occasional right-wing conspiracy rants about Covid vaccine nano bots or airplane chem trails, I ended up having a really great time!

What can we say about Paul other than simply a 5+++ workawayer.
He has boundless amounts of energy. Always up early and ready to go even before every body had finished breakfast !!
After a busy day working on the land he would go for a 10 k run or even longer if time permitted.

If Paul ever offers to come stay and help a hand, be sure to respond as fast as possible, because he’s such a blessing! No task is too much or too difficult and everything he does, he approaches with a determined, optimistic, calm and analytical mind.

Absolutely incredible! The other reviews are not exaggerating in the slightest. I spend a month here and had a amazing time!
My main tasks were helping Leo tile a shower, renovating two rooms and fixing everything from a fried grill inginor to a burned out streetlight. If you are a “handyman” or a professional in the trades please apply, the… read more

What an absolutely outstanding experience! Between the ocean, the mountains, the work, and the people I enjoyed every second I was there. 10/10. Would recommend to anybody. There is a good variety of things to help with, everything from cleaning apartment to cutting trees to replacing jacuzzi heating elements. I mostly helped with the boats,… read more

Paul is the best workawayer we have ever had, just a pity he could come for a short period. He was discipline and super responsible; always ready and positive to help in everything. He has incredible different skills to be so young and you will never get a "no" from him without trying. We recommend him to every host who needs to have a person… read more

What a beautiful and amazing place! The location is awesome, and very remote. You are surrounded by nature. The work is pretty easy most of the time, the rooms and kitchen have to be cleaned and you usually help the guides prepare food or clean up the kitchen. Kirk and Johanna are super nice and very welcoming and friendly. Just know that there… read more

I can't 'bee'lieve how much I learned in just two weeks working with Chuck and Tanya! They are excellent hosts that are very nice, generous and go above and 'bee'yond. We would 'bee'gin each day with breakfast around 9:00 work for 3-4 hours in the morning, come in and take a nice lunch break around noon and go back out to the hives for another… read more

Paul is great help to have around! He is punctual, flexible, and easy going. He is a quick learner and was ready to help out with any tasks. We already miss having him around and hope he decides to come back again soon! Great sense of humor, cleans up after himself, and knows how to make himself useful! Thanks for helping us Paul! Tanya & Chuck
