Description
I love workaway! My first experience was in September of 2021 in the country of Georgia.... To date, I have worked on at least 20 different workways in 14 countries. It has been an absolutely wonderful experience for me. Making so many new friends and I hope and believe really helping out all of my hosts!
I am a retired carpenter from America,But the road is now my home! I love and have some experience with DIY building projects and landscaping.having created many new spaces in an organic way that are more beautiful. functional and organized than they were before... This is my comfort zone but I am open to all sorts of different types of work!
I believe that I am a am a diligent worker and I'm very adaptible to the changing needs of the situations I encounter.
I do not have any problem being in very isolated rural settings or in active urban centers...

Robert stayed with me for 2.5 weeks. Robert is very hardworking, fast, good organizer. During this time, the large garage was cleaned, which was covered with a mixture of about 30-50 cm of old manure and hay. Robert was also able to move very heavy cabinets and came up with a good solution for the placement of tools. When working, Robert did not… read more

Robert came to stay with me for a week. He cut the hedge and he used all the odd bits of wood I had left over from the renovation of my cottage to build a shelter for my caravan and he even made a little corner bench as part of the construction. It looks great, thank you Robert.
