Description
I am a mature and honest traveller that previously worked for local government as a supervisor in Canada for 15 years. I want to see and experience as many parts of the world, and the people and culture within, as possible. I do not mind cleaning and enjoy gardening, yard work, renovations, and love animals of any kind. Part of my life was spent on farms, and I am comfortable with outside work. I was an online English teacher and would be happy to exchange tutoring (and some work around your home or business) for accommodations and meals. Thank you for your time! Rhonda

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
I spent time growing up on a farm and like to care for animals. I worked as a government supervisor for many years and I am educated, and now enjoy sharing my knowledge. I recently gained additional experience managing a hostel and have been a part time online English teacher. I own rental houses and often do my own renovations or coordinate trades people/businesses to do them. I love being outside camping and exploring the mountains, and I camped across Canada in a small VW Golf car. I believe in volunteering to helps others and give back to the community. I enjoy assisting seniors, caring for children, or simplymeeting new people in a positive way to bring some joy to their day.

Laissé par le workawayer (Rhonda) pour l'hôte (Help to take care of my cats ...)

What a wonderful volunteer experience with a fabulous host and two very sweet cats in a lovely home. I stayed at the flat for three weeks, spending the first week getting to know Stefania as she trained me on how to care for Noah, one of the cats that requires glucose checks and insulin shots twice a day. I'd have to say I made a good friend. She… read more

Rhonda was a fantastic volunteer for the 5 weeks she was here, she knew exactly what work needed to be done to keep the hostel running smoothly. Without being asked, she cleaned and did laundry daily, welcomed guests and answered their questions with a smile, and easily managed the reception desk. She proved herself to be reliable and responsible… read more

This was a fabulous Workaway experience, I stayed for 5 weeks and could have easily stayed longer. The workload covering reception and helping to clean and do laundry was reasonable and fair, the manager Antea is an amazing person that I now consider a friend, and I fell in love with her daughter 🥰. The accommodations and food provided was… read more

This was a very special Workaway placement for me and I am honoured to have learned about and contributed to, the owner's vision of responsible and sustainable travel and sense of community.

Very good Workaway experience. The manager Val and on-site board member Dirk were great to visit with, the accommodations were excellent and the workload reasonable. I helped prepare garlic for drying, worked in the garden, did some cleaning and drove Dirk to town. Recommend to future workawayers.

Rhonda is fantastic workawayer. She works extremely hard, learns quickly, is attentive, responsible and has a great positive attitude. She is also great company and fun to be with.

I think this was one of the best Workaway experiences I could ever have imagined. The animals, the location, the beautiful home, and the kindest most authentic host a person could ever hope to meet. The work is not hard but requires regular feedings throughout the day, starting at 8am, ending around 8-9pm. Sometimes the horses go out in the field,… read more

As my first Workaway experience, this was a lovely start. The host was very flexible to my teaching schedule, and very helpful with suggestions for travel and getting around Portugal. The bed and room were divine, the dogs (and cat) sweet and the meals wonderful. The workload was fair and reasonable as I am almost 60 yrs of age, although you must… read more
