Andrew is a brilliant workawayer, he came for a month and ended up staying nearly three!
He’s very reliable and happy to get in with things, works hard and has a great sense of humour. Did a lot of repair jobs and painting as well as taking care of things while was away. Would highly recommend

Andrew is the workawayer you want. He is intuitive, hard working and happy to pick up tasks that he observes without being asked. He has a good sense of humour and likes a laugh. Andrew is on an adventure that for us it was a pleasure to be part of.
