Description

Hey, hey. I am from the United States and I have traveled around the country and Argentina but it is time for me to take one very long and very immersive trip out of country again. The most immersive trip I have been on was that month in Argentina I have been craving that again. I'm 20 and artistic. I don't want to be 20 and artistic and already be drained of any creativity at the serving job I'm growing tired of. I'm searching for a trip where I really don't know what will happen, who I'll meet and one that will keep me excited while taking up some minor apprenticeships. I feel everyone should lead a life where traveling is a major component in it. I believe traveling and meeting new people are the greatest ways to grow.

My main focus is to advance my Spanish. Once immersed I can find my rhythm but I need to speak more. Any other languages though I am more than willing to learn. I am also willing to teach English, textbook level or real, common speech

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I am a traveler looking to immerse myself in a world completely unlike where I am living. I will have my acoustic guitar with me. I'm very handy, whether on a farm or with my automotive schooling. I'm the artsy type and love to write narrative, scripts, poetry and paint. On the other hand I have a good balance of athleticism where I snowboard, bike, hike, surf and am willing to put in the work for any other kind of labor. I have a wide range of interests that I am very immersed in yet I am more than excited to step out of my comfort zone and learn anything new.

We were so lucky to have met Liam, and we miss him already! He brought a soothing and cheerful vibe to our family. He stayed with us for three weeks, and we had some really fun outings together in Montpellier and the surrounding area. He was a great help with the kids’ English lessons, reading Shakespeare and news articles with them, doing … read more

Okay okay, let me start by saying this. All of my expectations for Workaway or even best wishes were completely blown past by this family. I stayed with them for three weeks and it went by too quick. Everyone was not only nice but they went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable and enjoying my stay. They asked what I would want from the … read more

Well if you are someone looking for an interesting but very uncomfortable situation, here's your stay. This was an awful first experience with Workaway. Yes you might get along with Sonia but all I can say is we DID NOT. I'll start by saying this, Sonia cares very much for her land and has strong goals for it and that I can respect. What I can not … read more though is when one hosts a volunteering exchange but accepts nothing of what the volunteers can bring. From the very start everything I was doing was wrong i.e. not her way. Then I was told I work slow and inconsistent multiple times a day when I always had to stop for her to tell me to do it her way. I was told I don't work the agreed 5 hours because I take thirty minute breaks which is simply not true. Maybe I would need to drink water in the shade for three minutes of a very hot, sunny day while she was swimming in the pool, but no not thirty minutes.

Some tasks I was just new to and even those she would insult my work ethic. When I said that she was really just not teaching me, not being a helpful mentor, she only responded with a - I am a great teacher, you just can't listen. There were a few simple things I just looked over in regards to living in a completely new lifestyle, things like forgetting to put the milk away and she would tell me to. Sure, that is no problem, my mistake and I understand. What I don't though is the sudden changes in expectations like how she explicitly said she was flexible on if I wanted to start work in the morning or afternoon. First two days, 9 AM I woke and straight to work. Next two I slept in and began at 12 and somehow that was too late. I'm lazy and don't want to work because of that.

If you choose to work with Sonia, you have to be willing to live with someone obsessively particular. She is sitting in my chair to cook, I sit in another and tells me to get up that's hers. She is upset when I pick up a different glass and was about to short circuit when I needed another because I don't mix my milk and cereal with coffee (???). She also will give you all the cheap, broken, dirty comforts/tools to use. Your mattress/pillow is stained with dirt and stays moist from your sweat being in a tent in the middle of the sun with no ventilation. She was upset when I was plowing the roots with her good hoe, told me to use her "not good one" which the metal head was literally flying off of the handle with each swing (and she wondered why, as she says, I worked slow). That chair that I said I was to use snapped when I sat down and I fell to the ground.

Also don't expect to have any other good equipment safety-wise. She kindly let me borrow her sandals but when we worked with concrete told me to use my shoes for safety (I assume she just didn't want concrete on her shoes, either way that's how it seemed). So then when we mix the concrete powder, she has on a mask for her safety, and I say "you have one for me right? For my safety, of course" and she responds with you don't need one, we are outside, I don't have one for you. So I enjoyed breathing in concrete powder that day.

I really tried to be respectful at first, I am being hosted and honestly maybe some cultural differences can cause discrepancies. But you can only work for so long and say "okay, okay" when someone just explicitly insults you down to every nail you hammer. Every morning I woke up said buen dia and the first words out of her mouth were "ohh Liam, you didn't... why didn't you... you're not allowed to use the fridge anymore etc." So as of now, I was kicked out this morning with no advance, told to leave in thirty minutes and looking for a place to sleep. I still have hope for future workaway as I know it will drastically change from host to host but this was not a good first experience.
