Description
Hello fellow adventurers! I grew up in New York City, and am happiest away from gridlock, and close to the sound of crickets at night. My passions are music and playing percussion, gardening, permaculture, being in Nature, manual moving-your-body work, holistic health living, and using self-sufficient means to thrive.

I freelance video edit (luckily, it's work that permits mobility), play in a band, speak Spanish, teach yoga, love to help others learn how to breathe and let go as they can. Meeting new people and learning new things are what I'm here for!

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
I've been tending a front and back yard garden for a while now. Currently growing a variety of vegetables and fruit. I live in coastal North Carolina where everything is sand, so when I started the garden I laid down a foot of wood chips and went from there.

I have edited video for 25 years, mostly with Final Cut Pro. I'm 80% fluent in Spanish. I'm great with babies and kids. An upbeat people person. I love to help where help is needed. And to connect with others who like meeting new people and learning about different cultures. I have a B.A. in Anthropology from Barnard College in NYC.

I'm especially interested in learning while doing in the fields of permaculture, alternative energy and building materials, among many others.

I would love to learn swing dancing, tango, and currently play African djembe drums with a group.

Amanda was such a pleasure to host! A self starter- we briefly discussed the plan for the garden and she just took off and accomplished so much -with no oversight from us....and we are so pleased with the results....She made a difference in the short time she was with us. I look around now and say- that's Amanda's work!! She is welcome back… read more

I worked on Mary's Indian Rocks Beach property as a gardener for about a week and a half, and I really enjoyed the experience. I was given excellent accommodations - a bungalow all to myself for most of the stay - and clear instructions on what needed to be taken care of in Mary's beautiful gardens. I relished working with tropical and… read more

I spent five days in the beautiful city of Charlotte with host Ingeborg, who was very interesting and accommodating. I helped her with pruning wisteria, weeding, transplanting, and clearing out gutters. Ingeborg is an excellent healthy food cook, and I would enjoy learning more from her about German/world history. I got to meet her daughter who is… read more

Amanda was a perfect workaway spirit to have! She is a hard worker and did wonders in the 4 days she stayed with me in my garden. She is welcome to come back anytime to help me with my stuff!

Amanda is a real sweetheart. She was constantly looking for ways to be helpful. She did a lot of weeding in my flower garden. She also prepared my organic vegetable garden for planting. She did some cleaning and cooking. and even detailed my car. She came with me to a birthday party and was very much liked by my friends. I would love to have her… read more

Anita was kind enough to host me for a week. I found her property and Alachua beautiful. She has 70 pecan trees, a large garden, a very cool winding driveway that passes under arching greenery. I helped clear garden beds, weeded, offered some computer assistance. She took me and another workawayer to the nearby Krishna temple and dinner which was… read more

Amanda was fabulous. Great to have around. She's a good work, and connected easily into the rhythm of the work and needs of those around her. Definitely would host her again!

I spent a week at Cynthia's homestead and it was a very good experience. I was excited to learn that she has 27 different fruit trees! And types of plants I've never heard before, like chaya spinach. We worked outside in the gardens in the am, then took a break inside with a delicious fruit plate all from her land, and then continued working… read more
