Description
I am a gay guy who lives in Spain (UK-Irish), a world-traveller and writer who has published a novel, a travel book, poetry and short stories. I have a humanist outlook to life, have travelled widely, all continents, and consider myself a global-citizens who is keen to explore more places and to make the world a little better in the process. Very interested in permaculture, art, philosophy, yoga and meditation, cooperative, self-sufficient and sustainable living. My aim is to learn from each workaway experience and host in order to build my own permaculture utopia and offer a safe place for future workawayers to visit, help out and learn.
I am an easy-going, friendly and out-going person who believes all people are basically good and just want to be happy and fulfilled. I'm easy to get on with and am keen to help others and to be of use. I've had varied a career, ranging from being a legal representative for refugees, teaching, journalism, gardening, working for a tree surgeon, and now currently focusing on writing and looking for the ideal place to set up a self-sufficient community.
I believe in trying to make the world a little better by volunteering for various projects, including refugee and LGBT support groups, environmentalism and arts projects, and enjoy giving time to work on organic farms. I am also keen on yoga, learning new languages and artistic skills, love reading (everything from classic fiction to poetry to philosophy - and generally have several books on the go at the same time), meeting new people, and engaging with different cultures and world philosophies.
I have volunteered on various practical projects, farms, animal support centres and ecological projects from 2016 to 2020, travelling around the world from Ireland to Israel, Greece, India, Australia, France and Spain. I look forward to sharing what I have learnt and to learning more.

Cliff is amazing. He became in view days a family member. 3 weeks in harmony, in peace, in a great communication. Cliff gave me support in all levels. I could count on him every moment. He is responsible, reliable, sensitive , open minded and a wonderful person. All my animals loved him. And I appreciated each day. Thanks to this very special time… read more

My three weeks in this idyllic location passed so quickly that it felt like just a few days and I would have loved to have stayed longer. The house and gardens are so utterly peaceful, the beautiful Mallorcan landscape so tranquil, that it felt like I was in paradise. The work was very simple, as clearly and accurately described in the profile -… read more

Simply beautiful: the farm is overflowing with colour, life, creativity, music and ideas. Dani y Davide are among the most kind, creative, open-minded and loveliest people I've ever met and every day was a new adventure: caring for the gorgeous horses, sheep, chickens and other animals, harvesting vegetables from the abundant huerta, learning… read more

Cliff has spent about 5 weeks on my farm and it was an absolute pleasure to have him and I was sad to see him go. Not only is he a great cook but also a very trustworthy, dependable and reliable gentleman who works hard and like jobs to be completed and done well. He is well-organised, thoughtful, intelligent, very respectful and great company.… read more

The farm is situated in the stunning natural landscape of Os Ancares in Galicia, a truly peaceful location with beautiful views, incredible sunsets and so many paths to explore. Pascal is a generous host, very knowledgeable about permaculture and biodynamic farming, and it was a pleasure to learn from him. The project is still in its early days,… read more

This warm and cosy farm in the idyllic mountains of Asturias really is the most perfect paradise you can imagine. The vast landscape is absolutely breathtaking with so much to do and explore. I stayed for 4 months and the farmwork is varied and fun but never tiring, and there are always new, creative and exciting projects to begin on the farm.… read more

Cliff is an insatiable learner and doer who helped me transform parts of Greyhame Farm into destinations of beauty and productivity. His handiwork is always lasting and of great quality. His ability to exchange ideas with imagination is a delight. He is an excellent, hilarious human who I am grateful to now call a friend. Thanks for everything,… read more

Cliff and Alvaro were just about the best house-sitters you could wish for. They are reliable, honest, conscientious and completely trustworthy. They looked after the cat, the chickens and fed some strays on Kos island during their stay. They left the house as they found it, in ship-shape order. The house was clean and tidy on handover day. We… read more

There is a sign at the entrance which says, 'You are now entering a magical place', and this is absolutely true. We volunteered here for 6 months over the winter, and had an incredible experience in beautiful landscape that we would thoroughly recommend. This place is situated in a very beautiful and secluded place with the mountains one one side… read more

Bridget and Jordan are among the kindest, most generous and hospitable hosts you could ever hope to meet. They looked after me and made me feel completely at home from the beginning. The work on the permaculture patch is varied and never the same, from looking after the quirky chickens and runaway rabbits, to preparing new terraces for planting,… read more
