Description
I'm a teacher and traveler, most recently studying and working in Finland. I have previously worked as a teacher in the Marshall Islands, Bhutan and in Vermont (USA). I love meeting new people and learning new skills. I am especially interested in seeing new, creative ways of living together, and I was lucky to experience that at more than a dozen workaways in Europe and Asia.

Paul invited me to the quinta when I fled from an uncomfortable situation at another workaway, and I was so lucky to end up there! It is a perfect little valley with an old ruined hotel that invites you to imagine the hidden past and the infinite possibilities for the future.

Dear Nika, Thomas, Werner and Clara,
I had such a wonderful time on the finca! Although the summer heat was a new challenge for me, the accommodations were perfect. I was able to relax and sleep in total comfort in the neat little caravan. The surrounding wilderness with scattered olive groves and fruit trees was begging to be explored and the… read more

Dear Dan,
Muchissimas gracias para todo..
It was very nice having you with us... You were a quick learner, interestet in lots of things, you could work by your own, but also easy working in a group.
We are very happy with your last project here, the transformation of the birds-house into a chicken- stable...
You have a good hand and you are… read more

Although it has been many months since I left Brittany, my mind often returns to the peace and comfort that I felt at Helen and Phil’s home. They made me feel completely welcome from the moment I arrived, as if I had already been there for ten years. It was sad to leave so soon; I could have spent many more weeks reading at the cabin and exploring… read more

Joyful!
Really glad to have met Dan, he's highly intelligent but self-depracating with it, has a natural ability to pick up things quickly and work thoroughly. An absolute pleasure to live with and is interested in everyone and everything. He, sadly, only stayed a week but made a huge impression on us all.

I had such a nice time staying in Suratthani. Aoy is the best kind of host, she will make you feel like you are at your own home as soon as you arrive. I stayed, along with a few other awesome workawayers, at her family's place in the rubber forest. We had a great time, albeit it very sweaty and mosquito-y. The goal of the work was not always… read more

I was so lucky to find myself here for my first workaway experience! Yama-san made me feel completely welcome from the moment I arrived. This area of Japan is beautiful and I had plenty of opportunity to enjoy it, on my nighttime walks in the rice paddies and on the outings that we took when there were no guests. As others have said, Yama is a… read more
