Description

Hi! I’m Alex - I'm new to Workaway. I’m a Canadian taking a break from eight months of intensive Zen Buddhist monastery training in Japan and Germany.

I genuinely enjoy working with my hands and being outdoors. Physical work is something I find so satisfying. I’m strong, hardworking, and have experience with farming, gardening, grounds maintenance, fence building, weed whacking, trail work, landscaping, painting, and general property maintenance. At the monastery I even had to manually “dump toilets” which is exactly what it sounds like lol. I’m always happy to learn new skills and don’t mind getting dirty.

Living in monastic communities has also given me plenty of experience with the daily work that keeps a household or community running. I’ve cooked vegetarian meals for large groups and done a great deal of cleaning and housekeeping. I enjoy contributing wherever I’m needed and take pride in doing simple tasks well.

Before this chapter of my life, I worked as a psychotherapist and yoga teacher. Before that, I served as an officer in the Canadian Army. Those experiences taught me discipline, reliability, teamwork, and how to stay calm and positive when work is demanding.

While I love working hard, I also value human connection. I enjoy sharing meals, hearing people’s stories, laughing together, and becoming part of the rhythm of a home or community. I’m easygoing, respectful, tidy, and appreciate clear communication.

Outside of work, my interests include meditation, hiking, movement and yoga, fitness, psychology, cooking, and spending time in nature. I love learning from different ways of life and believe that some of the best travel experiences come from contributing, meeting good people, and sharing everyday life.

If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, enthusiastic, physically capable, and happy to pitch in wherever needed, I’d love to help.
