Description
Hello!! I'm travelling to Mexico for a few weeks before my job starts back up and am excited (as always) to get to know a new place.

I just finished my fourth season as a small-scale, regenerative farmer, which is one of my biggest passions. I recently worked at a farmer's market and have hospitality, service, and non-profit experience. I've been doing seasonal/volunteer work for the past few years, and I am always trying to learn about different ways of living, working, and being.

I am always happy to get my hands dirty, and am flexible and eager to do or learn to do most things. I'm really interested in learning more about construction, especially sustainable/green building. I'm also hoping to learn more about working with animals, especially goats and pigs.

Let me know if you want to exchange language! I'm a native English speaker and I know Spanish pretty well. I love to learn about new cultures and hopefully share a bit of my experiences/culture as well!

I work hard and I'm pretty low maintenance, I like to eat local when I can but I'm not super strict about it (or really anything else).

I hope we can meet each other --

I spent a month here last October, and another month in April. We painted rooms, pressed cider, did some garden work, cooked granola, organized the freezer, interior-decorated, and learned basic carpentry. There are always a lot of funky odd jobs especially in the shoulder season, when the camp is quieter and inhabited by fewer humans. I really,… read more

I fell in love with this place. Lisa is an amazing farmer and person, and the center feels like a sanctuary. The farm/garden is beautiful and healthy, and the other workawayers and I were treated with a lot of respect and care. We woke up on the edge of the sea, had a really fun little kitchen area that we shared with some of the guests, and were… read more

Gerard & Stephanie are awesome. This hostel has a really good vibe and I got to do so much during my short volunteer stay there!! Work was very relaxed and social, and outside of work I was able to go river rafting, go on hikes, see some waterfalls, go on a huge swing, and eat some delicious San Agustin vegetarian cuisine. I really recommend this… read more

My experience here was beautiful. Marta, her family, the guides, and all of the rest of the hostel community really make you feel at home. The tours are very personal, in-depth, and exciting; I learned much more about the plants, fruits (there are so many!!), culture, and history of the jungle than I thought I would. Between tours, the hostel has… read more

Gigi is THE perfect volunteer one could ask for. Unfortunately she was only able to stay one week due to a last-minute change of plans on her side, but we still enjoyed the time with her a lot.
Her experience in previous volunteerings and works in farms make her very independent and valuable in a farm like ours. She helped us with the compost,… read more

Well, where to start about this fantastic beautiful lady!

Gigi came to us to undertake some tasks in harvesting lavender and making some lavender bags. Well. By the time Gigi left us, we had a whole system for lavender and basil care and harvesting and drying, a range of food products and a great set of visitor information that we can use in the… read more

I spent two months at this place and it felt like a whole lot longer (in a good way!). It was really nice to meet everyone working at the place and having my own little project (mostly drying and experimenting with lavender) to manage. The autonomy I had working here was pretty cool - I left feeling personally invested in how the lavender field is… read more

I spent two weeks at this beautiful farm and felt completely at home. We stayed in the top floor of the volunteer house, with big windows that overlooked the surrounding mountains. We had our own little space but spent every morning with Lidia drinking a coffee and having conversations over google translate, weeding a bit or maybe harvesting. The… read more

I spent only one week in this lovely lil village but I wish I had spent longer. I spent most of my time cleaning, watering the horses, sewing and looking for mushrooms/herbs. Orsi & Zola (and Samu!) welcomed me and fed me from the moment. They were very sweet, and Orsi helped me to learn how to identify mushrooms and cook them, as well as how to… read more

It was great to have Gigi in our home, i really missed her when she left! She is a kind, helpful person. We had some great talks, she is really easy to be around. Unfortunately she only stayed a week and we were away a few days, so we didn't spend quite a lot of time together. She collected herbs from the pasture, we collected mushrooms from the… read more
