Description

Hi!

My name is Greg and I am an American citizen who has a huge passion for food, culture, outdoor recreation, and languages!

The past few months have been a time of exploration in my life. I decided to leave the corporate lifestyle back in July, and challenged myself to get out of my comfort zone. I believed that there was so much more to life than working in an office 8 hours a day/7 days a week.

I have made several goals in life for myself:

Last year during the pandemic, I challenged myself to do as many backpacking/hiking trips as I could within the western half of the United States (California, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, Colorado). What made this even more special was introducing more friends into backpacking and outdoor recreation. I enjoyed seeing friends learn to love something that I had a great passion for as well. It was also really important for me to get people outdoors to raise awareness about the importance of protecting and preserving our ecosystems.

The current goal that I'm focused on is to learn French at the same level fluency as English (my maternal language). I am proud to say that within 1 month of taking intensive classes for 5 hours a day/5 days a week, I am somewhat conversational in French. However, I would like to take this to the next level and challenge myself to speak only French whenever the opportunity presents itself! (hence, Workaway volunteer opportunities!!!!). I can also speak conversational Spanish, and Mandarin Chinese!

I love, love, LOVE, to be in the kitchen cooking/baking! If there is ever a moment I get a chance to cook for other people, I never hesitate to volunteer first. Some of my favorite things to cook include Italian, French, Chinese, Korean, and Mexican.

I am also a certified TEFL English-instructor, and have tutored students in English in the past.

I have travelled to 18 countries, within 4 continents.

If you are looking for someone who is an avid language lover, nature protector, and amateur chef, don't hesitate to reach out! I'm always ready to help out in any way, shape, or form!
