Description
It's all about meeting and helping people. I travel to learn more about myself and about the world. I've had enough of the corporate life and I'm looking for a new adventure.

My wife is back home in Virginia. I am traveling solo at the moment.

I am quiet and somewhat reserved. I don't enjoy large crowds and parties but I always enjoy a meaningful / intelligent conversation in a small group over beer, wine, or coffee. I am a dual citizen, America and the Republic of Ireland, so I have an EU passport.

I am currently in France and I'm attempting to learn a bit of the language using Babbel.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
I have taught English in three different countries. I'm capable of doing gardening and routine house work. I'm not an especially good cook but I can help in the kitchen. I don't have formal construction experience but I can be a helpful set of hands if you can tell me what to do. Most of my professional experience was in project management so I am pretty good at getting things organized.

Jim was an excellent Workawayer, he accomplished a lot of work, often a little more or a little sooner than I anticipated. He was also good company and we had some good conversations, all to often ending with our mutual unease with world politics.

Whilst Jim had some negative points because he worked hard we decided not give him any feedback at all. But, in view of how he describes us we had to give our opinion of him
He caused us a number of problems interfering with our domestic arrangements and causing us so much frustration to the extent that we were considering asking him to leave

The accommodation was comfortable. There are two downstairs bedrooms with ensuite toilets. There is a small kitchen downstairs where workaways can make breakfast. It has a stove, microwave, kettle, and coffee maker. The work was pretty straightforward. I used the log splitter and circular saw to cut and stack wood. I also did some indoor cleaning.… read more

I spent a month with Anne and Fitz. Both of them are excellent cooks. During my time there, we did a lot of decluttering and put down new gravel in the courtyard. I enjoyed the peace and quiet of the French countryside. Anne and Fitz took me to several nearby towns. Dot and Bibi (the dogs) are both wonderful pets. You could spend hours throwing a… read more
