Description
I'm a cheerful and adventurous person, always with a smile on my face and ready to meet new people. I love to help out where I can and learn new skills along the way. Most recently I've been working on an organic vegetable farm in Connecticut, and I'm interested in learning more skills in composting, animal husbandry, and permaculture.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
I grew up on a small grass-fed beef farm, and my parents made sure I knew how to work hard! I've worked on farms, ranches, campgrounds, construction projects, etc. I've been praised for being observant and taking initiative. I'm always game to learn new skills!

Autres infos...
I'm very tall (6'8", 2 meters!) which isn't really important, but you won't be so surprised when you see me for the first time. Also, I learned Spanish when I was on an exchange year in Mexico City, so my slang and accent are Mexican.

James was a joy to host! He brought a smile to his work and made everyone around him comfortable. He never complained about tasks and was always eager to help out. He stayed with us for 1 month at the beginning of our season in May, so he was able to assist with a variety of tasks such as new bed preparation, seeding, transplanting, fruit tree… read more

I spent a month with Ben and Greta during their summer internship. They are truly special people and the project they’ve embarked on is impressive! The lifestyle on the farm is very primitive, with bathing in the river and a humble bucket latrine for a toilet, but it felt great to feel life without unnecessary obligations and my phone at the ready… read more

James is an amazing big guy! He was always trying to help and he was very easy going with all the new plans. Thanks for be with us this crazy week with all the events. You know you have a place in Valle De Bravo when ever you want to come back as a friend!

I had a wonderful time in Valle de Bravo with Eric and his family. I spent about a week at their hotel/restaurant in town, and a few days with brother Edgar at their ranch in the country. I helped with some special music events happening in town, and then I helped as a farm hand on the ranch. Eric and Edgar welcomed me wonderfully, not only as a… read more

My week with Dustin and Mandy was an unforgettable time! They are both such easy people to get along with and its fascinating to talk to them about their various (really various!) life experiences. The work I did was mostly cutting brush, chopping firewood, and helping lay the floor in a cabin home. It was cold the week I was there, its a good… read more

James is a superstar! Wonderful to be around and did excellent work! He was continually looking to see what needed done and jumped right in. We really enjoyed his time with us and hope he'll come back our way soon.

James was great! Arrived by car and jumped right to work as soon as he turned the engine off, since we were deep in the middle of a project when he pulled up. He is such a nice guy, and really observant, capable, resourceful, reliable. Learns at lightning speed, notices and takes care of miscellaneous details without guidance, but takes direction… read more

Noa was such a pleasure to work with! She is progressing on several projects in town; working alongside her is a great opportunity to learn about construction, plumbing, landscaping and more. There is also a lot to learn from Noa's life experiences, local friends, and perspective on the Cajun culture of her adopted home. She has great tips for… read more

James is the kind of person you want to be around all the time. His natural chill demeanor, hilarity and charisma are a delight. He has a knack for always being there to be of help and during his whole stay here he went above and beyond in every single task.

What a fabulous week! This is a great way to learn about Buddhism and meet some people that put it into practice in the most impressive ways. Speaking with the residents there truly opened my mind to new ways of seeing the world. Big thanks to Jeremy, Joy, and the whole squad!! Much love
