Description

Hello Workaway hosts! I am currently looking for a great project to work on for around a month in April/May 2025.

At the beginning of April I will be learning how to build a timber frame structure and the basics of carpentry/joinery. Following that intro course I am therefore looking for Workways that enable me to put these skills into practice and develop them further. In addition to working on building things, I am happy to get stuck into whatever other tasks need doing - gardening, painting, looking after animals... whatever you've got! Above all I'm looking to learn about my host's way of life, share experiences and have some good chats.

Some words I would use to describe myself: passionate, non-judgmental, nature-lover, hard-working, inquisitive, communicator, resourceful, creative, light-hearted, dedicated, patient, adventurous :D

Autres infos...

I am very active and energetic, and am happy to take on both outdoor and indoor tasks. Above all, I love communicating with a wide variety of people, hearing people's stories... seeing and experiencing as much as I possibly can! I am looking for volunteer opportunities involving creativity, education and environmental sustainability, but above all projects with good, genuine people :)
