Description

Hello! We are Ella (31 ) and Callum (32), a married couple from London, England. We are currently on an indulgent year long career break from our jobs back home (Consultant and Lawyer), using the time to travel and explore our passions. Ella has just qualified as a yoga teacher and coach and Callum is writing, exploring topics of grief and travel. We love to travel and have had some incredible experiences across the world, but it's the people we meet along the way that makes travelling so special. Some of our favourite travel experiences to date have been van trips in Patagonia and New Zealand, where we have been able to properly connect with nature, and a month spent teaching English at an amazing NGO in Chile. We are currently 9 months into this trip and are seeking a sense of purpose and community in a workaway opportunity. We love nature, outdoor activities, animals, children, learning new skills, books, film, art.

Ella and Callum are a super cool, incredibly responsible, and deeply inspiring couple!
They did a stop in their 18 months journey in Taltal to give us a hand , and wow... their impact was felt from day one.
As a couple, they are an absolute dream to host. In the volunteer house, they were incredibly clean, tidy, and organized. But more than that, … read more

Laissé par le workawayer () pour l'hôte (Get involved in a ...)

Where to begin! We have just left Taltal after the most amazing month volunteering here and living with Hector. This was our first workaway and has set the bar very high..! It was such a fun, rewarding, community-focussed month and we will definitely be back. I will struggle to explain how great it was and how sad we were to leave, but will try … read more and share some helpful details for potential workawayers. But I 100% recommend.

The teaching - We taught for 4-5 hours a day, which may sound like a lot but Hector leads and plans all the classes and our job was to work with a group of students, chat with them, play games, and work through the daily activities, so very easy for a native / fluent English speaker. The adults and kids we taught are all amazing and genuinely want to learn and we had so much fun together. Walking down the street and hearing ‘hola teacher!!!’ from the kids never got old.

Accom & food - firstly the FOOD. Hector prepares incredible, healthy whole food every weekday (curries, porotos, soups, pad thai etc), and there’s always plenty of it we often didn’t buy dinner. For breakfast there’s oats, yogurt and fruit. We felt very healthy and well fed the whole time we were there. The house has everything you need - wifi, washing machine, well stocked kitchen, comfy bed, living room with projector for movie nights. Everyday I’d wake up with a huge smile on my face and there would always be some hilarity throughout the day.

Taltal life - We had grand plans to leave taltal and explore the surrounding areas in Chile every weekend, but we actually spent the whole time in Taltal cos there was so much to do. We played padel multiple times a week with Hector’s friends, there are free tennis courts and a free gym. Beautiful coast to walk / run along. We were welcomed very warmly into the community, being invited to birthdays, dinners, to play padel etc. There’s load of opps to get involved in the vibrant local community, and they organize lots of fundraising / community events too.

The biggest shout out goes to Hector, who has run this amazing NGO for the past 14 years. He is so kind, generous, hilarious, inspirational and one of the hardest workers I have ever met, but always doing it with a smile and in a way that makes it seem so easy. The impact he has had on the community is obvious and we feel lucky to have been a very small part of that. We genuinely feel like we have made a friend for life.
