Description
My name is Mahon; I have been accepted into a Social Work Masters program with Boston College and am trying to figure out housing while I attend grad school. I would love to help someone out with errands, cooking, cleaning, garden projects, pet sitting, and child care in exchange for room and board or reduced rent. I have utilized Workaway in the past while traveling in Japan and South Korea so I understand this isn't a usual use of the site and, am reaching out with the thought that there might be some hosts interested in an extended volunteer setup. l am a very flexible person who mostly likes to get to know my surroundings and meet new people. Following is a little more about me and my past work experiences. I did a number of terms with AmeriCorps, which is sort of a US-based PeaceCorps, a number of years in Wilderness Therapy guiding youth and young adults through the woods, and seasonal work with Outward Bound. I hope you will consider me for whatever your needs may be. I look forward to talking more, and I hope, regardless of if we do talk more, that you have a great day.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
Mahon: I have experience with construction and power tools, though I do not have training as a carpenter. I have experience figuring out computer programs to complete administrative and creative tasks. I have worked as a crew member and crew supervisor for environmental trail and restoration projects which included a lot of planting and invasive species removal. I have tutored youth in maths and reading/writing for educational outreach and afterschool programs. I also have experience with childcare, youth mentorship, and creating hands-on and play-based educational activities for high school and elementary-aged children. In addition, I have a lot of experience leading multi-day backpacking trips for youth and young adults and living in communal spaces (including large group cooking). My undergrad major was studio art so I have experience with drawing, sculpture, and planning out creative projects. I grew up with two dogs and worked on their training for how they acted around people, performing tricks, and behavior on walks. I have lived in a few countries and love making new connections and making the most out of my time wherever I go.

Aki is very knowledgeable about keeping honeybees and is always trying to expand his knowledge to other beekeeping practices and the insect world in general. This means you'll both learn a lot from him and get to learn with him. Aki is a great host, he communicates expectations well and can acknowledge if he makes a mistake. His explanations are… read more

Mahon was a tremendous help and source of support. Climate change caused us to have to reinvent our systems on the fly and Mahon was right there to do anything necessary. I cannot recommend him highly enough to anyone in search of someone who is thoughtful, hard working and genuinely kind. He can do most anything and is eager to learn new things… read more

Chuck has such a good project going that he is diligently trying to connect in a greater way to the community and environmental sustainability. Chuck really tries to be clear on his expectations and project goals. I got to help out with farming more than I think either of us thought I would based on the time of year. It's farming though so you… read more

This was my very first workaway and I'm so glad it was. Sookhee is an incredible host, a very funny person, thoughtful, and so kind. She truly does act as a sort of mom for all of the volunteers. Mr. Hwang is generous and patient. He speaks no English but he tries to connect and work with the volunteers and generously let us stay in his home. He… read more

Jumunjin is an incredible location to spend some time in! I really hope Damien can keep the guesthouse running because it truly is in the perfect location and he does make sure he's staying connected to the community and showcasing the area. As a volunteer you have a lot of freedom to work on projects that interest you. I got to construct shelves… read more

This was the first, and only, language cafe I have volunteered with but it was such a positive experience that it's convinced me to look for them again in the future. Yoon was a great manager and always made sure we were in the loop and that our dorms were stocked. The dorm was in a constant state of mess. The mess is just from years of volunteers… read more

Dai and Hila are wonderful people, both individually and as a couple. They had the most accurate profile to what my experience with them was like that I've ever had with a host. Hila and Dai both make lovely and healthy meals that were comforting and filling. Hila and Dai ensure you only work the hours agreed upon, have your full days off, and are… read more
