Description
Greetings,

October 2023 update...
I am returning to the US and will be here through December. I have a background in farming/gardening and hospitality services. I am reliable, and honest. I have a good sense of humor, and generally live life with a smile.

Over the past five years I have enjoyed working at a variety of Workaway locations and preferred those positions that were project based or involved an organized daily routine. However, I am adaptable and always happy to learn new skills.

I enjoy traveling slowly, taking the time to really know a place and its people. I also enjoy all-things science, birding, cooking, music, reading, and learning as much as possible about this big, wide world.

Please reach out if you believe I am a good match for you and your Workaway needs.

Cheers,
Mariann

I had a fabulous 2+ week stay at Roy's in November 2022. I initially did some indoor tasks due to heavy rains. However, I primarily worked with two other Workawayers on Roy's garden projects which consisted of pruning, planting, and re-establishing a walkway and steps through the garden. The three of us all had a keen interest in gardening and… read more

TACO bout awesomeness in the form of a human!! Mariann was an integral part of the taco team and we loved having her here in the community. She jumped into the work and was even cooking tacos within 2 hours of meeting us :) Very polite, calm ,respectful and positive. We enjoyed her amazing stories of recent journeys and she also shared some great… read more

I spent two weeks helping Will and the Taco Truck and it was a fabulous experience. The tacos - double thumbs up, delicious, true Mexican-style tacos in central South Island, New Zealand - brilliant. Will is a generous, hard-working soul with an easy-going, positive demeanor. It is a start-up business so there are ups and downs in terms of the… read more

This was my fourth workaway stay, but the first where I stayed in the host's home so it was a very different experience for me. Non-working hours were fairly structured and expected to be done as a group or "family". The house was very clean and organized. I had my own room and shared the bathroom with the other three workawayers. Work was in the… read more

I spent a fabulous month here. My main task was gardening (flowers, trees, herbs, vegetables, fruits), but I also assisted in the kitchen and loading/unloading the boats as needed. It is a small resort so it was easy to get to know the local staff, practice speaking Malay and meet travelers from all parts of the world. The resort is in a… read more

I had a great time working for Dermot. He is a great host, is super accommodating, is full of ideas, loves to swap stories and is always up for a night out on the town. The casita makes for a fabulous home base for exploring Guanajuato and the views from there never get old. The casita is located near the "panoramica" so does require some stair… read more

This was my first workway experience and thanks to Carlos (and other workawayers staying there) it was a great place to start! Carlos was flexible with the schedule as I was enrolled in classes at a local language school. He is also bilingual which was super helpful for me since I am a beginner Spanish speaker. The work is basic - cleaning rooms,… read more
