Description

I am a fit, active (youngish!) retiree currently who spends the summer exploring Europe in my home-converted campervan. I’m looking for Workaway opportunities where I can trade my skills and energy for a safe place to park and a chance to contribute. I value a eco-conscious minimalist lifestyle and aim to leave a small footprint wherever I go.

I am more than happy to sleep in my van, though I appreciate access to basic facilities and, most importantly, a safe spot to park up.

Skills include most DIY/handy-man tasks, gardening (had an allotment for several years) and cooking (really enjoy cooking for large groups). Not looking for a cheap holiday, but an interesting and rewarding experience.

I will be available from 01/09-30/09 and looking to spend 1-2 weeks on Workaways.

Philip was a most excellent workawayer. After the two weeks he spent here he felt like part of the family and a proper friend. He embraced any task that we did together . Not surprisingly , being a man of his broad life experience he had great advice and suggestions to impart. And I was very grateful to be able to bounce ideas off him for the big … read more

Had a wonderful experience - hard work, dog walks, swimming in the lake and the odd drink as well. I had planned to stay a week, but ended up spending 3 weeks there. And thank you Frances, you were really kind and helpful. Until next time!

Philip helped us with wood construction work cooking and preparation of events.
With his crafty skills, hands on mentality, openness and creativity he was a great help in every realm.
We appreciated his friendly manner and helpfulness. We can strongly recommend him as a Workawayer.

I had a wonderful week volunteering in the community, extending and getting the outdoor living area into shape for the summer. We prepared and ate some great food, joined in on a music night, relaxed in a sauna evening and most of all I enjoyed meeting all the members of the community.
