Description

Travelling the world for 18 months changed my life, largely thanks to the amazing people I met on workaways!! I am no longer pursuing a career in web design, and have started working in conservation in the United States.

I am very interested in developing my skills related to construction, natural building, gardening/permaculture, and running a homestead.

I also deeply enjoy intentional communities of like-minded people. I’m searching for a community I can be part of long term (years).

As far as hobbies go, I’m a naturalist with a special interest in birds and trees, I enjoy everything active: hiking, running, cycling, sports, etc, and I love reading.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I've started working in conservation in the US, specifically invasive species management. Besides that, I've learned a lot from previous workaways:

Construction/Carpentry: I spent 3 months at an eco-village helping build the timber frame of a circular house, and am comfortable with power tools.

Gardening/Homesteading: I've planted/weeded/harvested etc at several workaways, and done basic things like feeding sheep and shoveling manure.

It was really a joy to have Sam stay with us for about a month. He has an incredible zest for life and learning. He became part of our family and was loved by us, our other helpers and our friends that he came into contact with. Sam is enthusiastic, energetic and respectful with a great sense of humour and is very motivated with any job. He … read more

I got to stay with Marc and Kerrianne for about a month, and it’s one of the best workaway experiences I’ve ever had.

Each day was so fulfilling with a mix of meaningful jobs to do. I helped pull out lots of invasive lantana and other weeds, planted native trees, weeded and mulched around their very productive garden to name a few, along with … read more

Doug is such a kind soul, I really enjoyed spending 3 weeks with him!

I loved how varied the work was - I got to do a mix of jobs in, around, and under his house. It was the perfect mix for me of hard physical work (by choice!), gardening, and some computer work inside. I really feel like all the work I did made an impact. There’s a lot of art … read more

Sam's the man! Up early and 'busting a gut' at every physical job thrown at him. He relished the hard work like a man that had been tied to his desk for too many years. Holes dug, stumps removed, concrete blocks levelled and laid and given clear instruction of how to do.....it was done the next time you looked. He accomplished heaps with my … read more

We enjoyed having Sam stay here with us and helping out with our project. Sam is a dedicated learner whose enjoyment of self-expansion is truly joyous to be around. Sam likes to challenge himself and we got to see him grow in confidence and knowledge over the time he stayed with us. One thing I really enjoyed seeing in Sam was seeing him share … read more

I spent two months working with Benjamin on his beautiful house, and grew so much during my time here at the ecovillage.

Benjamin is a very knowledgeable owner builder, and a fantastic teacher. I came here knowing literally nothing, but with his constant feedback and support I feel confident in my newfound building and carpentry skills. Together … read more

This workaway was truly outstanding. If you’re looking to dive deep into learning Buddhism and Confucianism, this opportunity will be perfect for you! I came into this knowing nothing, and left with a profound respect for and desire to learn more about both Buddhism and Confucianism.

All of the staff and volunteers here have such kind hearts, … read more

Sam came in with an open mind and enthusiasm to 'try it on' for two weeks. It was great having his thoughtful questions and reflections on his own experience with Buddhism and Christianity when we had daily practice or classes. Checking in about tasks for the day and his willingness to help out with all cleaning tasks that affect all the staff and … read more

I stayed 5 weeks with Senpo, and it was a very unique experience with many ups and downs. I learned so much about Taiwanese culture, cuisine, history, slap therapy, and more. I also gained valuable hands-on construction experience working with metal and bamboo, and Senpo even taught me how to use his excavator!

The highlight of my time here was … read more
