Description
I'm Tomas, from Chile & Bryony from Scotland.
Currently in B.C Canada.

Tomas has been working as a chef here in British Columbia for the last few years, but looking to learn more about horticulture as I believe the best dishes start from the garden.

Bryony has been working as a general manager / events coordinator so has lots of experience in all things events/ hospitality. But loves plants, animals, and getting creative.

We love getting our hands dirty and learning new things (keeps the mind young!) One day we dream of having our own space where we can grow things, create a greenhouse, and create a space where all walks of life can come and relax, learn, grow & create.

- We have knowledge in Photography - Video/Photography Content Creation/Edition, working with Adobe Photoshop and other similar platforms.
We travel with our own equipment - Drone, Camera, Laptop.
- Tomas is also a certified music producer working with Ableton Live.

It was an honor to be invited to Rodrigo and Rosario's project.

My partner and I we're their first volunteers, so everything was a bit of a trial. Regardless, we felted well appreciated for our efforts in contributing during a week to the Aldea.

Physical work of every kind around the property was well rewarded with delicious, healthy and… read more

It was an honour to be invited to volunteer in these project. I stood for almost a month here and have nothing but good things to say about the work, the accommodation, the people and the whole community.
Natural building requires a lot of work force, and during these month, work consisted mostly on finish plastering, setting up the roof,… read more

I only stud at Jane's place for a couple of nights due to plan changes, but i would it stayed longer.

The work is fairly diverse and the vast majority is outside. Mornings and afternoons are spent feeding the dogs, horses, chickens, and cleaning and maintaining the place around them.

Her place is small, but organized. There's lots of noise from… read more

Laissé par l'hôte pour le workawayer ()

Tomas volunteered with us for about 2 months in 2020 and returned for a further couple of weeks in February. He was of huge physical help here with many tasks especially outdoors in the gardens, with the planting and harvesting of vegetables. He is very organised, always willing to help, friendly and great with guests.

To say it was just another Workaway would be limited. Around these turbulent times, having the chance to escape metropolitan life and fly to the Wild South, surrounded by pristine nature, was more like a healing exchange of energies, the oasis of these desert times.

Indeed, there's a large variety of tasks, which the vast majority are on the… read more

Laissé par l'hôte pour le workawayer ()

How do I write about Tomas? I've had over 100 Workawayers here on my farm and I must say he stood out as unique.

We were very happy to host Tomas. He lived with our family and young toddlers on our farm (sharing the same farmhouse as us) for over 3 months. He exudes a warmth that is very rare. It's difficult to even put into words what his… read more personality is like but people gravitate towards him. He seems compassionate, kind and empathetic (all qualities I'm not overly known for). I found myself even becoming his "friend" and confiding in him about things I wouldn't say to many other people let alone temporary workawayers. Tomas is calm spirited and doesn't seem to be anxious about much. He's not annoying in any way. He's somewhat soft spoken, charming and funny; he's often making jokes. He's not shy and exudes confidence. I think he has seen a lot for a man of his age. He is somewhat wise beyond his years. He already speaks English at an extremely advanced level so he barely needs any help with the language. He's very intelligent. I think Tomas is more suited for jobs in which he communicates in some way. He's a communicator and he's good at it. He has a computer and is very proficient with it. I had him working on his computer for me almost the entire time he was here (putting up ads for me online to reuse unneeded items on my farm). I did have him doing some hard labor work as well and he's certainly capable of doing it. He's muscular and strong. I'm just not sure it's something he enjoys. He's very respectful and I really can't think of one thing he did that was annoying while here. He is very resilient to adversity and discomfort. He lived in my old 1972 RV motorhome while on my farm and it's not in the best condition inside at all. I trusted Tomas to drive my large farm truck which he drove with confidence. He is a responsible man.

He's always interested in doing different fun and physical activities. For example, he went cycling multiple times while here from my farm to the neighbouring town of Morinville and it is a somewhat long trip (over 10 km) return. We went into the city multiple times on field trips and he was always interested in doing whatever the group was doing. We went to a Native pow wow. We went to night clubs twice a week. When we had a pool party Tomas was right amongst everyone with his music playing being the resident DJ on his portable speaker. Tomas never stays home. He goes out with the group every time. He's sociable. He was always prominent at the campfire. The other workawayers liked Tomas. He was popular (for lack of a better word). He had a leadership quality about him. He liked to assume a leadership role within the group (I had 25 workawayers here at one time). I actually really appreciated this because it reduced my workload somewhat. In hindsight maybe I should have made Tomas my lead hand and paid him some money to assume more responsibility on my farm (like perhaps a supervisory role). I would say that out of 100 workawayers I've hosted he might have been the best suited to take on a supervisory role.

I took a large group of workawayers deep into the Rocky Mountains and camped. We had a wonderful time hiking, seeing waterfalls and swimming in the hot springs. We all slept in sleeping bags right on the hard ground and ate cans of beans and soup over a camp stove. Tomas didn't complain.

Tomas was an asset on my farm. I hope he comes back again.

Tomas... Thank you for the help you gave me while here on my farm. I appreciate it. My house is your house. Mi Casa es su casa

Sorry that it took me so long, didn't want to post something fast and unfinished.

It's always a fact, whenever starting something new, it's always a fact is going to be hard, different and unexpected. Months and months of imagining, wondering, analyzing, thinking about it, weren't enough time to get ready for this new adventure. Arriving at Matt… read more
