Descrição

Hey all!
I'm Bálint from Hungary currently doing camp photography at a New Hampshire sleepaway kids camp.
Between Aug 29-Sept 5 I'll be in the NYC-Boston area and I'd love to help anyone needing a hand.

Check out my volunteering & travel vlog about my work and travels:

I've done general maintenance, grass strimming, garden work, lifting heavy stuff, pet sitting, house sitting, and similar things, about which I make my Youtube videos.

At my first-ever Workaway in Sweden I was helping renovate this Swedish wooden cabin or "stuga":

Currently I'm very much interested in learning about culture-language-identity, which I also study at university, as well as self-sufficiency, growing vegetables, garden work, learning to work with animals, being in nature, being part of a commune of people helping each other grow.
I used to have small balcony gardens and loved them, and did my own sourdough bread.

I have varying degrees of experience in different things.

During my life I have already been a:
- digital content creator (video editing, graphic illustrations, blogging, vlogging, post texts)
- English teacher
- English linguistics student (current masters)
- camp photographer in the US (current job)
- drummer and bedroom musician: recorded my own music and drum covers

- hiker: started doing the cross-country Hungarian Blue Trail (Kéktúra), did 800 km so far.
- cyclist: I wascycling everywhere almost daily (back in Hungary)
- language enthusiast: more on this below
- part-time volunteer: was volunteering last year in Hungary by helping disadvantaged children with tutoring
- technical writer
- project manager
- employer branding person

I have a category B driver's license and both a Geneva Convention and Vienna Convention International Driver's Permit which allows me to drive anywhere.

Bálint is a really nice guy, helpful, easygoing and takes initiative to do stuff and not afraid to try and learn new things. He was staying for a few weeks, painted outer walls, made a concrete floor for a sauna, picking berries and made jam, took care of my dog and cat while I was gone among other things. Felt he is very reliable and responsible. … read more

I stayed almost a month at Eva’s place. I knew her son from a previous Workaway place, that’s how I ended up here. Due to this I was treated more like a family friend than a true volunteer. I was helping laying the concrete foundation for a sauna her (Finnish) partner is building, painted some of the buildings, picked strawberries, of which I … read more

Bálint stayed for a week, some time after his first reaction on my last minute request. Finally he came and helped me trough a lot of work that was behind. The very wet spring changed the farm on several places into a jungle. With the help from Bálint I can now reach the fruit trees again to give them water and have some views over the fields. … read more

I stayed for a week at Gemma’s place. It’s pretty much a savanna-like farm in the middle of nowhere with horses, cats and a dog. I was mainly strimming the overgrown grass on her land and helping out with some stuff. She has a wealth of knowledge about horse breeding, even wrote a book about it, she breeds Russian blue and blue point cats too. I … read more

I spent an amazing one week at Céline & John’s quinta before they left for their summer trip. They are wonderful, kind people and entertaining as well.
We were mainly working on clearing the land of pine trees due to a fire hazard, I was staying in their caravan with a picturesque view. The whole place is very vertical, get ready for lots of … read more

It was a joy meeting Balint. He responded quickly to our last minute volunteer call out and saved us, as we just had a week to finish the management of the forest around our house, before leaving for the summer.
Balint is kind hearted, a great worker, driver and very clear communicator.

He volunteered on the land, moved cut trees, and cleared … read more

Balint surprised - he promised little and delivered a lot. Made beautiful videos, smashed whatever work was thrown at him with gusto and really embraced a very different environment to what he was used to. A great all-rounder - I'm very interested to know where life takes him and he's always welcome back

Great experience at this permaculture farm in progress. George has more than 80 hectares of land that he is converting into a permaculture commune with the help of volunteers and local people.

I stayed one and a half weeks at the place, which is an old school used for various artistic projects. I loved the atmosphere of the building, which is huge with many rooms, one unlike the other and with still a ton of potential. I could easily get lost there even after a week.

I had a bad experience at my previous host and I needed somewhere to … read more

Balint stayed with us for almost a month. He is a nice and friendly guy who is working hard and always willing to learn any new type of work. He helped us with a lot of carpentry, painting and some gardening, and did a good job.

He was always ready to help out when we needed. He cooked some Hungarian food for us wich was delicious 😋

I stayed at Jessica's place for 3.5 weeks as my first ever Workaway and I'm really glad I did. She is a very warm, kind-hearted, communicative person and besides being the mother of her son Lorenzo, I felt she was the mother of all of us staying at her house, of which there were always several at the same time. I stayed in the loft of the house, … read more
