  • Descrição

    Hi, my name is Charlie and I'm using workaway to experience new things, meet interesting people, and learn.

    I have been told I am a calm and conscientious person by many of those I am close to. I enjoy solitude and can be quite content when alone, however, I love a good conversation and the camaraderie of working on a team. I'm definitely not an adrenaline junkie, but I enjoy a good adventure or challenge.

    I am motivated by personal growth and I want to help others. I enjoy learning something new, applying it, and mastering it--a process which is often difficult and time consuming. Over the past few years I have begun transitioning to living a simpler and more fulfilling life: I want to live more in accordance with nature and community than most do here in North America.

    I am very interested in sustainable development, permaculture, cooking, yoga, spirituality, philosophy, and plant-based medicine.

    I am new to workaway, however, I have previous experience working for an NGO in Zambia where I helped set up a small microfinance program.

    I am have always been drawn to Latin America and have spent, in total, over two years in the region living, traveling, and working. I am not a fluent Spanish speaker, but I have an intermediate (at best) understanding of the language. I would like to become fluent.
