Descrição
Hey there, I'm an Iranian architect and performer on a mission to explore the world, learn new skills, and connect with like-minded individuals! Two years ago, I quit my architecture job in NY, stowed away my belongings, and set off on an epic adventure filled with theater and travel.

My first workaway experience took place four years ago in a rustic mountain house in northern Italy. Can you imagine waking up to a breathtaking view of the Alps every morning? It was such an enchanting experience that I knew I had to do more. Fast forward to now, I've just spent six months in New Mexico (yes, during the pandemic!) with an incredible community of performers and artists, learning new skills, and embracing mindfulness in a peaceful environment. During my time, I worked on variety of projects from gardening to stage design. After my time in New Mexico, I volunteered at a theater festival in Frankfort, Germany, with approximately 70 volunteers from around the world. We all worked as a team to set up and organize the festival. During the festival, I worked as part of the backstage team, and also helped in the kitchen. It was an amazing experience, and I was able to use my skills and passion for theater to help bring the festival to life.

As an architect, I can help with some construction and design projects, while my passion for theater and performing arts makes me a perfect fit for any stage design or performing arts project you might have. I'm always eager to learn new things and grow as an artist, with the ultimate goal of creating my own performing projects.

I'm also an avid dancer. Dancing is how I express my emotions, and painting is my creative outlet. After spending four years in the bustling city of New York, I'm ready to swap skyscrapers for green pastures and countryside living. I'm excited to learn about gardening, farming, and new cultures while practicing new languages. However, what really lights up my soul are art projects, and in particular, those that revolve around theater.

In addition to my love for theater and the arts, I'm also a big animal lover. I enjoy spending time with all kinds of creatures and have a soft spot for furry friends in particular. So, if you're looking for a helping hand with your animal care needs, count me in!

Kiana is a super cool solo traveler who came here and offered so so much in terms of work, conversation, energy and fun. A well travelled woman with a great world view she fit in super well to our community here and we all missed her when she left.

I read all the positive feedbacks here, and I felt I need to go to this place and I am so happy that I did! I think beside the beauty of nature around you, Colm’s presence and character is what makes this place so special. He is so sweet and kind with so many talents. He knows how to connect with each volunteer and make them feel comfortable. He… read more

Marta and her family are all so kind and lovely and what they do is so inspiring.

Kiana and her friend Leon were such a great help and nice company. They cleaned up the whole garden, repaired our bicycles, repaired a shade (I would have had no idea how to do that), trimmed the bushes, cleared the roof and walls of ivy and leaves and cooked a dinner for us. And all that in just four days. They played foosball and other things… read more

We had a lovely experience at Beate’s place. We reached out to her kind of last minute but she responded so quickly, and she was so flexible and nice from the beginning.
We had our own suit at the basement with a bathroom & a small kitchen which was so convenient. We did some gardening and some other easy and fun jobs around the house. Beate… read more

We feel blessed to have added Kiana as a member of our extended family! Kiana took a leap of faith, leaving her job and life in New York to embark on a journey...and we're so glad that journey led her to us here in New Mexico. She stayed with us for about 6 months and was one of those guests who just fit right in SO easily, and it felt like she… read more

I was so lucky to get introduced to this beautiful place through one of my friend, and I was received with love and kindness from the first day. I was planning to stay for only one month, but it turns out to be almost 6 months! Even then, it was hard to leave. Everyone in the community are hardworking, enthusiastic, beautiful & kind beings who are… read more so passionate about what they are doing. This was so admiring to me. I found everything I needed in this place. Morning movement classes (Thanks to Beautiful Deborah), meditation, drum & dance ( one of my fav), music, dance, performance, and more importantly people that you could get silly with and laugh! This is a place that you can be yourself and they appreciate your silliness and any sort of craziness! :D There are many talented people in this community and they are so generous to teach you their skills. I got to learn playing guitar, drawing portrait, vocal practice, hand drumming etc. Also they motivate your creativity and makes you feel that your are special!!

In terms of work, there are variety of works, indoor and outdoors. They always pay attention to not give you works that your are not able to do. I had a knee injury and they always were so caring about it, which I appreciate a lot!! Also I had a chance to get involved in some of the creative projects, helping with stage design, performance, etc. It was so much fun and I am so grateful for the opportunity!
There are many many big and little things that I am grateful for in my experience here. Each person of community will have a place in my heart in a unique way. I love Christine and our little chats, and her amazing cooking which she makes with love, I loved practicing Farsi with Sophia and her beautiful laughter, Beautiful Sara and our dancing, creative & fun Olivia who always make sure travelers have enough fun, and... I can keep going for ever. I really appreciate everyone in the community and also the special connection and friendships I made with other travelers.

Aaand Lisa!! It is hard to write about her in away that does not sound unbelievable or fake!:))) Because she is unbelievably one of the sweetest and loveliest person I have ever met, and I cannot express enough how much I appreciate her and her caring. I love you Lisa:**

I am really grateful for this community for providing a place full of love to exercise mindfulness and consciousness on a daily basis. I learnt a lot here. I would love to come back!

Grazie Kiana for everything. Even if you claimed to have little manual skills you have been cutting wood, building stuff, lifting stones, cooking meals, dancing a lot, having fun, cheering everyone up. And all of these things were amazingly done, so we are thanking you! Obviously you will always welcome

This was a new experience for me, and I was a little nervous about it, but by the time I got into the mountain house, I was amazed by the beauty of the place and also the people. The Physical work was so satisfying . When you feel you actually use your body & your mind to do the job, in a different way that you have never used, then enjoying the… read more
