Descrição

Apologies for the delayed or late response; it's peak season for wildlife photography between April and October, but I'll get back to you ASAP.

***

During the past 20+ years, while living and working in two dozen countries abroad, I spent the past 10+ years as a nomad living out of a camera backpack and two sports bags, a minimalist lifestyle that allows me to focus on what truly matters in life and prioritize experiences over materialistic impulses. Workaway allows me to help out people with their projects while chasing my passion for travel, photography (especially wildlife), and writing.

I normally spend 3-5 hours every day in nature, hitting the fields and forests before sunrise to capture photos of wildlife and the rising sun, and I return to nature before sunset again to capture photos of wildlife, the setting sun, and the rising moon. I’m laser-focused on building a solid wildlife photography portfolio this year, so I prefer staying at places surrounded by nature, forests, lakes, hills, and mountains. I also capture videos of nature to share more of my experiences in nature that still photos can’t convey.

I find nature, forests, and mountains not only beautiful but also soothing to the soul, environments that allow my mind to roam freely. I also enjoy running, bodyweight workouts, and creative writing. I’ve been living on a budget for many years, so Workaway allows me to explore places that I couldn’t afford otherwise, so I’m open to paid jobs along the way to finance my travels and photography.

I'm as zen as one possibly can be. I have a reflective nature and a rich inner world; hence, I'm drawn to depth, philosophy, and deep conversations. I’m definitely not a social butterfly; I don't drink or party, but I enjoy listening to people, learning about their lives, passions, and dreams, and sharing stories of my travels. I often zone out; I live with my head in the clouds like all philosophers, and I never waste a second with things I’m not passionate about.

I appreciate kindness, curiosity, an open mind, open communication, flexibility, and hilarious jokes. My life is centered around photography, so I recommend you check it out to learn more about my work ethic.

I'm available via iMessage, Signal, Threema, and Delta Chat.

Quais são suas habilidades?

I'm experienced in general maintenance around the house, using power tools, deep cleaning, gardening, landscaping, cutting down trees with an axe or chainsaw, carpentry, building chairs, remodelling, renovating stuff, painting apartments, and sanding and varnishing wooden furniture, window frames, and shutters. I also worked at Airbnbs, B&Bs, and a well-known three-star hotel in Switzerland, so I'm familiar with the tasks and responsibilities of running a tourism business. I also did housesitting. There is no job too small or too big; I enjoy physical labor and hard work, creating balance from chaos and mess while confronting challenges along the way and improvising when necessary.

Yet, deep cleaning, organizing things, building things from wood, or renovating wooden stuff are what I enjoy the most.

I work most efficiently on my own so I can prioritize the tasks I'm trusted with in a way that makes sense to me. I never hesitate to go the extra mile to get the job done, even if it means working a bit longer. Yet, I can also work in a team. Having previously worked as a team leader, I understand the importance of open communication for everyone being on the same page and distributing tasks at hand according to individual skill sets.

I can share reference photos of projects I helped different Workaway hosts with throughout the years. I can also provide phone numbers of some hosts in France, Germany, and Austria who can vouch for me. Some of them hosted me several times and even hired me for paid gigs.

Algo mais...

I prefer staying in a small apartment/house so I don't disturb anyone with my super early morning walks and late evening returns.

I'd love to have a blender available so I could make smoothies for breakfast.

I prefer a non-smoking household. I'm not a fan of pets like cats and dogs roaming inside the house or loud barking dogs jumping on me.

If there is a renewable/sustainable project around your place, I'd love to hear about it because I'd love to document such projects in the future.

I'm building my brand as an artist online, so I'd appreciate a stable internet connection for online work. I don't do babysitting, petsitting, animal care, tiling, or plumbing.

I normally stay for 3-4 weeks, which gives me enough time to explore the area and to find a host where I can travel next. I'm flexible about the length of my stay, though, because normally I don't have a solid travel plan, so I'm open for longer stays (2-3 months) depending on the season and the type of help needed.

I'm also open to doing paid work outside of the agreed Workaway hours so I can fund my future travels and invest more in my photography. Message me if you are interested in hosting me and have some projects you need help with.

  Dietas especiais
  I've been vegan since 2012, so I prefer fixing meals for myself. I fast sometimes or skip meals altogether when I'm too busy. I don't follow a schedule for having meals at all.
