We like to do volunteer work in communities. My primary skills offered are Carpentry, Culinary and Gardening/Agricultural
Descrição
I love to explore new cultures and new ecosystems. I am motivated by helping others and the planet, enjoy challenges and intellectual stimulation. Outdoorsy but educated, retired military, ex teacher, carpenter and most recently retired chef. I bring a wide set of skills to the table but what makes me different from most of my peers is I have never lost my desire to learn new things. Very adaptable, can thrive in under any conditions, with very few material needs, (internet being the only exception). I am currently completing my masters in Nutrition on line

Levi and Elke stole everyone's hearts. They were awesome and fantastic to work with, all the students were so happy when they had classes with them. I can't believe we had the opportunity to know them and share time with them, one month didn't feel enough, however they're planning to come back here! We can't recommed them enough, everyone would be… read more

It was true gift to have Elke and Levi helping us out at the lighthouse last summer. Both of them experienced in the kitchen, Elke enjoyed it most. We would clearly not have managed last summer without her delicious foodmaking. Always paying attention to details and with a nuanced taste, she made us absolutely delicious plates. She added a set of… read more

Elena and Frode went above and beyond to accommodate us as volunteers. They patiently explained their expectations, showed us what and how to do it, but once we understood, they trusted us and were hands-off. We also had a comfortable little home with beautiful views of the Arctic Ocean and enjoyed our long hikes on their mostly untouched island.… read more

Personally, this was a great experience. The hosts Bill and Renee have been very accommodating and do their very best to make sure their volunteers have a great time. They have provided rides and fulfilled shopping lists and have been, along with just being very open and approachable, informed guides for the area. The place itself is very special… read more

Levi and his wife Elke were excellent houseguests and workers. They had to put up with some very challenging situations and unseasonably cold weather which made the work we needed to do more difficult but they took it in stride and had a real rural Alaskan experience because of it. They helped me so much with my plant nursery and did a great job… read more

Fantastic experience. First of all the hosts, Stephanie and Brad were friendly, open, and thoughtful guides to the region and the lifestyle. The location was tremendous, a still primitive archipelago with endless mountainous islands bursting out of the clear waters. Then there was the wildlife: at first, we were doubtful about the time of year but… read more

We were so glad to host Levi and Elke. Very respectful people who felt kind of embarrassed that we took care of them with all the meals. Finally, at the end we were glad to let Levi and Elke cook some meals for us. We enjoyed our conversations with them and were glad to let them in on our decision making of the road we have been taking and that… read more
