Thailand - desde Out 2025 até Dez 2025 Ver tudo
Descrição
After a transformative summer this year I am now switching careers to work primarily with dogs. I have become fascinated with the work of Cesar Milan, but so too animal psychology more broadly!
I am solely focused now during my travels to spend as much time as I can with not only dogs but all animals. I love the slow travel experience of voluteering and seeing life through the eyes of locals and their animals!
Over the last 15 years my primary vocation has been working in the outdoors in various positions such as: a kayak guide in Spain; a hiking/watersports guide in United Arab Emirates; a surf instructor in England; and a glacier guide in Iceland. (3 of the 4 years I spent in Iceland was in a managerial role).
In my spare time I love to practice yoga, go hiking, play chess or relax with a good book or movie.

The work is very pleasant, the hostel is an oasis, Jennie is incredible accomodating, and overall a perfect opportunity to take dirt cheap Spanish classes. Discounts on tours/shuttles also come in handy.
If I end up travelling through Guatemala again next year I will be back.

Anir was a lovely host and very generous, from picking me up at Oliveira to sharing a picnic up the Serra Estrella mountains.
The jobs were simple enough and weather held out long enough to rake leaves and chop lots of wood amonist others.
Unfortunately I… read more
