  • Description

    Aloha Hosts!

    My name is Vlad!

    I have experience as a Workawayer during last 6 years. I have decided to take a career break and stay away from laboratories for some years. I discovered that Workaway is an amazing possibility to help people, to meet interesting people and acquire new knowledge and skills. I did workaway in Canada, Quebec, British Columba, USA, Florida, Hawaii, Cuba, France, Switzerland, Italy and Spain.

    In 2018-2023 I worked at farms, gardens, did renovation, landscaping, planted and trimmed trees, prepared preplant, worked with vegetable seeds, created vegetables beds, cut grass and repaired lawns, played with children walked with dogs and so on. Have some knowledge how plants and vegetables grow in continental, subtropical and tropical climate. Helped to prepare trellises, that very important technology in windy arias. Installed drip irrigation systems for vegetables and gardens. Worked in green houses too.
    I open to different kind of works and knowledge exchange.

    I’m easy going and friendly man, motivated, peaceful and respectful, positive, optimistic, open-minded, fast and easy learning new skills. I love to work in a team.
    I like the arts, books and music, nature, gardening, cooking and a healthy lifestyle. I am very aware of ecologic problems, green organic agriculture.
    I like to help people, it is good for Carma, love challenges and simple pleasures in life.
    I have some knowledge and experience in the design and creation of Permaculture Food Forest, Japanese and Zen meditation gardens.

    I was a researcher, chemist and biotechnologist from Montréal, Québec. At the end of 2017 I finished my research project concerns of developing new technologies and anti-aging substances for healthy aging and prolongation of human life.



    I studied different diets, medicinal plants, different kind of anti-aging therapy, age-related diseases, geroprotectors, anti-aging substantives and so on. I am practicing yoga and medicinal Qi Gong, chinese massage, acupuncture, not smoking and drinking.

    I vaccinated with Moderna and have a good health.

    Thank you
    and all the best,

    Vlad
