Description
Greetings!
I am 30 years old from the United States. I grew up home-schooled in the central US and studied philosophy in California for college. Traveling is one of my great loves, and I especially treasure the experiences I have had working and interacting with locals outside of the the "tourist" circle. Challenging myself through experiencing different cultures, religions, and languages has been one of the best sources for personal growth I have found.
I am currently taking a year off to write a novel.
As a traveller, I pride myself on being low-maintenance, flexible, and I make every effort to contribute to or improve the situation around me to the best of my abilities. I strive to always learn whatever I can from those that I come across, and to share what I can with them.
In addition to my writing, I have been an active musician for over 10 years and have recorded multiple albums, conducted college radio campaigns, and toured small venues throughout the United States. My love for music runs deep, and I treasure any chance I get to share it with others. I also love to act and have written and acted in several short films.
I am a native English speaker and feel comfortable working with both adults and children.
My past travels have taken me to France, Spain, Italy, Vietnam, Mexico, Kenya, Peru, Bolivia, and Argentina.

This comes a few months late, but the memory is still fresh in my mind! Suffice it to say this was one of the best Workaway experiences I have had. I arrived in late October ‘22 and stayed until just before Christmas.

From the moment I arrived, I felt like a family member. Lisa, Dan, and the whole crew make sure you feel comfortable and have… read more

Left by host (Land restoration and fire ...) for Workawayer (David)

David was one of our most outstanding Workawayers ever, and we were lucky enough to host him twice! The first time he arrived just as the pandemic shutdown started, so he was part of the 23-strong group locked down together, and he was a joy to host. What's not to like in an accomplished musician with a beautiful voice accompanying his guitar, a… read more

A couple months late, but finally got around to writing a review.

Suffice it to say, this place is wonderful! I arrived on the exact day that the U.S. Covid lockdowns began, so my experience was somewhat unique. I initially had planned on staying about four weeks, but ended up staying for close to three months. As soon as I arrived, I felt as if… read more
