  • Description

    Hi my name is Will, I am 27 yr old from the UK. I am currently working and living on the South Island over in New Zealand! I have been fortunate enough to enjoy successful workaway's in Costa Rica and Ecuador. I am looking to further expand my Workaway experiences and hopefully I will be able to help with your project!
    I am a motivated and open minded individual who is eager to learn new skills and offer my all to any projects. I am striving to throw myself into new cultures and learn how people live In these interesting times we are living through! I look forward to hearing your stories and discovering the local hidden gems!

    I am usually working as a ski instructor during the Northern hemisphere winter, although over the past few years I decided to sacrifice this trend of mine to travel. I am currently working within the wine industry, although after the current harvest I plan to discover the north island and potentially head to another Pacific island or two, where I can share my skills and help to achieve your goals!

    Spending as much time outdoors is very important to me and It is something I look to continue the older I get. I feel if more people consistently spend a good amount of time outdoors, I believe there would be less problems and stress in everybody's lives!

    I look to be back In the Northern Hemisphere around Autumn time, I plan to return so I can catch up with family and friends, I will be looking for places who might need my help over the winter!

    I look too keep my description brief as I much prefer to talk and get to know people in person, If you are looking for a sociable person who loves a good chat, then look no further!

  • More details about your skills

    I have been working within the wine industry for the last few years, working within this industry requires a lt f hard work as you are working long hours, It's physical work which involves heavy lifting etc.I have spent time helping to make the wine as well as learning how to grow the grapes! This has made me a hand on practical person and If there is something I'm not to sure on, don't worry as I usually pick up things pretty quickly, most of the time!!

    As mentioned before, I have been teaching skiing for the past few years, I enjoy teaching people and I am confident person when meeting new people from around the world! My mother was a school teacher, I guess you could say I've picked up a few tips from her!

    Over the past few years I have helped elderly neighbours with garden tasks where every I might be in the world, I enjoy helping those in need and get a thrill when I see the satisfaction from this I have helped.

    On a previous workaway, I was required to help assist with building a small house, I can confirm the house is still standing, although done expect me to be able to build a house from scratch for you, I will need help with that!!

    I am a logical thinker and In the past have set up a street food business along with social media pages.

    Oh and I have spent a little bit of time helping out on a permaculture farm/hostel In Nicaragua!

    I am keen to go into more detail, just ask!
