Description
ENGLISH BELOW

*** PURAVIDA NOMADA***

Estoy aquí para aprender, y en WA para recibir orientación y fomentar el espíritu comunitario.

Las actividades al aire libre son mi principal motivación, por ejemplo Surfing, Mountain bike, Escalada o cualquier otra actividad divertida , como la música en vivo.

Me encantan las plantas y el jardín, la carpintería, la pintura y la decoración, cortar leña, recolectar alimentos o cocinar. Mejoras espacios, desde la pintura y decoración, junto con la jardinería, son para mi
una oportunidad.
Me dedique al huerto junto a tres gallinas un buen tiempo.

Viajo con mis herramientas de pintura y carpintería, para poder empezar nuevos proyectos allá donde voy.
Me motivan mucho personas conscientes que desean una vida plena fuera del caos.

Mi casa rodante se construyó con el propósito de brindar una vida fácil autosuficiente fuera de la red, y sería genial ayudar a otros que quieran construir Minicasas o autocaravanas.

Mi idea de Colaboración se reduce a la necesidad de un lugar plano para aparcar mi autocaravana
(medidas: 7metros de largo , 3m de alto, 1,90m de ancho),

Alimentación es conversarlo, suelo hacer una comida al dia.

Para mi la opción ideal será 10/15h de trabajo a cambio de un lugar para aparcar , acceso a baño y ducha, quizás cocina exterior.

Solo consumo productos frescos locales.

Saludos,

Javier.

***NOMAD LIFESTYLE ***

Im on this planet to learn, and here in WA for guidance and community spirit.

Outdoor Activities are my main engine, for example Surfing, Mountain biking, Climbing or any other activity that involves enjoyment like live music.

I love plants and the garden, carpentry, painting and decoration, Chopping wood , collecting groceries or cooking..

I had an orchard and 3 chickens the last two years.

I travel with my tools for painting and carpentry and my desire is to help others to make their dreams reality.

Im very motivated with projects for conscious people who want to have a real life off this caos.

My house on wheels were made with the purpose of self sufficient life off the grid and easy living and would be great to help others who want to build tiny houses or Campervans.

My idea for volunteer is mainly to reach easily a preferably flat spot to park my RV (measurements: 7 meters long, 3 meters high, 1.90 meters wide). Food is a discussion;
I usually have one meal a day.

For me, the ideal option would be 10-15 hours of collaboration in exchange for a parking space, access to a bathroom and shower, and perhaps an outdoor kitchen.

I only eat fresh local products

Best,

Javier

Luis is a very friendly respectful guy. He realized 2 wood-projects for me and I am more than happy with the results. He is also very attentive seeing things that needs to be done and always worked independently on it. Thank you so much for helping to make my home a better place. I am very grateful to have spent those days with you, sharing works,… read more

My experience in Fuerteventura with Merle was a bless.
The place is really peaceful and invite you to be creative.
I was there to help with wood projects and all went really well, with the help of Merle to go get some supplies, we completed a new storage, a new furniture bed for her van and some little things.
I had a great time with Merle, she is… read more

I went for a hike everyday after lunch to enjoy the… read more

Luis came to my house with some plants that he gave me as a present. He helped me plant them and gave me a lot of great ideas of how to use the space, where to find materials, and how to take care of the orchard. He was very knowledgable, did everything in a very loving way (he loves nature and plants) and also has a great conversation.

I cannot say this more clearly or with enough enthusiasm. Anyone who has the privilege of hosting Javier should count their blessings. I've hosted a lot of exceptional Workawayers. I'm very discriminating about who I've had work at my home. That said, I don't think there's another Workawayer, let alone human on this planet who can outwork Javier.… read more
