    IMO, this is THE way to travel. For a year and a half I traveled through Central and South America doing “WorkAway” (similar to Worldpackers) and what’s funny is when I came to Bolivia to volunteer on a farm, I fell in love with the host and we are now together for over a year hosting people from all over the world to learn all things permaculture. It’s so enriching to see how impacted people are when coming here just as I felt while traveling and volunteering. Happy to finally see you jumping into this way of travel!

    Just wanted to say thank you soooo much for creating this video! I'd never heard of world packers before and 24 hours after watching this I'm now travelling solo to Estonia in December to film content for an eco forest lodge! Haha! Also, cheers for the discount code much appreciated 🙌💝

    AMAZING! I found your channel last month when I started planning my backpacking trip starting in Croatia, Montenegro, Albania and ending Greece for the end of September and I am always so eager to watch your videos. I just love how you choose opportunities that take you outside of your comfort zone, while still being safe and connecting with new people and cultures. If there's one thing I've consistently noticed from your videos it's that you aren't afraid of a challenge and you are so respectful. Sending love from SF. ❤

    Thank you for sharing this. I am planning a long 3 - 6 month adventure for myself. To learn the ways of homesteading, as part of my mission. To be independent for all that is important. As well as spreading knowledge of woodworking blacksmithing so that people may also thrive. And find those that resonate.
    Seeing an attractive lady like yourself also gives me some hope that perhaps (maybe) I find a partner on the journey. Thank you.
