Hola! como estas? Me llamo Gregorio. I plan to come to Mexico from now until September. I am really interested in learning about sustainable agriculture and getting my hands dirty. My knowledge of farming starts and ends with the little bit I gleaned from my mother's tulip garden. But I'm convinced that it is the wave of the future and want to be a part of it. I hope you can host me for a bit. Yours truly, Greg

Muy Senor Mio,

Hola,
Mi nombre es Jazmine. Soy de Canada. I am learning Spanish right now on my own in preparation for my Mexico wooffing trip. I am planning to leave Canada in September and stay in Mexico for 6 months. I am looking for a safe farm to go first and stay for a bit while I get used to Mexico and speaking Spanish. I have a little experience in organic farming, I have lived in Radium BC for this past spring and summer learning how to cultivate, plant, and keep a large market garden and small greenhouse. Most of the produce we grew here was potatoes, carrots, garlic, and pumpkins. I am very energetic and fun loving person. I have been to Mexico many times since I was 6 years old and ever since then I have fallen in love with the country, the people and the land. I am on a soul searching journey to find my true self and my courage and independence.
If there is room for someone like me in January I would be pleased to hear back and I will continue working on my Espanola until then.
Thank you for your time,
Jazmine Rose

Hi Elias,
I'm a new WWOOFer with a lot of outdoor experience but little specific agricultural experience. I'm hands on 24 year old girl with enthusiasm for the outdoors and learning new skills. I'm learning spanish at the moment and working on my art. I have just returned from the Nevada desert where I was helping to run a sustainable project that provided food for people in conjunction with Burning Man festival. I will be in Mexico from tomorrow, and I would be very interested to come and help with your project if there is any availability - I hope I can be of assistance. I'm a good worker with energy and spirit, and I would love to volunteer.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Roisin

Hola! Como estas?

Sorry our spanish is not very good but we will improve quickly, we're sure! We are two french travelers(one girl and one boy), going from Canada to Argentina! We will be in Mexico for the next 2-3 months, from the 1st of October. We will be great to come at your place to help you for a week or two (depending of your needs). We don't have a lot of experience in organic farming but we are hard workers, very energetic and willing to learn. Please let us know if this could work out for you and if it's ok, which date would be better for us to show up.

Best Regards

Kelly and Christophe
