Goat packing expeditions into old-growth wilderness. Salmon fishing. Backcountry camping in a place most people only find on a map and dream about. Adventure outfitters charge hundreds of dollars a day for access to an experience like this!
I'm looking for a work-exchange helper on a working homestead in remote Southeast Alaska. The daily work is real but not overwhelming - a couple hours most days, caring for goats, chickens, geese, ducks, and garden, and other random homestead chores. The rest of the day is yours.
The arrangement: It starts with a one-month stay - enough time for both of us to know if it's working. Most people move on after a season, and that's completely fine; this place has a way of attracting people who are looking for adventure and want a real experience before they move on to the next thing. But if you're the person who arrives and just... fits - and you want to stay - that conversation is absolutely on the table. We'll know when we know.
The basics: Shared living (at least to start). Internet available. Remote but road-accessible.
This is not glamping. It is the real thing.
What I'm looking for: Someone who actually wants this. If your eyes lit up reading the first paragraph, tell me about yourself and what draws you here. Specific location details after we've talked. To begin the interview process, you can reply here or send me a "purple mooseage" (Permies version of private messages).
