Its a fun jaunt really. Staying the full length of a tourist visa if it works out. Volunteering in various places in exchange for board, hopefully learning some skills along the way. Like building american style prefab wooden houses, working on farms, a bit of conservation/animal rescue stuff. Also, hopefully get to check both see and play some music. (am into folk/bluegrass type stuff).
Fancied "living" somewhere else for a while, not a mindless holiday but becoming a semi-local by doing local things. This is why I chose an english speaking place, so its more practical. America also seems to have some of the most innovative/experimental methods of sustainable agriculture. Keen to learn about it.
