Description

Hello loves!

We are Molly and Ted, two curious minds that just finished our bachelor's degrees in Environmental Sciences and Natural Resources Planning. We are ready to move into the next phase of our lives of wandery exploration, connecting with different ecological systems and building on our understanding of the complex world we live in. Molly and Ted can often be found dancing to live music, identifying plants, and cooking yummy meals.
We are excited to be part of workaway for wow so many reasons. Here's a few: to further explore the bounds of ourselves, question our understanding of the world around us, and to gain knowledge from hosts about ecological restoration, ethical building practices, traditional agricultural practices, world perspectives that may differ from my our own, and a chance to connect with the natural environment we have never been in before.

Molly has an energizer, optimistic personality and Ted is often the one to balance the energy by offering a rational. steady, and relaxed mind to the space.
