Description
Hi there,
we are a couple travelling through south east asia, Australia and New Zealand until december 2023 before we have to get back to our jobs in Germany. We love to spend time in nature - whether in the mountains to hike for several days, camping, rafting, surfing, horseback riding or just play with our part-time dog back home.
Currently we are both working as project managers (Valerie in Marketing, Nico in product development) but we are thinking about getting a place in the countryside growing our own food in combination with an BnB.
We are both used to physical labour and have experience from different jobs. We both would love to experience the life in farm, preferred with animals, to find out if this could be our dream come true.Interests

What else ...
We both love to have some friends over and then enjoy hours of board gaming after having a big dinner or barbecue, spending time outside for a hike or a bike tour etc. In the summer we usually go hiking for several days in Austria to enjoy the peace of nature and the amazing views. Then come back in Winter for snowboarding.
Valerie is into all sorts of outdoor sports and Yoga and Nicos biggest hobby is Muay Thai.Some more information
