Description

Hi, we are Matt and Sarah, A happy and friendly couple from Nottingham, England. Here's a bit about both of us.

Matt.
Since 2017, I have been travelling and doing work away/wwoof placements and working on various orchards/vinyards/nurseries/private estates. Before I went travelling, I Co-founded a professional gardening business based in Nottingham, at the age of 18. After a few years this grew to the point I had to take on others. In doing this I developed a broad set of garden maintenance related skills, also A lot about working as a team and teaching people on the job whilst also learning and growing as a person myself. I ran this business for almost 8 years when I decided that I wanted to go and see more of the world and have some new experiences. I am a quick learner and would be willing to try most things, I take pride in what I do and like to see a job done well. I am a vegetarian. Juggler/circus skills enthusiast and A big music lover...

Sarah.
I have been travelling for 8 years, the last 5 of these have been in Australia. I am a professional chef by trade and have worked in hotels and restaurants in many different capacities. I have worked two ski seasons in europe as a chalet chef catering for 30 guests. My main interest is pastry and I love all aspects of baking. I have also worked on many orchards and vineyards. I love the mountains and have been to Banff and Jasper snowboarding and loved the outdoors, wether it's summer or winter we enjoy the outdoor lifestyle.


We are both excited about arriving into Canada in May. Ideally we would like to find a placement shortly after arriving, thanks for reading about us 😀
