Description
After graduating for Exeter last year, we have been travelling and doing workaways across Portugal, Morocco and the Balkans which we are still exploring. We have loved every minute and every experience we have had so far on workaway and cant wait to continue for another year!
So far we've helped with landscaping, building, agricultural and cultural projects, hotels and have most recently been staying for some months in a hostel in Albania. We are not masters but have experience in all these fields and can't wait to learn even more in the future!
Rachel is a outgoing and outdoorsy with a laugh you can hear from miles around. She is laid-back and in her element in a hammock with a cold beer. Rachel loves getting lost in nature and the world of art. A proper sea dweller you'll often find her laying on a beach or trying some new watersport!
Equally loud, James is a gentleman and a scholar with more fun facts than you can count. Kindhearted, friendly- there is never a dull moment with this man whose interests run from politics to drum and bass! Also a lover of the outdoors, james is in his element climbing up a big rock or sailing with a cold cider in his hand!
Together, we want to explore the world in all its natural beauty and meet a host of incredible people on the way!

Rachel came to us alone initially and really brightened every single day with her laughter and big personality. Just like everybody else, Riza (our dog) absolutely fell in love with her as she would take hours out of her day off-shift to walk and feed her, she really knows how to find… read more
We spent a few weeks with Anna and Pjotr around October and November 2022. They are exceptional hosts that are welcoming and brilliant fun. The work is physically hard but so so fulfilling - we left with a smile on our face and strong arms! Their project and the ideas behind… read more

They both have such great character and are happy and hard workers and would fit in easily to any situation as are very adaptable.
Any host would be lucky to have them!
