Description
Hi, we're Lana and James.
We’re taking a career sabbatical to travel, become immersed in new cultures, and develop new skills for the future. We are eager to get our hands dirty, connect with others, and learn from different cultures.
James is a software engineer who worked on helicopters and jets. He’s a nature lover with a deep care for animals, as well as a portrait artist and guitarist.
Lana has previously worked in a range of industries from hospitality to social media management and interior design. Most recently she worked as a digital content writer. She enjoys photography, painting (gouache), reading, trying new recipes, and baking.
We have Workaway Experience with the following:
- Wedding Catering
- Food preparation
- Gardening
- Feeding animals such as pigs and chickens
- Low skill building tasks
We are here to learn! The following skills interest us:
- Sustainable farming. Growing vegetables and herbs.
- Caring for livestock.
- Hand-making cheese, jam, and bread
- Canning, pickling, and food preservation
- Cooking authentic international dishes
- Carpentry
- Beekeeping
- Learning new languages
There’s probably more that we don’t even know about yet. We’re open to new experiences.
