Australia - von Okt 2024 bis Sep 2025 Alle anzeigenBeschreibung
Hello,
We are Chloe and Dan, from the UK, travelling around Australia from now until late September 2025.
Back in the UK I’m an ecologist and environmental educator, with a love for horse riding, climbing, snowboarding, and animals. I have trained ponies from being unhandled to ridden, and can ride from 12hh upwards. I’ve worked abroad in a variety of countries leading students on mammal survey expeditions, and previously ran the internship programme at a wild animal rescue centre in Indonesia, which included animal care, help in the vet clinic and animal enrichment, alongside all my people management duties. I am also a qualified yoga teacher, but have yet to teach - and would love to start!
Dan is a panel beater and is very handy! He has recently converted a trailer into a mobile soft-release enclosure suitable for brushtail possums. Dan also loves the outdoors, animals and keeping fit, and we train in partner acrobatics together.
We have a 4x4 that we are travelling in/living in when not at a workaway, and neither of us smoke. We don't have any particular dietary requirements.
We have been to some wonderful workaways in the south west, and spent a month volunteering at Mosswood Wildlife in Victoria. We have workawayed in Tasmania, and with a horsey family in East Gippsland. We are now working in the Sunshine Coast until 23rd July, then our aim is to explore FNQ and the Daintree, the NT and north WA in late August, to be back in Perth mid September for our flight around the 25th.
We are now looking for short term Workaways of between 2 - 4 days for our travels once we leave the Sunshine Coast and head on to complete our lap.Interessengebiete

We intended to stay two weeks, and stayed two months! If that doesn't tell you how amazing a place it is, then nothing will.
We did a range of tasks - gardening, helping fix netting in the orchard, harvesting macadamias, driving the tractor, organising the workshop… read more
Very thankful for their help and company for a couple of days.
Enjoy the rest of the trip guys!
We did approx 3 hours work a day, helping Sam to weed his vegetable patch. A great place to visit to learn about a more efficient, sutainable way to live. Doggo cuddles a massive bonus ☺️.
