Hi, we're Katie and Jordan. We've been together for five years and we're currently on a working holiday in Canada (August 2025-August 2026)!
We're currently on our second Workaway placement and have been enjoying work including renovation and woodwork, gardening, produce harvesting, cooking, food preservation, and pet sitting.
We're both easy-going and hardworking. I (Katie) have a background in postdoctoral research and was working as a data analyst before we left for Canada. Jordan was a tech consultant. We both enjoy being outside, hiking, kayaking, and camping.
We've lived together for years and have travelled throughout Europe before. We work and communicate really well together and are a good team.
We're both happy to help out with a wide variety of tasks, and both have extensive experience with assisting with computer-related work. However, we're particularly interested in outdoor work and creative tasks, as well as cultural exchange.
I (Katie) love cooking and am very happy to help with this or plan and prepare meals. We're both creative, resourceful, and handy with household tasks/maintenance. If we don't know how to do something, we'll try and work out how (safely!). Jordan is also particularly good with tech stuff and is very happy to assist there.
We both love animals and have lots of experience living with, caring for, and cleaning up after pets (not squeamish!).
Prior to becoming a data analyst, I was a researcher and did a lot of interview and focus group work with young people and Jordan has previously volunteered at a youth club. I would also be happy to look into any research, evaluation, or social history projects.
In terms of living and working in your home/space, we're respectful of other people's space and preferences (e.g., tidiness, quiet times). We love learning new things, and follow instructions and take guidance and feedback well.
We're also both learning French and would love opportunities to practice (we're currently staying with a French-speaking host), but I'm very interested in languages generally!Interessengebiete
