Beschreibung

Hi, we are Michelle & Mark and we have been travelling since 2018. After leaving our home in Australia, we have been working and volunteering through UK, Europe & Asia. Mark works in Major Sporting events and holds dual citizenship for Britain & Australia. Michelle works in Catering/Events.
We are both hardworking and responsible, well organised and can adapt to different situations. We like to keep things clean and tidy and can do household chores, cooking, gardening and don't mind getting our hands dirty.
We love animals of all kinds and are into yoga, meditation and nature. We are non drinkers and non smokers.

We are ideally looking for like minded hosts or at least ones that are open minded and flexible and can cater for a vegan diet. We love the ethos of Workaway of working for 5 hours a day/5 days a week (2 days off) and love hosts that respect this as well.

As well as gardening, weeding, looking after farm & animals, we also cemented in 4 posts for deck extension (picture below)
