Beschreibung

Hello. We are David and Jo, a married couple originally from UK, with a home in Cambridge. We haven't lived there for some time though as we have spent 2019-2022 working as consultants, helping as volunteers and studying Spanish in Argentina, Colombia, Costa Rica and Mexico. After Latin America we spent three months in India and enjoyed teaching English on a wonderful Workaway project in a village school in the Himalayas.

David's work experience includes international business development, language teaching (qualified), and book writing (two travel books published). His speciality is global logistics; he has worked in all regions of the world and established a network of offices through Africa, Middle East and South America to provide distribution and marketing options to international publishers. He now speaks Spanish and Portuguese to an advanced level as well as some French and German.

Jo's experience is in IT and project management. Her speciality is the implementation of billing systems on behalf of multinational organisations, work that has taken her to many countries. She is also a Callan Method qualified English teacher and an amateur painter specialising in water colours. Her other interests include yoga and cooking.

We have considerable combined experience in hospitality and organising social events, both professionally and as trustees of a charity. We enjoy outdoor life, regularly participate in different kinds of sport and have been lucky enough to travel to many parts of the world for both business and pleasure (over 100 countries in total).

We are sociable people with a sense of responsibility (and a sense of humour!) and always looking to make a positive contribution to a worthwhile project. We enjoy working, particularly in an organisational and educational capacity, and take a pride in being reliable and punctual. We are non-smokers, we eat all kinds of food and consider ourselves to be very adaptable.

We are currently on a Workaway project in Japan (April/May 2023) and will be returning to Europe in the summer.
