Description

Hello everyone!

Our names are Adam and Grace.

We love to travel and find adventures wherever we go. We have travelled to destinations including South East Asia, New Zealand, Europe and America. We want to get the most out of life and experience all that this beautiful place has to offer. We are very adventurous, outgoing and believe that we have a very positive attitude towards life.

We both love the outdoors and enjoy spending our time surfing, swimming, hiking and kayaking whenever and wherever we can.

We love a challenge and are currently converting an old Toyota Hiace into a camper van so we can go camping and surfing around the Irish coast.

We are both advocates for sustainability and believe that we must all do our part to leave the planet in a better condition for future generations. We recycle, reuse and up-cycle whenever we can, and both take part in organised beach cleans in our local area to help reduce pollution on land and in the ocean.

Grace is a qualified teacher with many years of experience teaching, babysitting and working with children.

Adam is a qualified engineer with experience designing systems and writing computer code, he is also a qualified electrician with tons of hands-on experience working as a tradesman.

We love meeting new people and experiencing new ways of life. We are foodies and love to try new types of food. We want to immerse ourselves in an experience and really connect with the local people and environment.
