Description
Currently in Scotland and travelling around the UK & Ireland.
We are a UK/NZ couple taking a year off to travel and hoping to do some volunteering along the way.
Anna is a big animal lover, having spent over 5 years managing a dog daycare (50+ dogs a day) and petsitting throughout this time. She has spent her whole working career in customer facing roles from waitress to retail worker to tour guide.
Hamish has spent many years in the ecological restoration field: planting trees, removing pest plants and animals, amongst other things. He is also no stranger to hard work on his family's small farm!
We both love to get outdoors and are more than happy to get stuck in to whatever the task may be! -
