  • Description

    We are Aran and Aris, an international vegan couple who met on Couchsurfing over two years ago. We share a passion for travel, food, community and adventure! We have joined Workaway to continue to pursue these interests both together and separately. We are looking forward to the many amazing connections and collaborations that this community has to offer.

    Aris:
    Hey! I am a professionally trained vegan chef with over 10 years of experience working in professional kitchens. I was born in Albania, raised in Greece and lived in Germany and Spain for a few years. I believe I have strong interpersonal skills and speak English, Greek, and Albanian, as well as some Spanish and a little German. Obviously my strong skill is cooking, I love cooking for people, but I am also very flexible on any kind of work and also very keen to learn.

    Aran:
    Hola amig@s! I am Aran, a certified Yoga Teacher and Massage Therapist. I owned and operated a Yoga studio in Montreal, Canada, before moving to Spain in January 2020 to work as an English teacher. I speak English, French, and some Spanish. I could be helpful teaching classes, organizing community events, translating, and in general I'm willing to tackle any task thrown at me, haha.
