Description
I’ve always had a deep love for travel and exploration. After experiencing the beauty and diversity of the United States, I ventured to France, Germany, Switzerland, and Ireland, and now I’m eager to explore Australia and New Zealand. Traveling has opened my eyes to new cultures and ways of life, and it’s inspired me to learn how we can all live more sustainably and harmoniously with the planet. My experience managing a nonprofit that reduced food waste and provided nutritious meals to families in need strengthened my commitment to helping others and protecting our environment. I also find joy in gardening and hope to learn more about farming and global food systems. As a vegetarian and nature enthusiast, I spend much of my free time hiking, camping, and simply enjoying the outdoors. Animals have always held a special place in my heart—I’ve fostered and cared for many different species, helping them heal and return safely to the wild. Each of these experiences continues to shape my passion for conservation, compassion, and lifelong learning.

More details about your skills
We’re both English speakers with a love for community, creativity, and hands-on living. We’ve spent time on communal properties where shared spaces and group projects taught us the value of cooperation and connection.
We enjoy gardening, small-scale farming, and caring for animals, and we often house-sit for friends—making sure homes, pets, and gardens are well cared for. I’ve owned a cleaning business and have a real passion for organization and creating comfortable, tidy spaces. James brings practical skills in household maintenance and light construction, able to lend a hand with repairs or projects.
In our downtime, we love painting, ceramics, and all kinds of arts and crafts. Whether working together on creative projects or contributing to a shared space, we take pride in bringing care, reliability, and a friendly spirit wherever we go.
