Description

We just arrived back in Vancouver, Canada, our home town after a 4.5 month cycling trip from Canada to Mexico! We had amazing hosts in each state we visited, they made our trip possible, we are so greatful for this wonderful platform. We returned back home to be with family and rejoin our community in between travels. We have been petsitting via the app rover while in Vancouver to connect with people, animals and make enough to support our lifestyle in the city. We have plans for a new adventure in the coming months. We're looking forward to traveling to eastern Canada. We'd love to meet canadians living alternate lives to us and experience more of where we were born. If you like stories of adventure and vast experience we have many to unravel and share. Hope to connect with more great people and participate to whatever projects you may have!

More details about your skills

Both of us have developed most of our applicable skills together, at work in our home country, and abroad on work exchange adventures. We started our journey with a bang in the Costa Rican jungle, where we lived with a lovely family, nurturing regenerative farming techniques and day to day animal/labor/quality of life tasks. We had plans to take our regenerative farming techniques back to Canada, and worked on an organic farm for a year.. This didn't go as planned, as the farm was mainly for profit, but we still gained valuable food production experience. When back in our home country, we spend most of our time assisting our family with as many things as we can, our latest projects are a total roof overhaul including: torching tar, stripping shingles, drafting and constructing a sustainable roof with water flow prevention techniques.
We volunteered in Haida Gwaii BC as well where we learned animal care such as milking goats, looking after many chicken and ducks and delivering goat babies! We learned much more in this experience involving bread and jam making, wine making, cheese making, basic construction, and overall farm maintenance on a busy farm!
