Description
Hello everyone =D
We found each other in 2014 at the university and Polly was a hero to Bruno once she was the responsible for helping him with calculus. Two biologists who were bonded by the stress of learning mathematics!
We’re a great team! We’ve worked together while volunteering at a hostel in Pucón-Chile and later in Chilean Patagonia doing farming activities (in 2018 and 2019). During pandemic we completed our Master's degree in Sciences while working in a burger restaurant to get some extra cash. The goal was to come to Canada for new adventures, and we managed to do that. We landed in Vancouver in December 2022.
We are currently living in Metro Vancouver area. Bruno works in a hospital as a Research Technician and Polly works in an office with operations and customer service. We both have open work permit and we wouldn't need any sponsorship. We are both tired of the big city lifestyle and we feel more than ready to work & live in a calmer, beautiful place.
We love cooking (some brazilian specials dishes!), playing cards, having a good wine while having a good chat. We are easy going and make friends easily! We also like to explore around, hiking, camping and getting to know new places and people!
We are open to help you in any activities you need! We have experience with customer service, reception, serving, kitchen activities, administrative work, and farming.
Cheers,
Polly and Bruno
