Description
Hello, we are Danelle and Alex. We’re 30 and 31 years old from New Zealand. We love the outdoors and spend our free time tramping, skiing, surfing, or road-tripping around.

We enjoy meeting new people and discovering new places. We have Workaway experience in Scotland and Italy, and we’ve also done some WOOFing in Colorado on a permaculture farm.

We have experience with farm work as Alex grew up on a dry stock farm here in NZ. We’ve worked on various gardening projects and tried our hand at renovations during our Workaway in Scotland. We’re fast learners and eager to dive into any kind of job. Danelle’s parents own a blueberry orchard, and she has worked a wine harvest at a family-owned organic vineyard here in NZ. We like to work hard, embrace challenges, and love learning about the places we travel through, so we’re looking for a relaxed and social experience to go alongside our work.

Alex runs his own digital marketing company and will be working while we travel, and Danelle is studying interior design online.

We have had some amazing Workaway experiences so far and look forward to adding more as we travel both locally and abroad.

I am sorry that my level of English is not very high because I think we could have exchanged many more opinions.

I spent a month with Rita and Baha and their wonderful little family in Modena and had such a lovely experience getting to know them both and getting to know Zahra and Dominico.

We loved every minute of our stay with Simon and Eileen. They kindly took us on for three months during the lockdown in Scotland and although the village was shut during our stay we had lots of fun working on the many projects in the law building with Simon and helping in the garden. Simon and Eileen both have great stories and really helped us… read more
