  • Description

    We are a couple in our late 30's from the south-west of England.

    Laura goes by the name Barr but Workaway likes real names.

    We took the plunge and quit our jobs to travel the Americas.

    Dom is/was a chef and Barr is/was a lawyer.

    Our adventure started in January in Mexico, what was only supposed to be a couple of weeks turned into seven weeks. We then moved on to Costa Rica for three weeks to meet some friends. After leaving our friends we bumbled around Nicaragua, journeyed through Honduras, explored Belize and are now getting to know Guatemala.

    It's been amazing and we are two very happy souls :)

    Having done a couple of Workaways we both enjoy the structure and satisfaction of working towards something whilst on location. Workaways bring variation and more people into our travel experience which is great!

    We are both chilled people and are happy to get stuck in with any task that is thrown our way.
