Description
Hello from Bonnie Scotland!
We are Eilidh and Yaz, a couple in our 30s from Scotland who are coming to explore Canada in 2026.
We are friendly, open minded and hard working - in our day jobs we work for the national health service Eilidh as a pharmacist and Yaz in communications. We are taking some time away from our professions to meet new people, have new experiences and learn new skills.
We being a lot of practical skills to the table - including cooking, gardening and looking after animals. Yaz also plays guitar and Eilidh is a former champion Highland Dancer. We are both fit and active and can turn our hands to anything!
We're open to any kind of work - but would especially love to enjoy some outdoors work and sunshine. -

What else ...
Eilidh has keen interest in yoga and music . I am always happy to sit and have a chat about different music genres and recommend some good bands to anyone who will listen!
My favourite thing is speaking to others about their life experiences and what has brought them to the same place as myself. I have a good few stories to share too! -
