Description

What motivates us is the opportunity to learn and grow, and to make a positive impact in the world. We're happiest when we're able to connect with people and contribute to their communities in a meaningful way. We find joy in learning about new cultures, trying new foods, and exploring the natural beauty of our surroundings.

In this, an active lifestyle as well as a deep connection to nature are what we are looking for. We both are very keen to learn new skills that are completely out of our comfort zone.
