We are new to Workaway and excited about even more opportunaties!
Since last summer we are in Canada on a working holiday basis. After almost a year of Vancouver city life we are now excited to add a few Workaway experiences here in Canada. After that we will travel to Peru for almost three months and we can‘t wait!
