Description
Hi! We are Emma (30) and Ties (29), two outdoor and nature lovers from the Netherlands. We are travelling and working in South America for some months, starting in Patagonia (since January 2026).
We both worked for environmental NGO's in Europe. Everything to do with nature fascinates us. We are fanatic bird watchers and wildlife enthusiasts, so we are really interested in areas that have a lot of native wildlife.
It's our dream to one day start our own project. During our trip we hope to gain new skills, explore different ideas and be inspired. We are very eager to learn more about the different aspects of running conservation projects and living self-sufficiently.
We are hard working, motivated to make our contribution to a project and we like to take responsibility. But we also like to have fun, play games, drink a beer or a wine (or two), make pizza's, share travel stories and life-experiences. We both like cooking and making bread, always happy to share some recipes!
