Nature loving couple living in Norfolk, UK looking to leave their egos at home and experience the true natures of the world, whilst learning and growing along the way.
By trade we are a creative-duo, with 16 years of skills in Art Direction, Creative Strategy, Brand Identity, Photography and Marketing.
We use our skills to promote happiness and raise awareness for important charities, trusts, reserves and independent brands across the globe.
We spend a lot of our time taking photos of our natural surroundings, our cameras are always with us.
We love adventuring outside of our comfort zones to try new things and we absolutely love the sea.
We have now had three volunteering experiences, we loved the places and people so much that we have chosen to continue dedicating our time to volunteering opportunities and helping biodiversity full time.
We are both vegan and love to cook, try and get creative with new dishes.
Our travels so far have given us the opportunity to learn a lot of new skills including woodwork, mosaicing, horticulture, preservation and more.
We spend a large amount of time developing our horticultural skills and our goal is to be completely self-sustainable.Interests
