  • Description

    Hi everyone

    We're Gaynor and Tim, a married couple in our 50s from the UK.

    Recently retired from our day jobs, we're travelling the world for a couple of years while we're still young enough and healthy enough to have an amazing adventure.

    As well as seeing the world we'd love to meet new people, learn about different cultures, and while doing so it would be great to lend a hand using the skills we've honed over the years... or indeed, muck in and learn some new skills along the way.

    About us:
    Tim has been a tradesman since the 1990s. Over the years he's renovated dilapidated houses, reconfigured layouts, designed bathrooms and kitchens as well as enjoying some landscape gardening. Tim is skilled in a number of trades including building, plastering, tiling, painting, and joinery.

    Gaynor has had a career in marketing spanning almost 30 years. She's worked for local, national and international organisations. Gaynor is a qualified project manager and over the past few years has had an increased focus on content marketing.

    We both love animals - big, small, domestic and wild. We both love travelling, music and cooking. And Tim is a keen chess player.
