Description
Kia Ora! George and I met at university studying Environmental Planning in Otago in New Zealand (25 and 26 years old). After a few years of working in seperate consultancies, we’re so excited to be out here travelling, with WH visas for Portugal. We love getting outdoors, hiking, surfing and cooking! Renee is a keen bikram yogi and George has been surfing for 15 years. We are not strict on being taken on together - please message if you have something that seems a great fit but only with space for 1 😊

More details about your skills
We both love getting stuck in with work. We’re physically fit (5’10 and 6’3 tall too) and up for almost anything! Renee has lots of experience cooking for groups of 20+, gardening, house painting, cleaning and looking after children (years of nannying).
George has experience with house building labour, large scale gardening and can drive manual (international license). He’s also been surfing for over a decade and is a great teacher!
We are both learning Portuguese and speak English. We’ve both recently left corporate jobs so have strong administration skills as well as hospitality experience.Age

What else ...
We are hoping to really immerse ourselves in Portugal! As we do both have working holiday visas, we’re flexible in how we can get involved and the duration of time we stay 😊
