Description

Hey there!

We are Grady (31) and Erica (29) from Wisconsin, USA. We will be spending time in Australia and New Zealand from October 2025 until March 2026. We are looking for Workaways that are a good fit for everyone involved. We enjoy nature, cooking, conversation, and keeping a tidy space. We enjoy working and exercise, and spend a lot of time with friends and family. Grady is a trained sourdough baker and also skilled at handiwork and building, Erica is skilled at sewing and organizing, and we both love being outdoors and gardening.

We live an active life beyond our busy work schedules! This includes cooking fun meals for our many friends, baking bread and treats, spending time in nature (hiking, camping, fishing, swimming, etc), playing and watching sports (tennis, soccer/football, volleyball), and pursuing creative outlets. We love our two cats back home and love getting to meet other animals too! Family and friends are super important to us, and we are excited to make new connections while we travel in Australia!
