We are a couple going on a working holiday in New Zealand from February.

Description

My name is Hodaka and I am Japanese. I love traveling and meeting new people.
After working as a nursery teacher for three years in Japan, I worked as a receptionist in a dental clinic for two and a half years, saved money, and stayed in Australia for two years on a working holiday. During my working holiday, I did a farm job for 5 months and was an au pair for 10 months. It was not an easy job but a very valuable experience.
My hobbies are traveling and winter sports. I'm certified in Thai massage.
I have been to 23 countries so far.

My name is Masaki and I am Japanese. I love traveling and trying new things.
After graduating from the Automobile College with an automobile maintenance qualification, I worked as an automobile mechanic at Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. for one year, then changed jobs and worked for two years in sales.
From there, I traveled around Southeast Asia for about 3 months and visited 7 countries, which made me love traveling even more.
My hobbies are traveling, tennis, and the outdoors.
I have traveled to 24 countries so far.

We also worked at a local strawberry farm for about two weeks. I helped with plowing the fields and thinning the fields.

The two of us decided to go around the world together and have been working part-time at a hotel for two years, saving money, and we did travel around the world.

More details about your skills

I (Hodaka) used to work as a nursery teacher at a nursery school and was an au pair in Australia. I like playing with children. I used to do fruit packing and picking when I had a farm job in Australia.

I (Masaki) used to work as an auto mechanic, so I'm used to using tools. So, I can help with work such as DIY, and I myself am very interested.

We also worked as a receptionist, waitresses, and housekeepers at a hotel, so we can make beds and clean rooms.
