Description
Hey! Our names are Millie and Izzy, we met at our rowing club and became friends 4 years ago. Over the years of rowing together we discovered we both not only had a love for being outdoors but also a love for adventure and travelling.
We hope to experience different cultures and help people all over the world. We would also love to learn some basics in the language you speak to be able to better communicate with you and those in the area. -
