Description

Hello, We are 2 scousers both looking to get involved in some great opportunities to work away.

At home James is a builder with over 6 years experience in multiple areas of construction such as Joinery, Landscaping, Roofing, Tiling and Decorating. Traits such as punctuality, respect and a good bit of hard work are second nature now.
Out of work he enjoys spending most of his time outdoors wether it be out in the back garden trying and learning to build and grow his own plantation or making the most of the beautiful spots around the UK camping/walking with friends. Really enjoy a lot of sports and physical activities wether its Football, boxing, yoga and general gym work.
A firm believer in always trying to grow, learn and gain as much experience in life so, really excited to have learnt about workaway.

Ellie has worked in the hospitality industry for over 10 years, starting in her grandmothers pub to clubs, racecourses, hotels and festivals around the UK. Once she graduated from university Ellie worked full time in rehabs providing support for drug users. She then progressed onto the criminal justice sector and supported accommodations to rehouse high risk offenders. Ellie loves caring for animals (specifically dogs) and children as well as painting and decorating. In her spare time she enjoys reading, socialising and being around nature.

Workaway is the perfect opportunity to utilise time and be a part of something rewarding and enjoyable. We are both keen to visit and explore the culture and really get involved within communities. We have had previous experience working on a farm in Bulgaria with a WorkAway host. Our availability will be until 15th November as we prepare for our ski resort positions to commence.
