Description
Hey, we are couple from Prague, Czech republic. We both love animals, travelling, discovering new cultures, and meeting interesting people. Throughout our studies and zears after we did several journeys (Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Thailand and manz countries in Europe). Last year we decided to quit our jobs and move to New Zealand to experience freedom of vanlife. We got this amazing opportunity to travel as nomads, to temporarily work or volunteer at one place, meeting amazing people, discovering local culture and nearby nature. This way of slow-traveling is something we fallen in love with, and in ideal world we would like to travel the World in this way :)
Me, Barb, I studied law but I found out very quickly that sitting in the office and reading tons of papers is not the best thing for my type of personality. I like more hands on type of work, back there in Czechia I liked to take care of flowers, spending time with animals :), making all sorts of decorations, baking, hiking and exercising yoga.
Me, Jan, I'm very curious - I'm interested almost in everything, from history through technology and business to people and the world in general - and energetic, hard working type of person. I am kind of restless, I love to move all the time, or somehow occupy my curiosity ( ... and I love to play chess :))
