Travel information

We are currently

Activities we are interested in:

We are now living in Austria for winter and spring where we are working. In May we will be travelling Europe again and will be open to all kinds of workaways, especially those involving the outdoors

Description

We are a New Zealand couple (both named Jordan!) who have been together for 8 years. After completing our tertiary studies and gaining a few years of professional work experience, we are itching to spend a couple of years in Europe, particularly Italy. Workaway is the perfect platform for the kind of travel and experiences we are seeking.

Connecting with new people and immersing ourselves in other cultures is what makes us tick. Having grown up camping and exploring in New Zealand, we love adventuring and finding new experiences.

We enjoy DIY work and working outside, and love learning new skills and ways of doing things.

More details about your skills

We have both worked in office jobs for the past 6 years, but in the weekends we have many hobbies that translate into useful skills for Workaway experiences.

Jordan 1 (male) spends most of his time fixing up old vehicles, or helping his father with DIY projects and work around the house. He is capable using powertools and enjoys using his hands for all types of work. When he has finished travelling he would like to start a building job, so any work like this would be welcome. Jordan has also grown up helping his parents in the garden and enjoys the likes of planting, landscaping and harvesting produce.

He has also been volunteering at the SPCA for over 2 years so has experience caring for animals, mainly dogs and puppies.

Jordan 2 (female) spends her spare time sewing and doing small woodworking projects. Professionally, she has marketing and tourism management knowledge and is always happy to help in these areas. She loves cooking, learning new recipes and working with new ingredients. A recent passion project of hers was starting a veggie garden.

We are both always keen to learn new things and happy to get stuck in and help wherever needed.
