Description
Hi! My name is Josh and my girlfriend is Amelia. We are both living in London, and are both artists. I moved to the UK to do a masters degree but am originally from Alaska. I make film art and my girlfriend makes drawings and sculptures. I have worked a few different careers including as a chef for many years! Now I am pursuing art full time. Amelia was a teacher for several years and has worked with children ages 5-15, and now works in art administration. We both love to travel, to learn and exchange culture, and to see the world in different and engaging ways. I have been to over 40 countries all around the world, and many years ago I did workaway in some beautiful places such as Turkey, Thailand, Switzerland and Nepal. I have worked and volunteered many times on farms, including permaculture courses, natural building, and animal/livestock care. We both really love nature, love to read and cook, and love making art and photography. We are both really hardworking and love to opportunity to learn new skills and share some of ours. We are so excited to make new friends around the world.
