Description
We are Mark and Juliette, from Europe :)
Mark is 33 and Irish and Juliette is 26 and French.
We met in 5 years ago in Ireland when Juliette was an AuPair.
We lived and worked in Ireland, travelled in Scotland, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Sydney, New Zealand, Canada, Mexico... and we are and will be still on the road!
We spent a year in New Zealand (March 2023-April 2024) on Working Holiday Visas and we loved it! We worked in restaurants, hotels, cafes to be able to hike and discover as much as we could of the country. We also spent 2 months in a van which was a magical experience!
We then reproduced the experience in Canada for 1.5 years and we are now heading for... Australia!
