Description
Hi there we're a family of 4 from England, husband and wife Rob and Katie and our 2 boys aged 7 and 11.
We are at the beginning of a round the world adventure to learn new skills, meet new people, make new friends and open our minds to new experiences.
We love to grow our own food and Rob is a very experienced horticulturalist most recently working at an organic market garden. Katie is a nurse with a passion for cooking from scratch using her own produce. We both enjoy DIY projects and have renovated a number of houses. We love animals and have experience with keeping sheep, geese and chickens and dogs.
The purpose of our trip is to show our boys that life is for living, to give them confidence to step out of their comfort zone and gain skills and experience that you can't get in the classroom.
Rob volunteers as a marshall at a local race circuit and we have both previously volunteered for our local town 'in bloom' group.
