  • Description

    Hi there,

    We came to travel Australia to meet like-minded people, deepen the outdoor experiences and enjoy life. I, Lea, have been living in different countries and after being in a beautiful city in Germany for five years it was time to get out again! I am traveling with my partner Pancho, that after finishing his training in Germany to be a professional glazier he is now working in that field in Byron Bay.
    Lea:
    I consider myself to be open minded, empathic and reliable. I enjoy being and working in good company as much as I enjoy to be alone and be in silence. I'm a passionate veggie cook that can enjoy being in kitchen for hours trying new recipes, I calm down doing yoga, listening to podcast having a nice walk, being with animals, being in nature or doing household and plant activities. I get inspired by good company and meeting new people from all kind. I worked a lot in youth orientation and with people and I have a passion to create a warm and welcoming feeling and support for people on their personal journey. My friends say about the time they spend with me, that it always feels like some kind of holiday where they can be themselves and slower life a bit. That's the kind of life I want to live!

    Pancho:
    In Chile I studied to become a Photographer and always loved the art side of life, when I came to Germany I decided to get more professional in the construction area, which I always enjoyed too. I learned how to work with glass and really like my profession. I am a energetic person that always wants to do/create something with my hands. If its playing an instrument, carving, constructing, doing a bonfire, or involving in diy projects recycling old stuff. I enjoy to meet new open minded people and travel around to see new places. I enjoy being close to the waters and around animals!

  • What else ...

    As we are traveling as a couple we still like to find our individual ways of seeking what we most need at the time, I would love to do the work and be around while my partner will have to travel to Byron Bay to work in his full time job. We found it to be a bit challenging to find a place and would love to find someone to be flexible with our individual situation. As being two but mainly one to help around (and the other one limited to weekends or afternoons) I would be happy to find a way comfortable to everyone.
