Description
Hey, we are Lisa & Joshua a couple from Vienna, Austria. We are looking for new opportunities & chances to support you with our volunteer work, broaden our horizon during our journey and to actively support your project with our skills and knowledge.
We love to build, plant and craft, are eager to learn new things and provide/share our knowledge with best perception and conscience. We both are most happy when outside in the sun able to enjoy nature, listening to good music and meeting locals just like other workawayers or foreigners. And for sure... being out on the road traveling to unkown places.
It is crucial to us, to preserve & protect nature and its surrounding environment and therefore contribute to a community, its natural (re)sources and serve this specific region. That said, we both been part in different voluntary projects like permaculture & climate change, refugee assistance (Syrian War) and just currently a farmstay in Vietnam.
If you feel like we both would be a good fit for you and your project, just hit us up (we're doing the same). We would love to hear from you soon and get in touch with you. :)
All the best,
Lisa & JoshuaInterests

What drives me the most is my own input to planet earth, especially how I can contribute for the better and/or being part art of something good. Something that makes a real change, starting from small things like how I go through daily life, to actually learn valuable skills and get the information to be part of a brighter and bigger future. Therefore I am trying to absorb peoples and the worlds teachings about being good to others, on how to treat the environment and ourselfs best ways. I try my best to pass on or teach all the good lessons/skills/experience I've learned to other people, because I am happy and eager to learn something from people and the community around me. Workaways and traveling in general is an amazing opportunity for me to broaden my perspective, own some new healthy skills and get in touch with all the matters at the region where I am.
