Description
Hello. We are Rosie and Manu a Welsh and French couple, 33 and 32 respectively. I (Rosie) left for Asia and then Australia after graduating from university (Sociology degree) and Manu leaving cheffing in France behind to explore the world. We have been together for 11 years and met working on a farm in Australia. Since then we have travelled, volunteered and worked abroad on and off, using Wales as our main base. We have predominantly worked in farming in Australia/New Zealand and France, with a passion for organic and sustainable practices. We were both managers for two seasons on an organic fruit and vegetable farm in the Northern Territory Australia. We have also worked closely with animals, sheep scanning in rural central Otago, New Zealand and have volunteered in animal sanctuaries and rescues both at home and abroad. We love to travel and have been fortunate enough to meet, work and to truly integrate with the people that we meet and really experience their way of life. We have so much gratitude for the stories and adventures we have experienced together and for the friends we have made around the world, and we hope to continue this enriching way of living into the future.
