Description
We are an easygoing, responsible couple comfortable with routine, shared spaces and daily help.
We think about traveling as a way of learning about other cultures and having our contribution in the places we visit no matter we are volunteering or we just walk and clean up around us. We just want to leave our small but positive footprint in the places we are visiting and we hope to find friends on that way. So Workaway gives us a chance to do it in a meaningful way. That's why we are here.

About Srap:
I’m a calm and practical person who enjoys learning and teaching. I like to work in garden and with animals as well. Im always happy to do some crafting and any hands-on job.
I have a long-term experience in software development and have taught Programming for several years, which makes me comfortable explaining things clearly and working patiently with others.
About Mariam:
I have experience on working as a Project Manager which help me to communicate with people productively and make things work.
I combined my high school studies with working as a bartender, which gave me many years of experience in hospitality and in organizing various events.
I love cooking, gardening and taking care of animals, I lived in village when I was young and we had big gardens and animals there, so I have experience in farming and gardening as well.
During my studies, I volunteered in Armenian villages organizing summer camps for children. These camps primarily were focused on psychological aspects such as personal development, emotional awareness, conflict management etc...
I'm not able to do things without passion and sense of responsibility.
