    Mike:

    I spend a lot of time in the woods, professionally and during my free time. I'm passionate about wildlife tracking and long trips in the wilderness. I can help with creating or maintaining trails, spotting animals, driving 4WD and general work in the camp. I've traveled the world during my time as a sailor, hitchhiked on four continents and explored untrodden regions during long survival trips.

    I can help with daily maintenance, building, drive any vehicle, organize tours, trips and take groups for overnight camping. Also, I can train your crew or guests in first aid or survival stuff. I just get things done!

    - Certified Paramedic and first aid trainer
    - Licensed Forest Guide

    - 4x4 offroad driver (11 years of experience)
    - Scuba diver (OWD SSI)

    Julia:

    Hi! I'm an attorney-at-law by my diploma, a nature lover and a free spirit by heart. I’m also both, an animal and a people person. You can easily find me in fields looking for moose and wild pigs as well as on the dancefloor dancing kizomba and cuban salsa with people around the world :)

    - Great organizational skills, office managing, management, etc. – as a lawyer with more than 5 years of experience I am able to make any environment work like clockwork (project and office management).
    - I can organize and run things in your hostel. Easy, been there done that;
    - English proficiency and ability to teach (I have also been working as a Polish-English translator and interpreter),
    - Excellent computer skills, social media, Excel, etc.,
    - Devoted hitchhiker, admin of hitchhiking group in Poland gathering more than 50k people!
    - Survival skills (cooking anything from nothing, pitching a tent, sleeping anywhere, starting a fire, you say it – I do it),
    - Gardening and other farm-related activities (my family used to have sheep, goats, hens, we harvested wheat etc.),
