Travelling
Activities we are interested in:
We enjoy working with people on projects and in our free time surfing, hiking and being in nature. We like construction/maintenance projects and love to get involved in environmental projects.
Description
We are mature experienced travellers, a couple with German/Spanish and Australian heritage, and have been on the road for over 3 years. We are travelling Spain, Portugal and Australia in our self converted bespoke campervans. We enjoy hiking and surfing, and just doing our own thing while house sitting with Trustedhousesitters.com and meeting lovely people and great projects via workaway. We are a very practical couple coming from a farming background and have looked after and worked with a large variety of animals. We love creating, building and fixing, caring and maintaining. We have qualifications and experience with permaculture and organic farming and love the countryside and learning the local language and culture. We have done a number of construction and renovation projects on farms and houses. Michael has been a maintenance/handy man for the local school where he also worked as a Maths teacher. He was also the Patrol Captain at the local surf beach so loves the ocean. Susanna likes DIY and van conversion projects, woodwork and gardening, Yoga, and loves to surf. Her professional background is admin, hospitality and sales.
We are looking to contribute our skills and learn new ones as we continue travelling and experience meeting wonderful people and places.Interests
