Travelling
Description
We are a couple based in Manchester UK who like to travel whenever we have the time, our favourite things about travelling are meeting people, immersing ourselves in new cultures and trying local cuisines. Where possible, we try to travel slowly and sustainably.
Niki is a multi-disciplinary artist who enjoys collaborating with communities. She is a trained Shinrin Yoku (forest bathing) leader and often combines this with art to create projects / walks / events for healing. Niki works with galleries in the UK on events and exhibitions and has taken part in international artist residencies in Spain, China, Mexico and Australia. I often work with young people on education projects exploring environmental care through the arts.
Jonny is a music producer who works remotely with international clients, he also runs his own record label, Cosmoba. Jonny is skilled in electronic music production and makes social media content for music organisations, he is happy to share these skills. He is also pretty handy after spending several years working on renovating our home.
We both have a love of the natural world and enjoy spending time outside, hiking and cycling. They are both interested in language exchange, Jonny has a very good level of Spanish and Niki is hoping to improve through travelling.
