  • Description

    We’re a couple who met in Mostar, Bosnia, fell in love, and a month ago decided to pack our bags and start traveling together. We’re both big on adventure, mindfulness, creativity, and meeting new people — plus, we love a good laugh, a boogie, and making memories wherever we go.

    I’m Niusha — Iranian, raised in New Zealand, and now living in Sydney. Growing up between cultures gave me a deep love for diversity and exploring different ways of life. I’m passionate about food (always excited to try new flavors!), movement, and mindfulness. I’ve worked as a childcare educator, hosted creative workshops like screen printing for disadvantaged youth, and love bringing people together in playful, meaningful ways.

    Faruk is 25, born and raised in Mostar. He’s the laid-back, hands-on one — super creative, active, and musical. He picked up the guitar a year ago and now loves to jam whenever he can. Back in Bosnia, he helped out on his family’s farm, so he’s experienced with plants, growing crops, and working outdoors. Basically, he’s happiest when he’s using his hands and staying active.

    Together, we’re social, hardworking, and always up for trying something new. Whether it’s helping on a farm, cooking up a feast, sharing some tunes, or just having a laugh with new friends, we bring good energy and open hearts to whatever we do.

    ✨ Can’t wait to meet you, share some laughs, and see where the journey takes us! ✨

  • More details about your skills

    I grew up with my hands busy, helping my dad in his mechanic shop, changing tyres, test driving cars, and sneaking in as much play as I could. Sport was a big part of my life—skiing, snowboarding, anything that got me outside and moving. That love for the outdoors has stayed with me. Now, I find peace in the mountains, under the snow, or by the water, scuba diving and exploring the quiet world below.

    Life has taken me in so many directions. I’ve worked in beauty therapy, spent time as a childcare educator (kids and their endless curiosity always make me smile), run screen printing workshops for disadvantaged youth, and now I work as an events director, keeping the wheels turning with a mix of organisation, logistics and quick problem-solving. Whatever I do, I’m happiest when I’m creating something out of nothing, It’s just who I am - Fixing up old furniture, sewing clothes, inventing new dishes in the kitchen. When the production kitchen at work needed a full paint job after being overrun with roaches, I grabbed a brush and got it done myself. I don’t mind getting stuck in, in fact, I enjoy it.
