  • Description

    Welcome hosts, thanks for taking the time to have a look at our profile. We are a open minded, active and easy going couple. We enjoy being outside in nature, working with our hands, finding solutions and being creative. We like clear communication and can work as part of a team or independently with efficiency and motivation to complete jobs to the best possible standard.

    In our free time you can find us cycling, mountainbiking, swimming, hiking, surfing, climbing, cooking and eating good food, having interesting conversations, playing cards and doing a little bit of yoga and meditation. As much as possible we try to travel by my bicycle, or by hitchhiking because we enjoy interacting with people from all walks of life. We are on workaway because we want to help with exciting projects, learn about the different ways people are living and gain some new skills we can apply to our life.

    Please have a look at our skills below and check our feedback from previous hosts to get a better idea of who we are :)

  • More details about your skills

    PETER: I have learnt a of skills from the many different places I have volunteered and from my job back home. In New Zealand I worked as a Mountain Bike Instructor and Trail Builder. Some of my skills and experience include; operating a digger to build trails, use of chainsaw, leading a trail building crew, teaching mountain bike skills, teaching bicycle safety to school kids, being a bicycle mechanic, building wooden structures on trails and I even have experience picture framing at my father's business. I can safely opperate almost all power tools and am very comfortable working on building/wood working projects. I enjoy physical and creative work, landscaping, farming, etc. No job is too hard, and there is always a solution.

    SULTAN: As a person who grew up in a village, I am familiar with outside activities. I have some knowledge of gardening where I can help with planting, pruning, weeding and more. I do have some experience with small farm animals care as well. I have a great interest in cooking. I like to cook traditional Turkish food and I am very open to cook any international dishes you can ask. Also, I can help with any cleaning or tidying work you have. As I learnt from my earlier workaways and from my own experiences, I am talented with painting of furnutires and buildings too.
    Since I am still a student at a university, I might be useful with anything regarding your children's study and learning languages.


    We are motivated workers and keen to learn new skills. 🌸
