  • Description

    We are a couple of musicians/singers/composers and jacks of all trades leading a semi nomadic lifestyle.

    We both have a lot of experience in agriculture and permaculture, including years of WWOOFing, studies in agroecology, and owning and managing a farm.

    Rebecca is a skilled cook and caterer, excelling in improvising with whatever is to hand. She is also a yoga teacher, bodyworker and holistic therapist.

    Steven is a skilled carpenter and handiman, as well as a beekeeper, sound engineer, part time stay at home dad, and ex truck driver.

    We are looking for exchanges for 3-4 weeks, where we can put our skills to good use, and in a natural environment where we can park our vans (in which we live). We can each offer up to 16 hours of work a week, as we also work remotely.

    We love learning new skills and sharing our own!
