  • Description

    We are motivated by social connections and experiences. We love to learn about others, their experiences, culture and worldview. We also value physical experiences, and love to spend time in nature hiking, camping and off-roading.
    Both of us are surf life savers at home in Australia and compete in IRB racing - we thoroughly enjoy being out in the ocean and contributing to our community at the beach 😊

    Ruairi’s Skills
    I have years experience working on building sites for both builders and landscapers.
    I have a degree in Construction and Project Management, this means I have a wide skill set from building and site management to financials, scheduling and marketing.
    I have a strong grasp of the English language and I am able to help with tourism, hospitality and communications.
    I am equally as capable working with my hands as I am at communicating with written and spoken word.

    Sophie’s Skills:
    I have ~7 years of experience in hospitality through working in cafes, bars and bottle shops (liquor stores).

    I love flow arts (eg fire spinning) and have been practicing for ~2 years. My favourite prop is my dragon staff, but sadly it is too large to travel with, however I am travelling with fire poi, a rope dart and dapo star. I am open to small performances and would love to teach beginners 😊

    I also enjoy gardening and have many pot plants at home - I’d love to help out in the garden and learn more.

    At home, I work as a renewable energy engineer and as such have good communication and problem solving skills. I have a mechatronics engineering degree and a business degree 😊


    Both:
    - Surf life saving
    - Cooking
