Description
Hello Everyone! :)
We are two outgoing and enthusiastic university students from Edinburgh with a deep passion for travel, cultural exchange, and community work. Between the two of us, we’ve explored 38 countries and intend on visiting many more!
I’m from Malaysia and moved to Edinburgh for my studies, while my girlfriend is half Thai, half Scottish—born in Monaco, raised in Dubai, and now also studying in Edinburgh. We are both used to and thrive in multicultural environments, love connecting with people from all walks of life, and enjoy contributing to local communities. 🌻
We’re great with children! I've had the opportunity to work at my brother's swimming coach company for malaysian youth. Vanessa has had experience in coaching young ski groups in Switzerland, as well as building primary school children's comprehensive and reading skills in English!
We love all sorts of animals, my father owns a vetenary clinic so i've had first hand experience taking lots of care with various different animals, as well as spending a lot of time volunteering in local goat firms!
We also enjoy staying active through outdoor activities and water sports - whether it be hiking in the meditteranean or snorkelling in the Great Barrier Reef! Cooking and baking are also especially big passions of ours, and we’re always excited to share and learn new recipes!
Thank you for taking your time to engage and visit our profile,
Ryan and Vanessa 😊
