  • Description

    We're a healthy, active and fit Australian couple in our sixties who usually live on the mid-north coast of NSW. Over the last 10 years we have lived on our sailing boat but are now land-based again. Our sailing has taken us around the world and we've also had the opportunity to work in different countries as well. We are now planning to travel by land, and we think that Workaway is an ideal way to meet people and learn about new places from the locals.

    Dave is a shipwright/boatbuilder and his skills and experience mean he can competently tackle most jobs. Patsy is a teacher of maths and English language and has also worked as Dave's offsider on small construction jobs. We're both hardworking and enjoy getting involved in projects.


    We enjoy good conversation, family life and meeting new people.
