Description
Hello potential hosts!
We are Sarah and Maria, 2 travelling science graduates with experience teaching English, Science and Maths and working with individuals with learning disabilities.
We can teach, we can cook, we're great with kids and animals, and we're really enthusiastic to learn new things.
We love games, music, dancing and making things. We'd love to exchange skills, music, recipes and dance moves with you!
Our main goal in doing workaway is to truly experience different cultures and lifestyles and learn new skills.
We are pretty handy at DIY but would especially love the chance to learn more about building, engineering and mechanics. We're fit, strong and determined and love to get stuck in to some good hard manual labour!
We are low maintenance volunteers and like to live simply. We prefer it when there are set work/play times, and find this helps us interact with you as a friend as well as a boss.
It's your home! It's your rules! We appreciate a workaway is not just a holiday and will treat your hospitality with the respect it deserves.
We are hard working, kind and respectful people and we hope that together we can do great things ❤
