Description
Hi all,
We're Steve (M27) and Issy (F26), a couple based out of Sydney Australia looking to get involved in the workaway life while we travel throughout Europe.
Steve works in digital marketing across global brands specializing in search advertising. When he's not working the Google algorithm you can find him out and about rock climbing in the blue mountains or at the local bouldering Gym.
Issy is a professional jazz musician who makes a living through live music both at original gigs and weddings/ corporate events throughout the week. Beyond the stage, she's dedicated to nurturing the musical talents of the next generation of kids, teaching vocals, violin, flute, and piano.
Both of us share a deep love for nature and a special bond with animals. We have valuable experience caring for a diverse range of animals, as our own beloved pets are integral parts of our lives back home.
We're after more than just a place to stay, but for genuine connections and unforgettable experiences. We're excited to immerse ourselves in different cultures, lend a helping hand wherever it's needed, and make lasting memories along the way.

More details about your skills
Between the two of us, we have a diverse array of practical and online skills ready to be put to good use!
Steve - Growing up with a mechanical engineer dad instilled in Steve a hands-on approach to problem-solving. From assisting with household repairs to getting involved in a complete renovation project for his sister's home, Steve isn't afraid to get his hands dirty. Practical experience includes painting, drywall removal, and even brick demolition, making him great if you need help with any building or renovation project.
Issy - Prior to pursuing her passion for music professionally, Issy honed her customer service skills working in bars for many years so is familiar with all things customer service. Additionally, as a music tutor for children, Issy has a natural affinity for working with young children, fostering a nurturing and supportive learning environment.
Both of us share a deep love for animals, evidenced by our cherished pets at home. Our experience in pet care makes us adept at working with animals, whether it's providing love and attention or tending to their daily needs.
Together, we bring a wealth of practical expertise and interpersonal skills to the table, ready to tackle any challenge and make a positive impact wherever we go!

What else ...
In addition to our skills and experiences, we both love meeting new people and enjoy spending time with others. We're really excited to explore new cultures and learn new things as we travel. While we're open to various tasks, we especially enjoy caring for animals and would be thrilled to assist with any tasks related to their well-being. Lately, we've been getting into film photography and reading, discovering new ways to express ourselves and enjoy our free time.

We spent a total of 2 weeks living and working with them in June 2024 (but wish it was longer!) in combination with an awesome bunch of other volunteers from all over Europe. The accommodation itself was great - a room with multiple bunk… read more
