Description

Hi hi!
We are an adventurous and creative team, a pair who are very active and love to try new things.
Hi I'm Tanner!
I am an ex-collegiate athlete, and avid outdoorsman; I love to surf, rock climb, hike, and generally be outside. I do have a special place in my heart for the ocean and the forest, having grown up on the west coast of Canada. I am working towards publishing my first poetry anthology, and am almost always reading something new.
In the past I have worked in a huge variety of jobs, and have found success in just about all of them. From City Lifeguard to Michelin guide-level bartender, retail, food service, and golf course maintenance all make appearances on my resume. At each of these jobs, I have broken records for the amount of positive reviews that an employee has received. I've also done a fair bit of volunteering, primarily running first aid stations at triathlons and regattas.
I am an avid traveler, but this is far and away the longest trip I've undertaken, and I cannot wait to include you into it!
Hi, I'm Kieran!
I am obsessed with the outdoors. I am into extreme sports such as whitewater kayaking, multiday hiking, rock climbing, and I have a bit of the circus running in my blood. I love plants and have spent the last 6 years studying horticulture while landscaping on the west coast of Canada in rain and snow (often at the same time). I previously worked as a raft guide in Canada before that and I worked well with clients and in high stress situations. I enjoy being outside in all weather and am excited for the new challenges that I may face in Australia. I am an animal lover whether it be dogs or snakes, and I don't mind getting dirty. I love to have fun and work hard.
My partner and I have travelled to Australia in order to explore this beautiful country, and to have a variety of new experiences. We're hoping to travel the majority of the coast, and go home with more than a handful of good stories.
We're willing to try anything twice!

More details about your skills

Between the two of us, there isn't a lot we are unable to do!
We are both very skilled at manual labor, with one of us having a red seal certificate in horticulture. We are both also very experiences in adventure tourism, both as clients and as guides. We are both also very skilled at guest and client relations, possessing high level interpersonal skills, and the ability to deescalate and upsell being hardwired into us. On the inverse, should the job require it, we are both also able to work apart from people for extended periods of time with some previous employment experience lending itself to that style of work. We both have groundskeeping experience, cleaning experience, farmhand experience, hospitality experience management and supervisory experience, and are both trained and versed in man y different styles of first-aid. Between the skills we have, and our ability to learn and understand new tasks quickly, you would be hard pressed to find a job we would be unable to undertake.
