Description

Hi! We are a British-Argentinian couple who are currently travelling in South America. We spent last summer working in a summer camp in the Romanian mountains for two months and are looking for some new experiences and to meet like-minded people. We tried our first WorkAway in Hungary and enjoyed the experience of helping at a permaculture project and want to try more new experiences. We have both spent much of the past two/three years working in different places - incuding Poland, the Netherlands and Spain - and hope we can use WorkAway to find even more opportunities for new experiences as we travel!

More details about your skills

Tom - My recent experiences are strongly related to teaching. I have worked in schools and summer camps with all ages, from 6 to retirees and with all abilities. I am also a very athletic person and capable of manual labour; I both train and coach athletics whilst also have experience in hockey, football and other sports. I enjoy photography and recently have started writing about my travel experiences, using skills I have picked up whilst working in social media marketing in another job.

Ailin - My recent experiences have been either working with children, either as an au pair (for three young boys in Poland) or volunteering in hostels which involved a lot of working with people and assisting in the every day running of the hostel. I am good with languages and I am fluent in Spanish (native) and English, can speak basic Polish, and some phrases in various other languages. I am a creative person who enjoys drawing, photography, and music. Finally, I love animals; I have a dog and a cat at home and I am a vegetarian.
