Description
Hello!

Were Alexandra and Tom!

After connecting in New Zealand we decided to start a journey together and travel across the globe. Currently in Australia with plans to make our way to Africa.

Our goal is to raise awareness to support social challenges and volunteer our time to communities and initiatives that involve both nature and the people. Especially youth!

Alexandra has a background in horticulture and has been travelling the world as an artist for the last few years. She has experience working with kids, animals and nature across the globe and is dedicated to spreading light and love through her artwork and music.

Tom is an Ecologist and communication strategist that enjoys bringing education, compassion and light into the lives of others. He has a deep love for nature and community and is dedicated to making a positive impact on the world.

We run a simple social enterprise called ArtAgape that raises awareness and funds for social and environmental projects. With humble hands and the power of creativity we hope to bridge the gap and support communities in need as we travel.

We like to keep it simple and wholesome and do the best we can to help. With open hearts we hold space and listen to the needs of others so we can serve in the best way possible.

If this resonate with you please reach out! We look forward to connecting and sharing experiences together.

Alexandra and Tom were fantastic workers, eager and energetic. We were gifted a beautiful mural which they completed during their stay. Easy-going, great communicators and a knowhow can do attitude.

We stayed for 2 weeks and it still didn't feel long enough. It was a lovely space nestled in nature with a view of the ocean. The work was fair and enjoyable and we even had the opportunity to paint a mural at the Rosewood house.

This place is a magical mountain oasis. Its full of life and creativity, gardens and animals and most importantly, beautiful people. Its a home away from home. Always something to be done and lots to see. I spent almost 2 months on the mountain and by the time I left I felt truly part of the family. I hope I will be back to visit again soon, but… read more

Without a doubt one of the most capable, loving and hardworking people I have had the pleasure to meet - if she'd let us, we would adopt her!

Where to start.... Alexandra stayed for three months. Took over the running of the place, my life, the jobs...lol, stole my dog, tuned into all the animals... This is no ordinary lady. A ferocious worker, a very mature person for their mid twenties, well educated and travelled. A real friend and reliable person to share the place with. The… read more

Deidre’s place was beautiful and welcoming. Lots to do and and lots to see as well. A lovely place to reconnect with nature, especially with the ocean not far away. Deidre was great, she taught me a lot about plants and gardening and communicated expectations very well! I would definitely recommend this place.
