Description

Hola, we are a couple that enjoys random adventures, currently on a mission to explore Colombian culture and natural beauty and give back to the communities on our way.

I am Artemis, originally from Greece, I have spent the past 2 years moving around Europe, searching and engaging in different jobs, volunteering programs or projects. I mostly enjoy working with kids or young people and nature; the chance to combine both is what makes me truly happy. I like to learn random, different skills , I believe I am a fast learner and a good teacher. I love to cook, I can draw/ paint and take on creative projects. I like physical work and being part of a team or a community makes me feel safe and productive.

Hi! I’m Andrzej from Poland. I worked as an electrician’s assistant, so I’m confident with fixing small technical issues and practical tasks. I also spent two winters above the Arctic Circle in Scandinavia working as a dog sledding guide, leading groups of up to 50 people in challenging weather conditions.
I’m reliable, hardworking, and like to understand the purpose behind the tasks I do. In my free time I enjoy learning about nature, travelling, and following long-distance dog sled races. I’ve also volunteered at two major sled dog races — one in Norway and one in Sweden.
