Description
We are a young couple from California who get a great deal of joy and enthusiasm from being outdoors together! We're not a sit-at-home or stay-still duo, in our day-to-day life we're always moving or working on projects, and we're looking for new projects in new places to apply ourselves to. Emily (24) is an aspiring therapist and in her free time loves going on runs, hikes and especially baking and cooking. Hadley (24) is a recent Environmental Studies graduate and cares about all things natural, especially farm systems, food justice, biodiversity, and all animals and bugs. In their free time Hadley goes rock climbing, works on ecodocumentary and photography projects, and enjoys amateur herb gardening in their backyard. We love meeting new peoples and forging new connections, and would love to learn any new skills hosts have to offer!
