Description

Hello! We are Ainara and Alberto, a multicultural couple that has been in WA (Australia) for the past few months after completing our uni studies, and are bound to start our new adventure.

We are eager for new learning experiences, putting our skills and knowledge to use while also providing our help with whatever needs be!

Ainara comes from a mixed family (French, German, Spanish) that has lived all over the world, mostly in Asia and Europe. After spending 3 years sailing and travelling around the Pacific on a sailing boat with her family, she developed a passion for the environment and the ocean which is why she has spent the last 4 years working in the field of marine conservation and ecology.

Alberto is from Portugal with roots from Cabo Verde. Car enthusiast and tech nerd, he loves all kinds of sports (namely basketball and football), having a great time with people and passionate to understand how things work.

We are hands on people, motivated to work hard and ready to spread good energy and sense of humor along the way. We love meeting new people, learning about new cultures and places, and can't wait to meet and share bonding moments with our new hosts! :D
