Description
Hello! We're Ida and Elizabeth, two best friends from Australia embarking on a gap year in 2025!
Ida has just finished her geographical science degree and Elizabeth is one and a half years away from finishing medical school and we've decided we desperately want to travel and see the world before getting tied down with full-time work.
We love the outdoors and are hoping to engage in some meaningful and sustainable volunteer work. We want to learn and experience different cultures and try our best to pick up some new language skills!

Ida is highly organised, a great cook, loves to hike and can talk about rock formations and volcanos all day! She previously volunteered with the Australian Wildlife Conservancy helping with habitat restoration in western New South Wales. Elizabeth loves to draw, read, go camping and is great at cleaning - especially when she should be studying instead! She previously volunteered as a local firefighter in her hometown.
We haven't done a work-a-way before, but are willing to try just about anything, though we would love to work outdoors!

We recently spent ten days with Kat and Kiljan at their acro church in Hettstedt and we had the best time! They were the most lovely people and we had a lot of fun together. We had autonomy to choose our working hours, and there was also a lot of variety in the work that we could do - anything from gardening to painting and cleaning.

Our days involved a morning stretching circle and check in, breakfast, and a few hours of work.

Elizabeth and Ida were an absolute pleasure to have with us during a moving and productive month.
