Description
Hi there! We’re Franzi and Erik, a German couple traveling New Zealand on a working holiday visa. I’m a primary school teacher, and Erik is a plumber—we’re both hard-working, friendly, and love new challenges.
We’re passionate about exploring, meeting people, and trying new things. Whether it’s hiking, solving escape rooms, or lending a hand, we enjoy making the most of every experience.
We’re new to Workaway but excited to contribute, learn, and create meaningful connections along the way!
