Description

We are 2 friends looking to travel with a purpose and are really excited to do a workaway exchange and experience a new way of living and working!
As people we are both open minded, fast learners and hard working. We looking for an opportunity to learn some new skills and spend time outdoors. Also, we are really interested in meeting some new friends or joining a family/collaborative project.

Hi, I'm Izzy, I'm 19 years old and I'm from Bristol in the UK.
I am interested in sustainable living and ways of life that are more connected to nature. I am a creative person in general and am interested in music, DIY, handicrafts, art, interior design as well as gardening/rewilding, renovating, construction etc. I always enjoy spending time outdoors (sometimes quite hard when you live in a city)! I also enjoy doing yoga and looking after animals.

Hi I'm Indi, I'm 20 years old and having just finished an art foundation and I'm ready for some new travelling experiences! I live on a boat on the river avon in the UK and am a big fan of nature, the outdoors, sustainable living, animals, DIY, music, culture etc. I speak English mainly but also speak a bit of Spanish. I am really interested in making jewellery and clothes, anything creative and artistic, tattoo design.

More details about your skills

Izzy - I have done volunteer work with a permaculture organisation at Shambala festival, where I helped them build grass huts, set up tents/spaces for workshops, painted signs and decorations, went foraging, helped with cooking for a big group of people and worked on the bar.
I am a confident cook and good at improvising meals with little ingredients, I also love communal cooking! I used to work as a cleaner so I have good knowledge of that too. I am confident with caring for domestic animals like cats and dogs as I have a dog at home.
I play guitar and piano also a singer/songwriter. I am skilled at crochet and have made a lot of different things now, lots of clothes, accesories, cushions etc. I can speak some Spanish but I would really love to improve my Spanish speaking some more.

Indi- I volunteer at Glastonbury festival every year by making an interactive 3D art piece in the Green Futures field, last year I made a Cheschire cat that disappeared and reappeared with LED lights, the year before I made a manequin that squirted a water gun when you walked past it. The team I work with has a large solar powered flower which is amazing!
I love facepainting and designing tattoos, and I also make my own clothes mostly out of upcycled materials, such as legwarmers, corsets, jumpers etc.
I make my own music, mainly guitar and singing but I can also play the saxophone and the piano and know how to use garageband and logic pro.
I am interested in circus skills, I am adept in firestaff and firepuoi and would love to teach these skills and also learn new ones like silks etc.
I used to do the lighting for a stage at Small World festival.
I used to work at a vegan cafe and am an avid fan of vegetarian and vegan cooking, i love to make tofu based dishes, halloumi salad, Morroccan chickpea soup, peanut butternut squash soup, kimchi cheese toasties etc,
