Description
Our names are Jemima and Clara and we are two best friends who have recently graduated from Oxford Brookes University in the UK. We are both passionate about pursuing a balanced and healthy lifestyle and embracing natural foods and products, as well as physical activity such as gym, running, pilates, cycling, hiking, paddle boarding, horseriding and rowing! We gain fulfilment from socialising with friends and family as well as meeting and interacting with new people, hearing new stories and making new friends! We jump at any opportunity to explore new cultures and cuisine and expand our horizons! Hard work is no stranger to us, we thrive in fast paced and and highly physical environment and we find this extremely rewarding. We have both fallen in love with Greece - the people, the stunning natural sites, the food and the brilliant sense of community and atmosphere and are now seeking opportunities in July and August to work away in Greece as we are desperate to experience the culture again!
