Turkey - from Apr 2025 until Oct 2025 View allDescription
Hi! We are a couple from Australia who love travelling, hiking, camping, animals, reading, art projects. Don't be misled by our age, we are super fit, and hard workers. Last year we trekked 17 days in the Himalayas carrying full packs. This year...the Lycian Trail! We love good food, good music and good friends. We hope to make all 3 this year on Workaway.
