Description
Hello! We are Kauri and Ovi, travelers and adventurers.
Ovi is an energetic and social 6 year old. She loves to talk and play with new friends, dance, and explore new places (especially if there's water nearby).
I (Kauri/mom) also love to explore, especially if involves some hiking and climbing. I work remotely about 30 hours a week in accounting and marketing, with a bit of software testing thrown in for good measure. I like to cook/bake, play music, and learn new things. Lately I've been (re)learning yoga, and focusing a more on taking care of my physical and mental wellbeing
We've done a few Workaways now, and our favorite times are when there have been other volunteers to join in the fun! We loved volunteering in a hostel reception, working with other volunteers to dig holes for an art project, and being welcomed into new families.
We look forward to meeting even more new people. Talk to you soon!

What else ...
I really value the sense of community I have felt during workaway stays. I have been working more hours lately, making it harder to balance working with volunteering 4-5 hours a day, but I still love the idea of participating in workaway projects and communities. I am interested in the idea of pitching in a bit monetarily and volunteering fewer hours.
And, as always, there's a huge bonus if there are other kids around for Ovi to play with, or a good amount of nature she can run wild in.
