Travelling
Our next destination:
Norway - from Jul 2025 until Jul 2026 View allDescription
We love to adventure and explore new places to learn new skills, ways of life and connect with others. We have both been working in New Zealand, where we were born and raised, so looking for a new adventure. We like to spend out time off going for adventures in the outdoors, making things (table, pottery etc) and connecting with friends and family.
Having both spent a few years of our childhood in different places (Hong Kong and Egypt), we have felt the value of travel bringing connection and new experiences. We are doing a working holiday this year in Norway and are excited for all that will bring.Interests
