Description
Hey, we are Jason and Coby (New Zealand and Australia)
We plan on travelling throughout Alberta and BC starting from April 2021 until our working visas run out in October (Coby is applying for an extension to her visa).
We have both worked two winters on a ski hill in Fort McMurray doing a range of different outside jobs but mostly being ski/snowboard instructors and lift supervisors (checking lifts are functioning proper and organizing staff).
Jason comes from a farming background having worked many years across different sheep/beef and dairy farms.
Coby was a tennis coach before moving overseas.
We both enjoy being outdoors, physical activities and being around animals.
We have a truck and want to see as much of Canada as possible which is why we aren't keen on committing to a long term job. Always looking to meet new people and learn new skills.

Generally we were given a handful of tasks each morning and left to our own devices with how to get them done which was great as it got us to think and problem solve.
