Description
Hey everybody!
We’re Sam (32, from England) and Nadja (26, from Germany). 😊
We’re a couple who loves exploring the world and connecting with people from different cultures—whether through shared work, daily life, or long conversations over tea. For us, the real magic of travel happens when we spend time with locals rather than just passing through the usual sights. Those deeper encounters give us a chance to understand new ways of living and exchange stories that stay with us.
Most recently, we spent two years in Australia. For six months (Sam stayed for 1 year in total) we lived and worked on a station in the Kimberley region of Western Australia—Sam as the assistant manager and Nadja as the housekeeping supervisor. Being in the outback for so long was unforgettable; we’re both happiest close to nature, and our curiosity about animals and plants only grew stronger there.
After the season ended, we travelled down the west coast, spending our days by the sea, snorkelling, and discovering Australia’s incredible underwater world. Once we wrapped up that chapter, we visited our families in England and Germany, and now we’re excited to plan our next adventure. This time, we’re hoping to explore Southeast Asia. We’re completely open when it comes to the exact destination—we’re more interested in meaningful experiences and wonderful hosts than in sticking to a strict route.
We’d love to hear from you if you feel we’d be a good fit. We’re especially interested in work with animals, NGOs, and community projects. We’ve already had great experiences with Workaway hosts, including families, and we’re eager to continue contributing, learning, and connecting.
Looking forward to meeting you! 🌿✨

What else ...
We are both really open people who travelled to many different countries. Our goal is not only to see the country but also to connect with the people who live there and learn from them. This is why we decided after travelling for over two months through Australia to offer our workforce on workaway and hopefully find a nice stay and new friends :)
