  • Description

    Hello! We're a couple from Brighton who took the plunge to quit our jobs and see the world for a year. Natasha spent a decade working in marketing and customer strategy in London, and Nell has been teaching English as a foreign language at EF in Brighton and LILA in Liverpool for about 2.5 years (CELTA qualified).

    Nell is an excellent cook, very creative with an excellent sense of humour. She is studying UX Design at the moment so could lend a hand with anything digital. Natasha loves a bit of DIY (started a small instagram account @journeytobrightonpalace documenting renovating her first flat), is a pianist and can help with any type of digital marketing. She also recently completed a 10-week evening course in filmmaking so could help on that front too.

    We also love children, animals and any kind of new adventure really, so we're happy to pitch in wherever we can. Looking forward to meeting you!
