Description

Hello there, we are Nick and Rachel! We are both from Singapore and have left our homes to discover how being in different places enable the wholeness of ourselves to flourish and grow :) We are introspective, curious individuals who enjoy the human experience of connecting with others and receiving everything that comes our way with openness and love.

For work, Nick does coaching and facilitation while Rachel is active in climate and social activism. Having a deep connection with nature, the outdoors and ourselves is something important to us that we share. We know that being welcome into spaces that are important to you like your homes and projects that you have dedicated your life to building is a huge honour that we take seriously. When we enter these spaces, we are eager, keen and adaptable team players who are reliable, accountable and commit to communicating our responsibilities and needs clearly and actively. We look forward to getting to know your stories and journeys, and supporting your work that builds a better world for us all.

Both Nick and Rachel have past experiences in Workaways in different places around the world, helping out with a range of tasks. Rachel has done engagements in the Netherlands and Taiwan, for instance helping a family animal therapy farm with gardening, cleaning, painting and feeding as well as building up an organic farm and retreat centre in its early stages, doing massive weeding and clean-up tasks. We are humble to learn and willing to work around the needs of our hosts and peers for a fulfilling and supportive experience for all.

More details about your skills

We are very hard workers, open-minded and willing to learn and try new things :) We have experience travelling relatively rough and low-budget, being in new environments and enjoying adapting to changes (and experiencing the joy of it all!)

In our past workaway/ WWOOFing/ farming experiences, we have helped do cleaning, maintenance, painting and refurbishing, weeding, harvesting and packing, composting, basic building with cementing, housekeeping work, washing dishes. One memorable workaway experience was helping a host put up his local tea tour experience onto online platforms to expand reach to other travellers!
