  • Description

    Hello hello!

    So myself and my partner Emily have decided to go for a bit of adventure . We are both extremely excited to finally be heading to NZ its been then plan for a while and in February we finally set sail WOOHOO! We are eager to learn new skills, have new experiences and see where it takes us

    A bit about us we both love nature and being outdoors , I grew up in a very active family that absolutely loved camping and hiking and my partner Emily has grown up on a farm in Cornwall, so she's very connected to the outdoors/nature like myself, Cornwall is known for its beautiful beaches and surfing(she's a swimming maniac)

    We are both extremely active with lots of energy, our favourite activities consist of cycling, hiking, paddle boarding, swimming and camping, I also hope to get back into climbing while i'm our there, lets see if i can persuade her too!

    We have both been working down in Cornwall for the past few years, I did my chef apprenticeship at the Pig in Harlyn Bay and my partner Emily took on a challenge to be a head chef in an opening restaurant, however we feel its time to try something new and see what the New Zealanders have on the menu.

    We are both trustworthy and positive people, very clean and organised, we cant wait to meet you!

  • More details about your skills

    I've worked at a range of different jobs over the years I'll give a quick list of the skills I feel I've learnt.

    I've worked as an outdoor activity instructor for year, I would oversee and look after groups of children, making sure they happy and having fun while also making sure they remain safe at all times. Doing activities such as archery, rock climbing, abseiling and many more. During the winter we would maintain and look after the grounds around the structures and through out the 120 acres of land.

    I've worked on a cruise ship as a photographer and sales person. Which greatly improved my communication skills as I became one of the top sellers within the team and ended up being in charge of sales and tutorials for my colleagues. As you are on board the cruise ship for months on end you really become more of a family with your team so having a positive attitude and good sense of humour really helped.

    My passion being photography and art most by skills are based around this area. I know how to retouch/edit images to a high standard. I've worked in a photo studio which helped me to learn to give good clear directions and be fast thinking and quick on my feet as well as good communicator. In my spare time I love to draw/paint and explore different mediums to create exciting and vibrant images.

    I know how to cook a wide range of dishes and I love to share my cooking with others.
