Hi there, we are so excited to have resumed a life of travel. Rob is a teacher and Linda a nurse.

We enjoy gardening, camping, hiking, are experienced in Airbnb management, house and pet sitting. We are also qualified to teach English. We're happy to put our hands to any new skills, and share ours. By the way Rob is a great cook!
We are fully vaccinated (Covid and Flu) Non smokers. Clean manual driving licences. We both have a Working with Children card and Police Check.
