Description
We’re Rob (28) and Mariam (27), a couple living in Montreal who are all about outdoor adventures, good food, and meeting new people. We love hiking, trying new dishes, and listening to music from all over. We’re pretty easygoing, enjoy chatting with others, and are always curious to learn about different cultures and ways of life. We’re excited to travel, lend a hand wherever needed, and hopefully make some new friends along the way.

Mariam has a BA in psychology and has been working in childcare for the last 10 years and special education for the last 4 years. She has worked in schools, daycares, privately and in clinics as a behavioural therapist, and one on one in childcare. Her job requires high levels of organisation, time management, flexibility, and multi tasking, as well as care and attention to people's needs. Back in Pakistan, she grew up raising chickens and geese in her backyard. A very eager and quick learner, she is a highly adaptable and ambitious person who moved to Montreal, Canada, from Pakistan 8 years ago to pursue higher education and loved it so much she decided to stay.
