  • Description

    Travelling the world is our dream. This dream is being fulfilled on bicycle, walking, and by vehicle. I put in 25 years working for the Government of Alberta, and Joyce is retired from her own business in the Netherlands.

    Now it's time to say hello to all the fantastic people we will meet while travelling. Working our way around the world allows us time to make deeper connections with hosts, as well as keeping our physical, mental, and emotional health in tune.

    We look forward to meeting you in the near future :)

    Ric & Joyce

    NOTE: Because we split our time up between Canada and the Netherlands we sometimes travel and workaway separately. We will always let you know in our message if we are looking for an opportunity either solo or as a couple.

  • More details about your skills

    We have experience in many areas from gardening, landscaping, operating machinery, Although I've worked for the Government of Alberta for the past 25 years, I also have experience as a Field Operator in Oil and Gas. We both love working outside and possess a Class 3 Driver's License with Q Endorsement (Air Brakes).

    We are capable of learning what's needed, and bring a strong work ethic and positive attitude to the table.

    We will only apply to hosts that we believe we can be of service to. If you receive a request from us it's because we read your profile thoroughly and feel we'd be a good fit for each other.

    55 & 53

  • What else ...

    We have so much to share with our hosts, their families, and locals. Too much to mention here. We both lived lived pretty dynamic lives so far with many adventures, experiences, and obstacles.

    We will bring a positive attitude, strong work ethics, and some laughter to wherever we end up. We plan for these work experiences to compliment some of our travels moving forward, so will occasionally make ourselves available for the right opportunity and fit.

    Can't wait to meet you :)
