Description
Jambo! We are Eidah and Ben from Kenya and Australia (take a guess who is from which country). We are so happy to meet you!
This is Eidah 's first time on Workaway. Ben has done workaway in Germany (Dürnau) last year on a permaculture farm in Germany for 4 months. This September to October we will be travelling together to Europe. It is the first time for Eidah to travel to Europe and you can't imagine how excited she is!!!!!
Eidah loves children and cooking (and the eating part, too). Eidah really wants to meet new people and see a completely different world that she has never seen before - she will get to see where mzungus come from in their native habitat :-). Oh, and she loves to dance.
Ben used to be a software engineer but has grown tired of that. Ben has experience in gardening, building, metalwork, woodwork - pretty much most things he has tried his hand at.Interests

I can do all kinds of chores - cleaning, cooking, gardening, looking after children. By profession I own and run a clothing shop in Kenya, so this Workaway thing is new to me. However, I am eager to learn new things and give it my best shot.
