Description

Travelling has been a huge goal for us for some time; and we can’t wait to see what more we can discover in South East Asia!
We'll be setting off from Ireland to Thailand in November 2023 and will backpack our way around SEA, starting in Thailand.

We are both very hardworking people; we joined Workaway so that we could really learn about people and their lives more, whilst giving something in return.
It’s important for us that we learn and discover as much as we can, while still respecting local traditions and customs.

We enjoy meeting new people and immersing ourselves in local culture (especially local cuisine)! Never afraid to try something new, we’re making our way through South East Asia and would love to hear about any opportunities you have that you think might suit!
