Description

Hello!

We're Nora & Taylor, two friends brought together by a shared passion for wildlife and conservation. Our journey began in Kruger National Park, South Africa, where we both volunteered for two months in wildlife conservation. Bonded by the experiences and the desire to make a positive impact, we now embark on a new adventure as a dynamic duo.

Individually, I am, Nora, an enthusiastic traveler with a diverse background. I spent four years in London, where I completed my university studies in Music Business and Arts Management. Professionally, I worked for EY as a Brand, Marketing, and Communication Specialist. My journey has taken me to the US, various European countries, and, notably, to Kruger National Park in South Africa for two months of wildlife conservation.

Back in Budapest, I organized two tree planting events to contribute to a greener city as part of my commitment to sustainability projects. Outside of my adventures, I have always had a soft spot for animals, and have been fortunate to share my life with furry companions.

On a personal note, I am very social, love connecting with people, and find joy in embracing life's experiences. Now, as I join the Workaway community, I bring not only a wealth of experiences but also a positive attitude, a love for nature and animals, and a genuine passion for connecting with diverse cultures.



I'm Taylor, with a passion for exploration, I delved into two months of wildlife conservation in Kruger, immersing myself in the wonders of nature. Following that, I embarked on a two-month African escapade through Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe , camping in the vast desert and falling in love with the diverse landscapes.

My journey continued in Asia, where I spent two months in the heart of hostel life, working as a waitress and bartender. From crafting drinks to managing check-ins and embracing cleaning duties, I soaked up every moment of the vibrant atmosphere.

Back home, I've worn different hats - from a young age I've been a hobbyist breeder of pure bread poultry with great competition success. I've been working with dogs as a dog washer and dog sitter in a daycare being responsible for 50 plus dogs a day. I thrive in social settings and cherish the connections formed through shared experiences.

Packed with stories from around the world and a toolkit of varied skills, I'm here to make our shared journey just as exciting and enriching.


Whether it's helping on a farm, supporting community projects, or caring for animals, we are eager to contribute and immerse ourselves in new cultures. Let's share stories, make a difference, and create unforgettable experiences together! :)
