Description
Hello! We are Michelle and David from the United States. We have taken a break from our lives back home to start traveling in April 2019. We hope to see as much of the world as we can, meet new people from each country, and learn about different cultures. We previously traveled through New Zealand as workawayers, using a website called HelpX, and we found that staying with different hosts and learning about different kinds of work were our most valued and memorable experiences.

More details about your skills
Together we have experience in the hospitality/customer service industry, and both have spent time caring for children and animals. Through Workaway and HelpX, we have spent time doing all kinds of things around the house, including indoor/outdoor painting, small home repairs, weeding, raking and other garden tasks, gathering and chopping wood, clearing branches, cleaning, cooking, picking fruit, preparing for events, moving furniture, and organizing barns/sheds. Of course we are happy to do any kind of work that you may need.
Age
35 & 38
What else ...
We both enjoy hiking and walking around/exploring new cities. We love all animals, but especially dogs. We are happy to help teach English, and have fun picking up new words in other languages. We can cook and would love to learn new recipes from different cultures. At 31 and 35 years old, we are mature, clean, quiet, and respectful, and will do our best at any task that is given to us!

We spent about 3 weeks and it was such a great experience! It has definitely been one of our favorite Workaways so far. Louise, Brian, and their boys are such a nice family, and we feel lucky to have spent the time that we did with them.

Michelle and David are a hilarious couple and made a great difference here in our community with their personalities. They did more than they are asked to do. They are awesome in conversation and our guests loved them and miss them already. Thank you for all your effort guys.

We ended up staying at this hostel for three weeks, and it was a great experience! This was mostly thanks to the amazing staff who we got to know and were very sad to leave at the end of our stay. Everyone that works at Mono Hostel is extremely kind, helpful, and nice to talk to. We learned a lot about Taiwanese culture while staying here. Work… read more
