  • Description

    Hello everyone!
    We are a Chilean couple living in Croatia since November 2024. We are driven by our love for connecting with people and exploring new places, which brings us great joy and fulfillment. Being in nature, spending time outdoors, practicing yoga, and rock climbing are some of our favorite activities.
    We are passionate about learning new things and find deep happiness in living simply and embracing a vegetarian lifestyle. Our love for animals and music is a big part of who we are — we are rarely without our guitar and egg shakers, always ready to share a melody.
    Our adventure companion, Kai, is a small, calm 5-year-old mixed-breed dog who is always by our side, joining us in all our travels and adventures. Her energy and enthusiasm perfectly match our love for discovery and connection.

  • More details about your skills

    We are a traveling couple, curious by nature and truly motivated by learning and sharing. We are inspired by simple living, close contact with nature, and experiences built through human connection, respect, and collaboration.

    Throughout the time we’ve spent traveling together, we’ve taken part in a wide variety of projects and roles: helping in the kitchen and with food preparation, housekeeping, gardening, outdoor work, guest support, and general help wherever it’s needed. We adapt easily, learn quickly, and genuinely enjoy becoming part of the daily rhythm of each place.

    Before starting this journey, both of us worked in the field of care and health. Vale has experience supporting children and premature babies in their development, a path that has cultivated patience, sensitivity, and great attention to detail. Dinka has also worked in healthcare and especially enjoys hands-on, practical tasks — she loves building, fixing things, and learning new skills that involve working with her hands.

    We really enjoy cooking and eating in a conscious, nourishing way, and we see the kitchen as a space for connection and care. We also feel a growing connection with yoga and Ayurveda, paths we are gradually integrating into our everyday lives. At the moment, we are finishing a yoga teacher training.

    We are both massage therapists and have worked in different settings, including spas and holistic retreat centers. We are familiar with and drawn to various wellness practices such as Bach flower remedies, Reiki, meditation, crystal healing, Thai massage, and yoga nidra. We are interested in well-being from a natural, balanced, and accessible perspective, integrated into daily life and adapted to each person and space.

    We love animals, nature, and peaceful environments. We are responsible, respectful, clean, and committed to the spaces we inhabit. We enjoy teamwork and community life, and we believe that every experience is an opportunity to grow, contribute, and keep learning together.
