Hi, my name is Will and I'm a 38 year old man from the US.....After about 3.5 years of little to no travel (due to covid) I've decided to leave my job at the womans treatment center and embark on a new journey where my girlfriend and I pack up our backpacks and travel from Columbia to Machu Pichu in Peru. I've done a significant amount of travelling (3 years and 25 countries) and mostly volunteering (over 60 hosts). I got the itch to get back out there and explore some more. I feel happiest when i can travel around, meet new people, exchange culture/ideas, help others with projects and share/learn different skills. Other than travel I enjoy yoga, going to the gym, hiking, and watching sporting events. My skills vary as I've done a little bit of everything during my time volunteering, but I'm very keen on manual labor. I don't have a particular diet and will eat mostly everything
Hi there my name is Emily. I'm a 27 year old woman from the US who has had a desire to travel for quite some time now. As much as I enjoy my job working in the Womens treatment center and helping clients get back to a positive and fulfilling life, it's time for me to finally get out there and see some of the world. So like my boyfriend I've decided to leave my job in an attempt to have these experiences I've heard are so amazing. I have a variety of skills as I spent a great deal of time with my father cutting down trees, building and maintaining a pod/fish, general landscaping. As much as I enjoy manual labor I'm open to doing a variety of work. In my spare time I like to cook, hike, exercise, and spend time with my cats and my boyfriend. As much as I love food I found that eating a vegan diet works best for me.Interests

Namaste Will!
Walked in to the farm and immediately met some very nice folk but wasn’t sure how I was gonna tangle myself in with what seemed to be an already well meshed group.
