***PROFILE UPDATE: July 2022***
We're currently living and working part-time near Bath, having moved here in the midst of the COVID pandemic. We help a busy private family at their home, with general housekeeping, gardening/ groundwork/ DIY and animal care.
**********************************************
Hello! We’re Matthew and Ruth, and we’re a happy and life-loving married couple We’re fit, healthy and active and like to keep it this way!
We’re from Wales originally, where our family still live, and up until January 2018 we lived and worked in Edinburgh for 7 years.
Prior to this, in 2009, we did some extensive globe-trotting for a year, which changed our lives and our outlook forever. It also shaped our dreams and ambitions and gave us our love of adventure, of meeting new people and embracing new cultures (and food!)
It also made us realise how important it is to take (or make) every opportunity for happiness and fulfilment that comes along, and that simple pleasures are most often the best!
Our main ambition since returning from world travelling in 2010 has been to, yes – you’ve guessed it – do it some more ......and this time for as long as possible! We’ve holidayed extensively throughout France, Spain and Portugal over the years and now its time to get to know them a little better. We also welcome opportunities to explore the UK more too!
So, to get back to what we love – travelling - we’ve been working and saving hard in our office jobs purely to give us the opportunity to fulfil our dreams of travel and adventure once again.
We have no children or pets, but we are true dog-lovers and up until a few years ago have always had them as part of our family.
We love all animals, nature and the great outdoors, exploring new countries and all they have to offer.
We’re a confident and self-reliant couple, and are also discreet and independent - equally at ease in the company of others or just with each other.
We are both hard working, trustworthy and flexible, and can readily work to specific instructions and requirements without supervision. Due to our age and experience, and having been homeowners for many years, we’re also able to act on our own initiative and be proactive in identifying what needs doing – see it, sort it!
Our main skills that we would like to offer our hosts are: house-sitting, basic DIY, gardening, physical labour, housekeeping, animal care, IT and computing, friendly social and customer service skills. We’re keen to assist in any way required, so just ask!
We like to socialise and enjoy sharing a meal with others on occasion, but prefer to be able to prepare our own meals independently. For this reason, we will always ask wherever possible that our accommodation is private and includes kitchen and dining facilities (however small!)
So that’s us!
We look forward to meeting you!
