Descripción

A bit about us:

We met whilst studying at Plymouth University (Ellie studied Geography and Marine Science and Adam studied Business) and went travelling after finishing our degrees. We also did a ski season in the French Alps together as chalets hosts.

We since bought a house in the Forest of Dean, and have been working full time as a Marine and Coastal Adviser (Ellie) and a Procurement and Project Manager (Adam) for a few years.

We knew there was more of the world we wanted to see which we didn't get to in pre-Covid times, and so decided to take a career break in Jan 2024 for 4 months (woohoo!).

Incorporating Workaways into our trip has been of big interest to us since we started our planning as we want to meet local people, learn about local culture and ways of life, learn new skills, and (hopefully) help people along the way. We hope we can connect with people who share out interests and passions in life and enrich each others experiences.
