Descripción
Hello/Kia Ora! My partner Gus (36) and I (27) are fun and enthusiastic individuals from New Zealand. We are both starting our first overseas experience in the UK. We both have a background working in the outdoors and are keen to get our hands dirty doing an honest day's work. Making new friends and enjoying the company of others is something we both enjoy. We always look forward to learning new skills and keep ourselves busy doing hobbies such as reading, doing yoga, swimming, hiking, surfing, food/culture, arts & music, and outdoor conservation. Gus and I bring a friendly and respectful attitude wherever we visit.

Algo más...
We both love to play card games, and Georgia particularly enjoys Sudokus. With an immense passion for outdoor conservation, we both love hiking and camping. We are sustainability-minded individuals who believe in upcycling, mending things rather than throwing them out, and doing our best to buy secondhand where possible. In our spare time we are often tinkering away at small projects whether it is sewing, stone carving or wood whittling.
Music is an interest of ours that also keeps us busy. We attend gigs as often as we can, and hope to make the most of what Europe has to offer! -
