Descripción

Hello!
We are Shambe and Sophie,
We are best friends backpacking through Mexico for a few weeks and are very keen to engage in more grounded and authentic experience of this beautiful country. We are artists and energy workers seeking to connect with others that hold a deep deep reverence and connection to nature and its diverse indigenous communities. We love to learn new skills and are happy to be put to work caring for the land, animals, cook meals or helping to build and maintain farms, homesteads or community dwellings. We both have experience with slower travelling styles, such as living in community and working with the land. We aren't the strongest spanish speakers but are very excited to improve and contribute to a wider cultural exchange during our time with you.
