Information de voyage

Actuellement, nous sommes

Description

We are driven by curiosity, connection, and adventure. We get a buzz out of stepping into the unknown, immersing ourself in new cultures, learning from locals, and living life in a hands-on, meaningful way. Whether we are bikepacking remote valleys, navigating language barriers, or finding creative ways to fix a problem with limited tools, we thrive when I’m outside my comfort zone and using my initiative.

What excites us most is people — hearing their stories, sharing laughs, and getting stuck into something alongside them, whether it's helping out on a farm, cooking in a shared kitchen, or mucking in with a local project. We believe the best travel experiences come from genuine connections. where both sides learn, give, and grow. That’s what keeps us saying “yes” to new experiences, thats what keeps us buzzing!

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I’m a bit of a human multi-tool — practical, adaptable, and always ready to roll up my sleeves. I don’t see problems; I see creative challenges with solutions waiting to happen. Whether it’s fixing a leaky tap, whipping up a feast from whatever’s in the kitchen, or helping wrangle bikes, tools, or people — I’m your person.

At home, DIY is my jam. I built my own bike shed, know my way around basic carpentry and tools, can repair bikes, tend a vege patch, and love cooking hearty meals (especially for a crowd!). I’ve also worked for over 25 years as an outdoor instructor and guide — leading hiking, sea kayaking, and biking adventures — which means I’m used to thinking on my feet, working with all sorts of people, and keeping calm under pressure.

I bring a strong work ethic, a positive attitude, and a whole lot of initiative. I’m not afraid to get dirty, have a laugh, or try something new — and I genuinely love learning from others along the way. If you’re after someone who’s capable, friendly, and good in a team, I’d love to pitch in.

Autres infos...

Right now, we are bikepacking through South America. We started in Cartagena, Colombia, over six months ago and have been pedalling through mountains, jungles, and small towns ever since. It’s been an epic adventure, but we’re now craving a pause — a chance to rest, reconnect, and give back in a meaningful way.

We care deeply about the environment and try to live in a way that’s sustainable and community-minded. We're especially passionate about projects that support local ecosystems, reduce waste, or create a better future for the next generation. We also have a soft spot for animals — particularly dogs — and will happily spend hours giving belly rubs or helping with their care.

In our downtime, we love board games and card games — from old classics to quirky new ones. We are always up for learning something new, sharing a laugh over a bit of friendly competition, and bringing people together around the table. Whether it's cooking, creating, playing, or simply lending a hand, we are excited to meet people, share skills, and be part of something positive.
