Description
Beth and I have retired young (60 and 66 years old) to simpler life. We have sold our home and we are exploring the various cultures and characters around the world. We enjoy an active outdoor lifestyle. We love exploring, hiking and climbing. Our interests include music, food, history and geology. Retired may not be the right description, as we both like to stay busy with building, remodeling, pet care and housekeeping. We are interested in meeting people and making a contribution. We are exploring locations and lifestyles to help us decide where we might settle for our later years.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
Professionally I worked as a small business analyst so I have lots of experience with customer service, marketing business planning and implementation. My current interests are more in line with building repair and maintenance. I have always been interested in hospitality and especially ecotourism. Beth was a professional management assistant. She was recognized for her attention to detail and project implementation. Her role was in a seniors complex where she got plenty of experience in computers and especially helping others with computers. She is proficient in Word, Excel and Publisher. Together we bring a caring problem solving and detail oriented work ethic. From tourism to agriculture and rebuilding we can bring value to most any environment.

Linda is a barrel of laughs. We had a monumental stay with her in Okotoks. The work was engaging and the food was great. I got lessoned more than once at board games. Linda was warm and gracious, she was pleased to share her home, her travel experience and love of her community with us. She's a great host for anyone looking to see life today in… read more

This workaway was very special. The hosts are very organized, well prepared, great cooks and fun to be with. The property and location are remarkable. It's a lovely setting very private with animals domestic and natural. There are islands, ponds and walking areas to explore. Its private but still close to town. The work is organized well prepared… read more

We had Beth and Brian help us for three weeks. They raised the bar for us in what "Traveller Workers" can be like. They are hard working and committed to helping you fulfill all your jobs. The first day we went over all the jobs and they just went too it, making sure everything was all done before they left. Tools were cared for and put away and… read more

If you ever get a chance to visit this farm you better do it, you’d be in for an unforgettable island experience. These girls are easy favorites. They host woofers and workaways with more care and consideration than you could possibly ask for. They share their life in this magical Canadian wonderland. Gabriola is one of the gulf islands between BC… read more

I can't express enough how appreciative we are at all the contributions that Brian and Beth made. They have a fantastic work ethic, going above and beyond what was expected; are interesting and interested; companionable and have more stamina and motivation that lots of folks half their age. We'd be glad to host them anytime they are back this way.

Our experience staying with Cindy was truly out of this world. Cindy has carved a hobby farm out of the jungle where she grows exotic fruits by the score. The remote location contributes to the unique experience.

Brian and Beth have been amazing!
They did so much more that what I expected. They were always a step ahead of me helping around the house. From a mega house cleaning, they also helped painting, gardening and even building.
I traveled the last 12 days Brian and Beth were here and came back to find my old cats well cared of which was my priority,… read more

Beth is a Bodhisattva – the epitome of grace. Brian was a dedicated worker and a good cook. You can depend on them to be self-starters and consistent. They left their space super clean. Both are a lot of fun. I have nothing but respect for Brian and Beth and their on-the-road lifestyle. Pura Vida. Can’t go wrong with this couple. Welcomed back… read more

The opportunity to pitch in here is just one of those things you carry with you the rest of your life, unforgettable. The ranch is located on the outskirts of San Isidro de Heredia. This is in the central valley of Costa Rica, a short bus or Uber from the capital San Jose. The high elevation of 1350 m meters puts you in the heart of coffee country… read more

My wife and I are experienced Workaway/Housesitters. We have pitched-in across Canada and Southern Europe but never have we seen a property like this Villa. This was an off grid resort on the southern most island of the Bocas Del Toro archipelago in Panama. The Villa offered a winning combination of ocean and mountain views.

We had so much fun with Mike, Zoe, Erica and all their pets, domestic and wild. It was so much fun it didn't seem like work, although there was plenty of work. The accommodations were perfect. We had a cabin to ourselves, but we were close enough to borrow a cup of sugar or garlic. The swimming pool was great for hot days. We prepared our own… read more

Brian & Beth are the perfect Workaway team! They are easy-going, hard-working, polite and, best of all, great company. Not only that, but Brian is also a master of BBQ'd pizzas and Vietnamese feasts. What more could you ask for in a Workaway couple?

Beth and Brian arrived full of enthusiasm to start their first workaway as part of their grand tour of Europe. It was unfortunate that we and they were immediately trapped in lockdown. They accepted this and we all planned how to safely organise ourselves. The lockdown continued for some ten weeks until we were able to transport them to their next… read more

Boy, what a story we have to tell. We landed and met Kate and Dave for a two-week work stay on March 10. It was a couple of short days before the country was locked down due to the COVID-19 virus. This was the beginning of a lasting friendship. Kate and Dave welcomed us with open arms and welcomed us to stay until we and the world were ready to… read more
