Description
Hi, We are Emily and Afton, both 24yo girls from rural Australia on our way to see the world!

We met at uni and in December graduated with our master's of architecture. We are moving to the UK with the aspiration of eventually starting our careers here but are not in a rush!

Having grown up rural Australia we were both raised to be tough and versatile, with a love for the outdoors and an itch to see what else is out there. We are especially keen to see what the countryside here has to offer (seeing a hedgehog in the wild is definately on the bucket list!)

We have a diverse range of knowledge that we want to use to help people. Emily grew up on a farm in South Australia, helping the family with gardening and farmwork. Afton has spent much of her childhood living in central Australia camping in the desert and helping with community art projects.

We both share a love of architecture, design, cooking and animals. We are open to learning new skills and helping around a house, farm, or wherever we are needed.

We are looking forward to getting to know you!
Feel free to ask us questions as there is only so much of us we can put in a description.

Laissé par l'hôte (Help create a non-profit ...) pour le workawayer (Emily & Afton)

What a universal blessing it was when Emily and Afton found there way to us. We literally had a woman rearrange her plans then moments I had a email from Emily and Afton and it felt really aligned.

Both women brought their individual flare and attributes and it was a pleasure to get to know them both. They both shared a room which was convenient… read more for us and both kept the house and all communal spaces clean and tidy. As a team they worked through doing jobs they had never done before such as rendering a wall- literally watching a google video then applying what hey learnt, I was amazed at their approach in life to just give it a go and its felt really empowering to watch them as young women GO FOR IT and its brought a great positive frequency to the project. In fact the whole neighbourhood was impressed and the wall looks great.

Both women are qualified architects and supported us through a difficult time when we did not quite understand things regarding building etc, and they were patient and caring which helped.

I think I joked a little about the whole cultural exchange thing with them, but actually I feel we all learnt about each others cultures and ways in which we talk as at times they both did not quite understand things I was saying or the context, and over time we all got each other a lot more and understood each other and our cultural differences and ways we speak which was quite a interesting process. I loved to learn about their child hoods in rural Australia and I think due to they up bringing it has given them both a very good grasp on life and finding solutions for things and their not afraid to get their hands dirty, and both were always happy to learn new tasks.

We had such fun productive days in the woodlands and Afton taught me how to light fires and have patience , and we all created some good memories down there and plus a good space for retreats in the future.

Emily did some fantastic wood work and created chisel stands for us and pretty much had a good grasp on all DIY / Wood work tasks. I had some really nice chats with Emily and I find her a a very grounded young woman and I learnt a lot from her ways. Afton too was great at DIY and saw tasks through until the end and has a really innocent and gentle personality and over time I have seen her grow in confidence. Together they make a great team with good work ethics, easy going to live with plus they make really good cakes.

We also had a street party and both women mucked in to help do children's face paints and really just used there initiative to get involved and this made things flow easy.

We highly recommend both women for work aways positions together or on their own and wish them both all the very best on their journey in life as they both have a lot to offer to the world .

You are both very powerful beautiful and considerate women and have a special friendship which is lovely to witness. Thank you for being patient with my upside down talking, noise sensitivity and endless lists this really eased my anxiety's at times.

You got this you two- " Your alright" lol

Much love and appreciation
