Description

Hello!

We are Emily and Ben! We are both from British Columbia (Canada), and we’re travelling through Europe this fall. We’re looking for workaway opportunities in Italy throughout October before we leave for England and Ireland to visit our extended family!

I (Emily) work as a registered nurse at a small rural hospital in Canada. I am passionate about caring for others through challenging life moments and feel honoured to get to support people through the vulnerabilities that are faced in healthcare. In addition to my work, some things that bring me happiness are: hiking, biking, art, my family, and building community!

Ben is a registered Early Childhood Educator and recently graduated university with a degree in Geography. He has 5+ years of working in early childhood education, supportive childcare, and 1:1 support for youth with developmental disabilities in both school and home settings. Additionally, he has experience in outdoor education and various outdoor research projects. He finds happiness in: working with children, downtime (like cards) with family, sports with friends, running, and reading books.

Prior to becoming a nurse, Emily travelled to New Zealand and Australia where she worked on various farms, helped with renovations in a small hotel, and worked in other labour roles. Emily has also travelled through Central America, doing work exchanges in hospitality, at a chocolate factory, and at hostels. Emily is very personable, compassionate, hard working, and motivated.

We’re also both active people. We enjoy hiking outdoors, running, biking, and playing basketball!
