Description
Hey there! My name is Amy, I am from Ireland and my fiancé is called Ismaël and he's from Quebec. We just finished working in Germany for 6 months with workaway but now we are currently travelling in Thailand. We love to travel, find new experiences, live on the edge and have fun!

We met over 2 years ago working together at a dog daycare where I worked for 2 years and Ismaël worked for 6 months. We both love animals, meeting new people and exploring.

We just explored some of Canada, Europe, India, Vietnam and Thailand together and will arrive in New Zealand on March 8th so are excited to explore more of what this beautiful country has to offer.

We have both a lot of experience with animals as we worked for a dog daycare in Vancouver with sometimes more than 80 animals at a time (mostly dogs). I (Ismael) has volunteered at a farm on Vancouver island for a couple of months so I have basic knowledge about carpentry and gardening. I also worked in Fairmont pacific rim as a guest attendant so professionalism and hospitality are not unknown to me. Amy has worked in management roles in hospitality and retail so loves to work hands on. She previously worked in construction and also has basic knowledge in carpentry. All her other roles have been customer based and she is really good with people.
Together we speak fluently English, French and Spanish

We stayed with Shannon for a week and had such a great time. She lives in such a beautiful area of New Zealand with scenic views everywhere. We did gardening whilst there which was cool to help her transform her orchard and learn what we would do when we’ll have our own. We had a great time hanging out with her and her 2 cute kids. Such a fun… read more

Amy and Ismael were just amazing. 

They stayed with us for six months and did an outstanding job! Apart from being a lovely couple, they are truly wonderful people to be around. During their time here, they became almost like part of the family. 😄

 Amy is a very dedicated and responsible person, and we absolutely love her sense of humor! We… read more could always count on her, even in urgent or unexpected situations. She never hesitated to take on tasks, even when they came as a surprise. She helped us with housekeeping, in the kitchen, and with service, and was always greatly appreciated by the guests. Amy was flexible with her working hours and took excellent care of our dog, Onno, showing him so much love, empathy, and dedication. She is probably the most animal-loving person I have ever met. Amy also supported us with setting up social media, taking pictures, creating reels, and learning tools like Canva and Buffer. She taught me a lot about Instagram 😄, and her German improved steadily during her stay. Honestly, Amy, you should have stayed six months longer! You'd be fluent ;-)

 Ismael is a calm, patient, and focused young man, yet lively and full of energy when it comes to getting things done. He is a quick learner and very organized, with excellent work ethics. We greatly appreciated his organizational skills; for example, he sorted and organized our wine cellar. He also worked extensively in the garden and handled various maintenance tasks. In housekeeping, Ismael was always quick, efficient, and precise. Additionally, he supported us in the kitchen and with service—always with a smile!
Ismael is also a very mindful person. He practices yoga daily and occasionally facilitated yoga sessions for our team, which we all enjoyed. I’m sure he will become a great yoga teacher one day. His understanding of mindfulness is profound and sincere, and he values open and trusting communication, which we deeply appreciated. We learnt a lot with him about mindful communication.

Overall Experience :
We had an incredible level of trust in both Amy and Ismael. We even felt confident enough to leave the manor house in their care for a weekend, knowing everything would be handled responsibly included Onno and the chickens :-D

Thank you, Amy and Ismael, for your hard work, positivity, and for being such amazing people. We wish you all the best for the future and hope to see you again someday!

We stayed here for 6 months total (31 May- 1 December), before we arrived we had fully intended to stay only 2 months but after just 1 month of being there, we loved the work, people and energy so decided to extend until December. We really enjoyed our daily tasks as they were always varied, this role is also great if you like to be independent in… read more

Being hosted by Gerard and Maggie was an absolute pleasure. They always make sure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. We learned a lot about gardening and construction. Gerard and Maggie would sometimes take us out on the weekend and it was always so much fun. Gerard would also take us sightseeing to see places and wonders… read more

It was a joy to host Ismail and Amy. They were always friendly, outgoing and eager to help. In particular, Amy enjoyed doing some of the cooking while Ismail proved to be handy with repairs. Both were great with my young, active dog, taking him on long hikes and teaching him a variety of tricks. I wish them well on their next adventures and look… read more

Highly recommend staying with Elke! She has a beautiful oceanfront property with a great dog called Buddy. We trained Buddy, walked with him and looked after him during our stay and he’s such a loving dog. We loved the shared meals at the end of the day so we could learn to cook together. Elke had also recommended us a friend to stay with when we… read more

We loved our experience!

My fiancé and I arrived to Newfoundland for the first time in December, Monica picked us up from the airport, showed us good places to go in St. John's/Torbay area and showed us how to care for her animals. We both initially had worked with animals before so went in with knowledge on how to care or them but it's important… read more
