Hello Everyone! We are an Australian couple that are currently on a 2-3 year worldwide working holiday. Lachy (29) is a qualified electrician and has worked a multitude of different jobs as he has a passion for learning new skills. Isabel (31) has a university degree in writing and has been working as a social media manager and content writer. Combined we have travelled around 50 countries and have a passion for learning about the people, their culture, and their ways of living. We are hardworking and eager to learn new tasks in new places with new incredible people. We are always respectful and do our best to cater for the needs of our employers/hosts. Both of us enjoy cooking and trying new and exciting foods, especially desserts, as we both have a wicked sweet tooth!
We spend most of our time at home working, spending time with friends and family, and travelling in our van whenever we get the chance.

Update on occupation and skills (2023)
Our first volunteering as a couple was on a dairy farm in Iceland during September of 2022. Here we were milking cows, building sheds, framing walls and windows and installing corrugated perspex around a barn, as well as many other day to day tasks.
We completed our first season of tree planting and spraying in the UK , travelling around England and working to varying specifications and in a multitude of different terrains from November 2022 - June 2023.
Our second volunteering as a couple was at a surf camp in Nicaragua during August/September of 2023. Here, Iz worked on their social media, graphic design and general tasks to do with customer service. Lachy worked as a general 'handyman' fixing or building whatever was required as well as maintenance, stocking of products and surf guiding.
We are currently working in our second season of tree planting in the UK.
