Poland - desde Mai 2024 até Jun 2024 Ver tudoDescrição
Hello, we are Iwona and Adrian, a married couple from the UK. We've decided to embrace our passion for travel and new experiences and start our Workaway journey.
We have been together for 17 years and married for 8 years and have a combined love of travel and adventure. We are a mature couple, Iwona is 40 (originally from Poland) and Adrian is 51 (from England). We have our own little house back in the UK, so we are responsible, respectful, clean and tidy but also like to have fun.
We have already visited many amazing places around the world but sadly have always had to return to our 9-5 jobs. But no more, we are ready to embrace more of what excites us, meeting and learning about new cultures and different ways of life, meeting new and interesting people who we can learn from but also help along the way.
We are very keen trekkers/hikers having summited Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. We've also trekked in Patagonia and Alaska, Vietnam, China and have also travelled through Ethiopia where we hiked up an active volcano, slept in the desert under the stars and visited the hottest place on Earth.
I used to be a housekeeper/cleaner, and then an accountant for many years and currently I'm working remotely supporting small businesses with various finance/admit/website/social media tasks. Adrian was working in printing industry and it's very practical, hands-on man with lots of patience and precision.
We are also open to house and pet sitting opportunities and we gained our experiences in the UK, Argentina, US, Australia and New Zealand.
As I'm working remotely (online) few hours a week I would need a decent WiFi/internet access.

The work was enjoyable mainly around the garden (planting, weeding, trimming, cutting back and tidying up).
Delicious food was provided, we never went hungry and nothing was too much trouble.
We would thoroughly recommend :)
They were easy to have living in the house. They were tidy, appreciative & considerate.
I recommend them very highly.
