Descrição
My name is Jo! Me and my Husband (Ross) became part of the work away community in 2018 when we spent 6 months exploring parts of the world together. We both love travelling and love the idea of using workaway so that we can get to know different areas and cultures off the beaten track.
A little about us -
I'm Jo! I moved to Scotland to from Yorkshire to study Art and quickly Edinburgh became home. Since graduating from Art school I trained as a florist and have worked in Flower shops, as a freelance wedding Florist and in gardening Groups with people with learning disabilities. I have continued to study and trained to be a Learning disability nurse and art therapist I love working with people and I am passionate about what I do, I am hard worker and happy to try my hand at most things, this has been clear looking at the wide range of part time jobs I have had through out my studies. Working Front of House at a Theatre in Edinburgh is where Ross and I met almost 10 years ago. Ross has worked in theatre for over 15 years and now has a wealth of technical knowledge and skills. Ross made the leap to train in stage management and technical theatre after working in computer programming in a previous life. Ross works with international visiting companies and loves getting to know people from all walks of life. Along with using his practical skills , Ross' job also involves him actively taking a lead in teaching young people about technical theatre.
We are looking forward to getting to know Hosts on our adventure and learn new skills.
