We are a couple.
We have been enjoying Workaway in many different countries in the past few years and are planning to continue doing so in Italy for about a year till December 2024.
Whilst on our travels we have spent 2 months in Nepal volunteering with children at Child Welfare and Eduction (CWE), 2 months in India volunteering at Tibet World in McLeod Ganj, about a month in the ‘Stans’ exploring the nomad life.
We also spent 2 months in Norway working on a potato farm near the Artic Circle. Ken was driving the harvester and Barbara was sorting and packing potatoes. The last three summer seasons we have been workawaying in a beautiful remote place in the Scottish Highlands helping our host Sylvia who has become family to us.
We are looking forward to similar experiences where we get to meet, live and work with the locals.Mais algumas informações

Kenny has also been a great help when any technical issues have… read more

We stayed at his cool property in the countryside. His house is old and needs a lot of work, after we met him and his children we really wanted to help out as much as we could. Most of the work was general maintenance and we could see that… read more
