Hello!
We are Manu and Cristina, a social, happy, and adventurous couple who love travelling, meeting new people, and discovering new places around the world.
We met in Australia a few years ago and since then we have become one, supporting each other in every aspect of life and starting our journey around the world. We travelled and worked in Australia for 3 years. At the beginning of 2019, we travelled to Argentina to visit Manu´s family and then spent the summer in Spain. In September 2019 we moved to New Zealand where we worked and studied for a few months. In February 2020 we travelled to Samoa to start a workaway experience at a Beach resort for a couple of months. During that time covid-19 hit the world and Samoa closed its borders cancelling our flight out of the country. We were happily stuck living a beautiful life on an island in the middle of the Pacific. Sharing our lives with local people, learning about Samoan culture, and helping with local projects has brought us joy in these difficult times away from family. We could say that our six-week volunteering holiday turned into an unforgettable 2 years of our lives! After 2 years of living Samoa, we went to Europe to visit family for a few months. Currently we are living in Perth and we are looking to start a new adventure in WA, Australia where we would like to settle down for a while.
Get to know us better:
Manu: I am from Argentina, (also Italian citizen) I am 36 and I have been traveling and living new experiences around the world for the last decade. From the time I began, I have liked it more and more. I am a PE teacher and lifeguard, but I have worked in many different fields.I am currently completing my studies in carpentry, having spent the past year gaining valuable experience in building and renovations.
I am a person who likes to do things and keep myself busy. Always predisposed to collaborate and help with new projects, I have gained experience volunteering and working in different countries- which helped me learn and improve my building, cooking, teaching, and gardening skills. I intend to share my knowledge and learn everything I can, and always with a smile and good humor.
Cristina: I am from Spain, and I am 33. I graduated in Business and Management with four years’ experience as a Product Manager in a multinational company. I studied a Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and finished a 4-month course of Tour Guiding in Australia. I have recently finished a B. A. Degree in Primary School Education. I am a person with a great sense of responsibility- dynamic, motivated, well-organized and a fast learner. I have been involved in many different projects that have helped me grow and discover the beauty in life. I love working with people and I am always ready for new challenges.
Since we have been together, we have learned from each other, shared wonderful experiences, and helped with different projects while meeting new people and cultures. We have loved all the adventures we have had while doing Workaway assignments. We would love to keep meeting and helping other people around the world like we have been doing for the last few years.
Many of our hobbies include reading, meditating, surfing, slacklining, outdoor sports, hiking, photography, enjoying relaxing music and appreciating the little things.
Please feel free to contact us for any further enquiries. Looking forward to hearing from you
