Description

Hello :-) thank you for reading our profile
We have been together for 3 happy years. We live in South Devon England & enjoy our Summers at our home close to the coast & Dartmoor. We love travelling & spending our Winters volunteering.

We make a good team & can offer a range of skills, we have renovated houses, have lots of gardening experience, Paul is skilled at construction work, carpentry & engineering, Ana has experience of hospitality, yoga retreats & hotel management. Both of us are experienced project managers.

We are both fit & energetic, keen walkers & cyclists, we love yoga & meditation, we have our own eco-project at home, & enjoy cooking, gardening and we are both very creative.

Ana spent 10 years travelling solo, & stopped for several workaway projects eg. teaching English in Java and Sulawesi, helping at a massage school in Bali, 2 renovation building projects in France, assisting on a Spanish wellness retreat, permaculture & kugelkulture gardening.
She worked 6 Winter ski seasons in France, Austria & Italy in hospitality, managing 11 self catering chalets, then 3 hotels from 30-84 beds.
Paul has an engineering background with a particular interest in eco projects.

We love this lifestyle as it allows us to live in beautiful places & meet new people :-)
