Description
Hey prospective host,
Many thanks for having a look at our profile.
We are a married couple from England. We have travelled the world extensively and enjoy meeting new people from around the world.
We also completed a year of travel around the world (March 2019 - March 2020) and returned home due to Covid 19. We love meeting people, experiencing new cultures, eating new foods, listening to new music and learning new ideas! The cats, dogs, pigs, cows, chickens are an added bonus.
We really enjoy our interactions with hosts via Workaway as it helps with our understanding of a place/country. We have completed Workaway placements in Mexico (3), Guatemala, New Zealand (2), India (2) Czech Republic and Turkey (2).
We are extremely hard workers and will give you 100% effort on your projects!
We are:
Honest, hardworking, energetic, resourceful, proactive, healthy.... and fun!
We are not:
Lazy, boring, judgemental, "old"!
We are open to suggestions from any country, any type of work - just drop us an email. Magic can and does happen! Take care and hope to hear from you soon.

What else ...
We have been renovating our 114 year old home for the past 15 years. It would’ve been completed earlier but we do love to travel often! It has been great fun, working together, learning new skills etc. Sue tends to be the "labourer" while Adrian is the builder and planner. We reuse/recycle/repurpose any leftover materials to make even more beautiful things for our home and garden. We also enjoy growing our own vegetables in (homemade) planter boxes - we only have a small garden - showing our grandcubs that food does not always have to come from a supermarket.
If you are not sure what we can do for you, please send us an email. We will answer you with honesty
