Profile information
Description
We are a couple with a 10 year old son. We want him to experience some other cultures and countries, but not just as a tourist but stopping to get to know a place a bit more. We enjoy the outdoors - walking, swimming, kayaking. I work for a charity and my husband is a chef. Bruce was in the army for 24 years. We have both lived in a variety of countries.
We have a dog at home. I used to spend a lot of time looking after horses.
I have a degree in Environmental Science and have spent about 9 years working on forestry/conservation. I also have skills around IT and social media. I do like gardening but am not super experienced at this.
I help out at our local school with reading.
Our son Max is well behaved and enjoys meeting people. He loves reading, basketball, tennis and computer games.
We are friendly and hard working.Interests

It’s a really lovely location. We enjoyed swimming in the lake.
In the area you can also go canoeing and on the zip line.
Thank you for a wonderful stay 😀
Always ready to work and would try any task given to them.
They were kind, communicative and accompanying. They even took our two kids in a couple of excursions.
I would highly recommend them as Workawayers and we hope they come back to see us next year, either as Workawayers or just as Friends.
