Description
Hi!
Our names are Ava and Sean, and we are an adventurous couple looking forward to providing meaningful contributions to others while traveling and gaining cultural experience. We love being outdoors, exploring new places, and have a diverse skillset. Sean is a thrill-seeking traveler with a degree in Psychology and backgrounds in carpentry and technology, while always carrying love and respect for nature. Ava is bright and easy-going, with an extensive background in animal husbandry and passion for conservation, who just graduated with her Master's degree in Ecology (undergraduate work in Marine Biology research).
We both work well independently as well as in teams to accomplish goals, and have a very strong work ethic. As recent graduates, we are taking time to explore European countries and hope to broaden our cultural lens, visit historical sights, and create meaningful connections with others abroad!Interests

More details about your skills
Both of us enjoy working with our hands, and are interested in applying our animal husbandry skills, while exploring the local area!
Sean is a jack of all trades, with interest and experience in carpentry, landscaping, computer technologies, plumbing, electrical work, and farm duties. He has wonderful people-skills, and always provides a laugh while endlessly solving problems. He speaks English, with some Spanish and Portuguese. He loves to chat about philosophy, and is looking forward to agricultural and construction projects. He is no stranger to fixing things that have broken, and always displays true grit, with pride in his work.
Ava has extensive experience in animal husbandry and field work, and has been working with and riding horses for as long as she can remember. Over time, abilities widened, and she has been responsible for many exotic and endangered species (giraffes/okapi/etc.). During university, she has been conducting seagrass research in laboratories and estuaries, to aid conservation/restoration efforts. She also enjoys gardening, organizing, and has experience in child and environmental education.Age
