Activities we are interested in:

We are interested in learning practical skills for sustainable living. We also love hiking, camping, wild swimming, most adventure sports, playing guitar and doing arts and crafts.

Description

We are a couple from the UK (M29, F29) hoping to expand our knowledge of sustainable living from agriculture to eco-builds in the wild lands of NZ and Oz where we've been travelling and working for the past year already!

We are well-travelled sustainability professionals with experience living in the likes of Canada, Japan and Australia. For the last few years we have been working in corporate sustainability jobs in the UK, but we have found that we are not making the tangible impacts that we would like to and do not feel well-suited to a life at a desk!

We are keen to meet like minded people who can help us develop practical sustainability skills that will contribute to both our careers and our personal lives. In exchange, we can share our knowledge of sustainable business practices with others and bring new ideas to eco-projects.

We are open to many different opportunities in ecotourism, agriculture, forestry, homesteading, conservation, sustainable construction, and we would welcome any chance to rollup our sleeves and get our hands dirty!

Thank you for viewing our profile, we look forward to hearing from you :)

What else ...

We love an adventure! We’re always up for trying new things, meeting new people and learning new skills. You’ll often find us out in nature with friends hiking, cycling, kayaking, camping or slack lining but we also love to explore our creative sides through woodwork, drawing, macrame, playing guitar, dancing and yoga. We also love a game of Perudo - if you don’t know it, we can teach you!
