Overview
About Me
We are a newly married couple looking for opportunities to travel to new places, learn new skills, and meet new people. We are cooperative, enthusiastic, open minded, and ready to share new experiences. We are especially interested in sustainable living and creating the least amount of impact on our home and the inhabitants she lovingly provides for. Our intentions are to learn as much as possible from like minded-people so that we may one day implement the knowledge we gain in our own lives and teach others what we have learned.
We enjoy cooking and prefer organic, non-GMO foods. Our physical and emotional health is very important to us, and we rarely get sick.
We both have excellent communication skills and are cooperative and respectful. We are self-contained and will pick up after ourselves. We're positive, hardworking, and willing to learn!
We love animals and have a 4 year old, well behaved black lab mix as a third member of our family. Ideally, we would like to bring him with us on our adventures. He has had rattlesnake and Colorado River toad avoidance training and basic obedience training.
