We're two travellers for the UK. Both doing Masters. Ayse is originally from Turkey and Mali is from the Solomon Islands. Ayse used to work in Egypt and Syria as a legal advisor. Mali used to work at an NGO in Hereford, UK before living on a farm in Central America to learn about sustainable farming practices and permaculture. We've both just finished conference at the UN as part of our masters and are hoping to meet some interesting people on our way down to Rome.

教，学，和分享

Ayse can teach The Arabic alphabet and Turkish. We can teach you the basics of international humanitarian law (this is what our masters is in). Mali can teach you to dance salsa and make shakshuka. She can also teach you creole so if you ever travel to Melanesia in the South Pacific you can communicate with people! Ayse can make karniyarnik (Turkish aubergine).
