Meet the team

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]There are some people who only dream of experiencing new things, of travelling the world – others make it happen. The team at YDP did. Between us, we’ve spent more than 432,000 hours travelling the world (that’s 18,000 days, or 51 years) and visited more than 55 countries. We’ve worked in delis in Dublin and been tour guides in Europe. We’ve cleaned cinemas in Australia and mowed lawns in Cuba, we’ve done construction work in Israel, washed windows in Liverpool and been a dance instructor in Slovakia. We’ve shovelled snow in Colorado and au paired in Washington DC. We’ve worked on mission ships and cruise ships, coached tennis in London and even played rugby in Uruguay[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”904″ border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” img_size=”330 x 180″][vc_column_text]
