More details about your skills

My childhood was spent on a small dairy farm in New Guinea. My interest in farming led to my studies at agricultural colleges, where I studied horticulture, viticulture and winemaking. My work experiences have been in wineries, breweries and education facilities. Additionally, I have completed a short course in cheesemaking, whilst teaching food technology. I am a beekeeper and have my own hives. In recent years I have developed a particular interest in goat farming and I would love to have practical experiences in this area to supplement the knowledge I have gained from research. I am a very hands-on person and do not shy away from hard work. In Australia, I have volunteered to farm sit whilst farmers are on holidays. This has included caring for livestock. My hobbies are gardening, grafting and fishing. I am a lifelong learner and relish gaining new knowledge and skills. Doing this in other countries is something I really desire.
