Description

Lucy: After recently completing my A level studies in England, I am hoping to find a fun workaway stay while I travel around the south island for a few weeks in October 2023. I Would love to have the opportunity to experience a snippet of the Kiwi farming lifestyle, having experience in the UK, working on dairy farms and event yards. Growing up on a farm has also given me the opportunities of raising my own poultry and taking care of my own horses.
I also have a keen interest in sports, for example, playing rugby up to county and academy level, so would love to find a host family who share this interest!
Notably, coming from a farming background I am used to long days and hard work, so would to be happy to give any task a go!

Carys: After working at an international event yard, In which I managed top level event horses alongside representing Great Britain at 3* level myself, I am hoping to further expand my life experiences by traveling the beautiful county of New Zealand. Having experience in assisting an accountant, waitressing and bar tending, this has helped me nurture a fun, bubbly, motivated and hard working personality. These opportunities have given me great social skills and a critical eye for detail in terms of animal care. I am also fluent English and Welsh, and would be happy to share my knowledge of these languages with anyone willing to learn!
