Beschreibung

Hi! I'm Joshua, I've come from Melbourne, Australia to travel Europe and and learn about how different people live! I'm not young but that's a good thing because I'm very easy going and I know the value of working hard.
This is my second round of workaway, previously doing it during 2016/17 and I've decided to take a few months career break. I am a qualified carpenter but also have experience as a farm hand, mechanics and generally labouring.
Hope to meet you soon! At the moment I have built an interest in traditional round timber framing and sustainable building practices, as well as passive house building. Not to mention I love animals and happy to get into some dirty work as long as there is a shower at the end of the day. Laid back, not a picky eater, I do enjoy a beer or two being an Aussie. Looking forward to seeing if we are a good fit.


INTENDED ITINERARY
Currently in Samerberg, Bavaria til late aug
Aug - Mid sept: anywhere between Bavaria to Belgrade.
Mid Oct-Jan 2024: Hungary, Slovenia, Greece, Romania, Poland, France, Scotland..

I'm a hands on, quick learner and very hardworking! My hobbies are hiking, camping, offroading- travelling, reading, swimming/surfing/scuba/snorkling, eating, buddhism and enjoying a good beer or whiskey. Big fan of animals, land and marine! Hoping to get some experience and to one day work in conservation. I enjoy learning new skills and am hoping to find a new passion during my travels for the next career in my life! Otherwise I'm really relaxed and happy to be able to put in a good days work and hopefully to make lots of friends while doing it!
