Description

Hi, my name is Antoine, I am 19 years old and grew up in rural Quebec on the family's farm. I consider myself an avid outdoorsman, skier, hunter, and overall I'd say I was raised to be pretty handy. I love to get away from the city, the noise, the mundane and the gray. I was raised as outdoors as possible and that is where I belong.

More details about your skills

I grew up roaming free on my family's 1200 acre farm in Central Quebec. Acquired by my late grandfather in the 1970's, this retired engineer never could've imagined the impact this seemingly endless paradise would have on his grand-children's lives. However, son of two lawyers with no inclination whatsoever in manual tasks, the "generational gap" meant I was the one that learned all these skills. I am mostly self-taught and have never limited my curiosity. In a more concrete manner, I have built by hand with limited budget and help a very decent hunting shack on the farm. I can repair, build, demolish, paint, sand, drill, etc. In terms of ranching experience, my age and my grandfather's recent passing meant I was never really old enough to be of much help when the family's ranching business was at it's peak ( 300 head of cattle in the early 2000's ). That being said my riding skills need much improvement ( which I am eager to improve ). I can do fencing all day if it means getting to learn for 30 minutes about ranching and horsemanship.

What else ...

I have a PAL ( canadian firearms licence ). I am not picky about anything food (as long as I can eat it, some food allergies), sleep, work hours, travel, or pay related.
