Description
Hi, Ben here from Aotearoa, New Zealand - currently living in England.
I grew up on an orchard/vegetable farm and spent most of my earlier life being outside and helping out on the farm. I have a developing passion for sustainability and reforestation projects - and also permaculture and agroforestry. I currently work for an ecological restoration/reforestation company. When I return to New Zealand one day I want to go back into studying a degree in biodiversity management and ecological restoration - but for now I'm really interested in helping out on all kinds of projects around Europe to help gain knowledge and make good friends/connections.

Growing up on a farm gave me a lot of 'handy' skills. I can use tools and I have a lot of tractor driving experience. I have done quite a few organic farm experiences already and have also worked in hotels/hostels as housekeeping and reception.
