Description

I've been interested in buying my own land off in the mountains somewhere for a long time now. I'm at the point where I'm able to do so, but I would like to gain some first hand experience, and to visit different places to learn about what they have to offer and what the challenges are.

More details about your skills

I'm a bit of a jack of all trades, mostly master of none though.
I have a lot of experience working with and on computers and electronics in general, I'm quite good at working on cars and trucks. I've been a truck driver for over 2 decades, so I can hold a steering wheel real good.
I have lots of experience with different kinds of power tools, my woodworking skills are half decent, good enough for general carpentry. I've done plumping and electrical, though I mostly stay away from 120v and 220v. some experience with solar wiring and setup.
I love animals and they have a tendency to like me back. while I don't have any experience with keeping sheep, cattle, chickens, etc., I would like to learn more about this subject specifically and I don't mind getting dirty.

My stay with Mercedes and family was wonderful. They are all such great people, and the accommodations are super comfortable. There is a lot of work that needs to be done there, they showed me some things they want to do and told me to pick a project that suits me. I did mostly electrical work there, some carpentry and a bit of roofing.
