Description

Hi,
I am 30 and have recently left my job as a lawyer in Melbourne. I'm currently doing some travel in Australia and ultimately looking to move back to the UK in December but I'm hoping to do some exploring and enjoy spending time in nature before then. I grew up in the UK and moved to Australia in 2024. I grew up on a lovely little farm in the Welsh countryside. I was lucky enough to have horses from a young age, which has always been a passion of mine. We also had dogs, cats, sheep and chickens. I adore nature, hiking, being active (tennis, running, pilates etc.). I also love meeting new people and getting to know them.

More details about your skills

I have a lot of experience working with animals - I grew up with dogs (labradors), I hand reared orphan lambs as a child (and then looked after them as fully grown sheep - my family ended up with around 10 sheep!). I had horses/ponies from the age of 3 to 19. I competed in eventing, dressage and showjumping. We also had 4 chickens, which I loved looking after. I love chopping wood, I'm handy at mowing the lawn and have had some gardening experience. I can drive a manual and have driven my dad's tractor (although much more practice is needed).
I grew up in a 'muck-in' type environment - my dad was handy at DIY so I was always helping paint and build things.
I love being active in any way and my favourite thing is being outdoors.

What else ...

I'm happy to muck in with things. I love reading, music and chatting with a glass or wine or cup of tea. I'm also very happy in my own company, enjoy peace and quiet and absolutely love being outside in nature.
