Activities i am interested in:

In Southland currently. Will be heading to central Otago the start of next month for a few days then up to Tasman.

Description

Here in New Zealand from the UK on a working holiday visa until January 2027.

I enjoy being outdoors whether it be working or in my free time. I like to do hands on tasks like fencing, DIY, welding, general handyman type jobs. I'll often go on drives to walking spots or just simply where the road takes me.

I also enjoy clay pigeon shooting, did some in the UK and have some done some more in NZ. When not outside, I'll usually be watching motorsports, reading or listening to some music.

More details about your skills

I'm a very hands on person. I have worked professionally as a bespoke furniture maker so I'm very experienced with all manner of woodworking tools. I have a welding certificate and I'm a metal work hobbiest. I can do basic mechanics as I own an old 4x4 both in the UK and New Zealand. From experience in New Zealand and back home, I can do fencing, handle sheep, process an animal, drive a quad bike and tractor, gardening, tree felling and can drive with a trailer though my reversing is still a bit rusty. If I don't know how to do something, I can be usually figure it out otherwise I can taught almost anything so long as it involves tools.

Age

27

What else ...

I can cook a mean carbonara, the Italian way, can name every F1 world champion by season and can you tell you about European history, it's proven quite invaluable for pub quizzes. I have no problem with any hunting or animal processing.
