Description

Hi!

I am looking for interesting and memorable opportunities in Europe and the UK. I am from the other side of the world (New Zealand), and so far have been travelling since June.

Throughout August I have been working on a small organic farm in Oxfordshire, UK. I am really enjoying learning about organic gardening, as well as learning administrative skills involved in the operation of a small shop that sells produce and baked goods.

In my spare time I enjoy exploring the local area, I particularly enjoy large parks or trails. I enjoy running and am an avid reader.

I am also undertaking some part-time study in data science/ data analysis. This does not take up much of my day, probably only a few hours a week, so there is plenty of time for other activities, but it does mean an internet connection would be a huge plus for me.
