My next destination:
Perth, Australia - from Mar 2024 View allDescription
My name is Joe, i'm 29, from Bedfordshire in the UK.
I am currently in Aus on a working holiday visa and have spent the past year in NZ.
I have used Workaway whilst in NZ and had some awesome experiences and made some great friends through it.
Generally, I will turn my hand to most tasks or with a bit of guidance if needed and I would say I'm self motivated to get things done. I have had experience with the following: gardening, using petrol driven machinery (ride on mowers, weed eaters, chainsaws etc.), tree planting, fence repairs/outdoor carpentry, household DIY, looking after ducks/chickens, sheep wrangling and much more..
Back home, I am a CCTV & Access control systems specialist, so I have an i.t/electrical background.
I love meeting new people and would like to get some local knowledge of the Perth area!Interests
