Currently in Federal NSW moving to Sydney so looking for somewhere around this area. Interested in all outdoor work, especially animal care and gardening

Description

We are very enthusiastic, hard working and adventurous people eager to start our newest adventure with you!
We’ve always had a very strong passion for everything outdoors, both flora and fauna. We have an extensive background in animal management and care with lots of different species including otters, penguins and reptiles.
During college we worked on a farm for 2 years and loved every second of working in the beautiful outdoors. Our passion for animals and beautiful landscapes is what sparked our Australian adventure. So far on our journey we have never experienced such beauty in nature and have been in awe at the incredible wildlife we have seen!
During our time in Australia we’re very eager to meet new people and learn all about your life here in this beautiful country.
This is our first experience of Workaway, and we would love to work for you and experience your beautiful home.

More details about your skills

Our skill base is very outdoors including gardening, grounds maintenance and animal care.
We have an Animal Management Diploma which we achieved on a working farm. During our time at college we gained experience in gravelling pathways, fence building and weeding. We also worked very closely with livestock including chickens, cows, pigs and sheep.
As well as this we were previously penguin, otter and reptile keepers at an aquarium in the UK, so we have lots of experience and knowledge of working with exotic species.
We are also very creative and have produced lots of art in our free time. This means we have lots of experience in painting, on both paper and larger areas such as bedrooms and fences.
