  • More details about your skills

    I studied construction originally but have been working in building maintenance for the past 5 years in a hotel and nursing home. I have a wide variety of skills and knowledge in regards to buildings and working with occupants of each location.
    Typical jobs would include troubleshooting issues, electrics, plumbing, painting, carpentry, general repairs to all building materials

    i love design and construct projects especially with timber - storage/shelving/tree houses/cabins/greenhouses/stonework

    I grew up in the Irish countryside looking after animals, dogs, cats, ponies, goats, gardening etc.

    Current Update: i gave up my job earlier this year due to burn out/health issue(tinnitus &noise sensitivity) so i may not be able to perform all tasks that i am skilled in- power tools, overly physical work etc
    i am looking for a workaway where i can do lighter duties for the time being -gardening/painting/animal care/meal prep
    most of all i would like to be in an environment where i can heal fully, preferably in a nature setting
