Description
Hello,
I am a positive person who is passionate about outdoor life and outdoor work.
I love the natural world and have been exposed to an array of environments from working on farms (mostly dairy) in Iceland and Norway to being part of environmental projects and to assisting in botanical gardens.
There is nothing more satisfying than working in the environment and with the environment. I am currently studying an MSc in Energy Engineering and like to work hard outdoors to relax.
I am also interested in exchanging cultural views and learning new languages. Currently I am a B1 German speaker and I am also learning Japanese (very early stage!).
For my next travels I am keen to return to Norway and work either farming or as a permaculture project.
I am always eager to learn and always look forward to meeting new people.

More details about your skills
I am a confident and positive individual looking to use my existing skills and develop new skills as I believe life is about development.
I have a diverse experience having worked with animals having for much a large part of my life and spending nine years working with horses.
I am experienced in extreme cold environments also.
I can do many manual tasks including animal care, farm labouring and maintenance.
In addition prior to finishing my studies I taught English to foreign students and take a patient and empathetic approach to teaching others.
I am very much a people person but can work alone with comfort and positivity.

Feedback
I really enjoyed my time here especially learning about growing in the Northern Norway climate and feeding the lambs.
It was inspiring and I am grateful for this stay.
