Description
Hello,
My name is Taylor, i'm from the UK and am just starting my WHV in Canada. I'm really excited to explore the country and meet lots of people, I'd love to use workaway to help me with this and learn new skills. I have done a bit of traverling but nothing like workaway, I'm easy going and very friendly wanting to get to know people from all walks of life.Interests

More details about your skills
So I have worked in construction for about 7 years, mostly doing carpentry work. I am confident in most aspects of building and maintenance and happy to utilise these skills to help my host. I have done a 2 year animal management level 3 course and volunteered in a zoo for many years, also doing 6 months maternaty cover in a safari park working with a variety of animals. I will admit i have loved working with primates in the past however i have a lot of experieance with all sorts of farm animals and capable of working with anything my host has. In my personal time I enjoy the outdoors, from hiking, exploring, canoeing, surfing, gardening, archery, bushcraft and camping.

What else ...
I'm sure i've missed out lots about me but one big thing i misseed is that i am a scout leader for my local troop by me in the UK. I have done this now for about 4 years and have loved helping teach children about the outdoors and watching them grow into responsible citizens. I mostly dealt with the 11-18 year old range but i have helped with the younger sections,
