  • Description

    Hey everyone!
    I'm a 31 y.o. (actually medical doctor) from Germany, living in Vienna, who is interested in just about everything the world has to offer and loves to gain new experiences in all different fields (at the moment with special interest in animal husbandry (sheep, goats, horses), farming, self-sufficient living close to nature, sustainability, living off the land, ...) learning new skills, and getting to know different people and new insights from all walks of life. Ever since my work on a cattle farm as a "ringer"/farmhand (mustering on motorbikes/horseback, fencing, work in the yards, vaccinating, random tasks around the station,...) in Australia I really want to go back into this kind of work for a change, I really enjoyed the physical work outdoors with cattle, horses and motorbikes, that gave you that special mix of peace of mind and exhaustion at the end of the day :D Currently I am looking for a similar experience, together with my boyfriend, but with sheep/goats this time, perfect would be mustering on horseback.
    I would describe myself and my boyfriend as very reliable, hard-working, not afraid to get our hands dirty kind of people, who are easy-going, willing to have a go, open minded, friendly and cooperative :)
    We would love to hear from you!
