  • Description

    Hello!

    I'm Benny, I'm 20 years old, and I'm in college to become an engineer. I'm coming to the end of a semester in New Zealand I'm looking to extend my travels once my semester here is over.

    I love being outdoors and finding adventures and I'm not afraid of hard work. At home I love to ski and fish. I've developed a serious interest in permaculture and sustainable agriculture. I'm at a point in my life where I'm trying to learn as many skills and ways of life as possible.

    Overall, I am super open to different jobs that you may have, I love to learn new skills and try new things. I can't wait to see whats out there!

  • More details about your skills

    I have been studying mechanical engineering for three years now. I would love the chance to apply it all. I've worked in the forestry industry running both front-loaders and brush cutters and what not but also planting and fertilizing various species of trees. I spend most winters working in a ski shop, repairing and tuning skis and snowboards. I also have a NAUI open water diving certification.
