Description
Just another kiwi that loves Europe.
Moin Moin, im Martin a stonemason from New Zealand. Since having such a great time travelling Europe in 2024 and meeting some great people, I've recently returned to UK with a working holiday visa in hopes to do the same. I love making new friends of different cultural backgrounds, talking about their own as well as new cultures while immersing myself within it. Hiking and as of recently baking/cooking are a big hobby of mine, mainly specialising in German Recipes at the moment:)

More details about your skills
For the past 3 years I've been working as a stonemason. we build mainly internal and external stone vaneer walls, as wells indoor fireplaces and outdoor stone wallings. Most of my skills sets are mainly related to manual labour of sorts, gardening farming masonry etc. I have spent 5 months in Ireland volunteering for My Lovely Horse Rescue( an animal rescue/shelter that helps mistreated animals). it was hard but rewarding work, I learnt a lot about horse and dog behaviours, mucking out stables, feeding, cleaning kennels, goats, pigs and dealing with the Irish weather😄
I love helping animals and it warms my heart too help and nurse them back to good health.
I've worked in hospitality for a few winters back home but mainly as a dishwasher and on occasions kitchen hand. I've Spent a few months working in hostels while I was travelling, cleaning rooms removing bed sheets etc. Im hard working and someone that's easily teachable, I'm open to learning new things and discovering more efficient ways to improve on stuff.
