Travelling
Description
Friendly, curious, kind, and patient.
Hello! I am an engineer from New Zealand who has come to explore Europe and find inspiration for what life could be like. New Zealand is beautiful but tiny and it was time to leave to do some exploring. Have always liked history so I wanted to see Europe for its diversity of cultures and people.
I love meeting other interesting people and sharing ideas, reading, spending time with friends and family, finding good music, motorbikes, and spending time in nature or with animals.
I learn quickly and don't mind getting my hands dirty or heavy lifting. Coming from a small town I am practical and enjoy problem solving. Good at designing things or figuring out how to get tasks done, have used all sorts of power tools working with wood and metals but just as useful with a shovel or computer. Can even sew a little bit too! Can drive manual vehicles if needed and have an International Driving Permit.
Would love to contribute my time, skills, and ability towards projects outdoors or related to nature to learn some new skills, meet new people, and improve my knowledge of other languages along the way. Thanks for your time reading my profile.

The mill is near the beautiful Alps and having a group of other Workawayer's stay makes it a lot of fun. You will almost certainly make some interesting friends from new places, try some new dishes, and get a chance to explore the area during your time off.
