Travel information

I am currently

Description

I grew up in England but have made USA my home for over 30 years.
I may be a little older, but with age comes more wisdom (don’t stand behind a farting elephant),more common sense (don’t squat with your spurs on) more flexibility (you’re out of red wine? Ok I’ll have the white) more initiative- If it’s broken fix it, if its dirty clean it and if it’s empty I'll saddle the horse and head to town!
Yes, I admit, I prefer the company of animals but I'm pretty laid back and get along with most humans as well.
I am happy working solo or part of a team, supervised or unsupervised. I am a non smoker (I prefer inhaling fresh air), not a party person (unless salsa is involved) responsible, clean and tidy.
I have been a professional horse rider most of my life and was also an equine veterinary assistant. I have volunteered and traveled the world doing everything from animal care,construction to wall murals. I love learning new skills and immersion in local culture and communities.
I do answer to God but don't judge other’s beliefs. So if you’re looking for someone who's adventurous, loves helping others and believes that kindness, joy and laughter are more important than any worldly possessions then I would love to be part of your story.
