Description

Hello!
I'm currently solo backpacking for the first time and have chosen Europe as my launch pad. I love being outside in nature, getting my hands dirty, and breathing in the fresh air. Connecting with nature is a huge part of my life, and is definitely a big focus for my travels.
I'm passionate about conservation and have experience with gardening and bush regeneration work. I'm hoping some workaways can show me alternative ways of living and expand my horizons with the people I meet and the skills I might learn.
I'm friendly, open-minded, relaxed, always curious, and wanting to challenge myself by getting out of my comfort zone. I also love to be silly and have a good laugh, and have a couple of fish jokes for those who enjoy lame dad jokes. In my spare time I enjoy reading, writing, hiking, and dancing with my flow props.
Feel free to reach out if you think I'd be a good fit! :)

More details about your skills

I have 12 months experience in bush regeneration which involved working outdoors with various hand tools and motorised equipment. I've used equipment such as brush cutters, chainsaws, drills, hedge trimmers, and lawn mowers. I gained skills in weed control (hand weeding, chemical spraying, using machinery) and tree planting.
I enjoy working with my hands and am keen to learn new skills, especially with building or gardening/landcare.
