Description

Hi, my name is Elizabeth, I have worked with horses for many years , working in different yards, hunting, competing, schooling and riding school horses. I have worked in Italy, Greece and Israel with the horses which is very much my passion. I love dogs, cats, most animals really (but not snakes!). My own dog is a rescue back labrador called Mac. I love the outdoor life, gardening, horticulture, walking ,reading and learning- a real Country Girl at heart. I am easy going, sociable and willing to muck in with most things, and am happy working solo or in a team. I can understand a little Italian and French but would like to learn more. I hold a full car/motorbike licence and have worked as a barmaid/waitress and Receptionist in a large Social Club. I love experiencing new cultures, architecture/food and meeting new people and four legged friends! Reliable, flexible and trustworthy-ready for a new Adventure.
