Description

Hi, i'm Matt. A happy and friendly person from Nottingham, England. Im currently on Quadra Island BC where I have been living and working on a resort for nearly a year. It is time to move on in Fall and find a place for the Winter. I have a van which I am converting into a camper, which potentially i could stay in if needed.

Since 2017, I have been travelling and doing work away/wwoof placements and working on various orchards/vinyards/nurseries/private estates/resorts. Before I went travelling, I set up a professional gardening business based in Nottingham, at the age of 18. After a few years this grew to the point I had to take on others. In doing this I developed a broad set of garden maintenance related skills, also a lot about working as a team and teaching people on the job whilst also learning and growing as a person myself. I ran this business for almost 8 years when I decided that I wanted to go and see more of the world and have some new experiences. I am a quick learner and would be willing to try most things, I take pride in what I do and like to see a job done well. I am a vegetarian. Juggler/circus skills enthusiast and a big music lover...

I'm excited to find my next placement!

thanks for reading

Matt :)
