Activities i am interested in:
Hey I’m Liv! I’m travelling through NZ through 2024 - I love hiking, horse riding, music & art - open to meeting up on the way and sharing this experience!
Description
I'm travelling through New Zealand through 2024 (with a Working Holiday Visa) - interested in staying and working to break up my journey and thoroughly experience new areas. I’m currently living in QT but am looking to get moving again from December.
I'd like to combine a love of travel with working in another country. I'm creative and self-motivated, have a love for animals, art and healthy living.
I'm mainly interested in working with animals, more so horses as I'm an experienced rider - however I'm absolutely up for any animal care, carpentry work and general up-keep and maintenance of land.
I grew up visiting and staying with my aunt in Wales - I lived with and worked for her in 2023. I fell in love with this way of living on a farm and being surrounded by nature, animals and good food.
I've travelled a little over the years but got a lot more planned for the rest of my life :)
My most recent job was as a waitress/host/kitchen hand in a speciality coffee house. Although I learned a lot, particularly people skills, hospitality is not for me... so running away to the mountains seemed like the logical thing to do :)

More details about your skills
I have 14 years horse riding experience - along with general farm/animal care knowledge from living and working on my aunt's farm in Wales. From repairing fences, log cutting/collecting, using a quadbike and trailer - feeding animals, trimming feet, dog training. I've been trusted to 'house/farm sit' solo for her.
I don't have exact training in wood-work but I've established essential skills and knowledge to know how to fix or build from scratch (see photos for random builds). My dad raised me with a mentality of ‘before we buy it, can we build our own?’

I also love playing guitar, reading fantasy, generally being in nature or around animals - love a good mountain hike or wild swim
