Descripción

Recently I've been spending my summers working on organic market garden farms in BC. Currently working in Lillooet for a farm that additionally ferments (very exciting!). I will be finishing this season in December and would love to find a new experience to spend a few months until the next season begins.

Having worked and lived on farms for the past three years, I've acquired the skills necessary to handle and take care of remote properties. Wether that be feeding, cleaning stalls, and taking care of chickens, pigs, goats. (I am an animal lover and absolutely love dogs and cats the most!). Prepping, taking care of garden maintenance, and handling a wood stove responsibly.

I have previously worked in hotels and hostels as a Receptionist, Night Auditor, and all-around crew member helping housekeeping when needed. I have worked in an office selling whale watching tours in Tofino and Heli-Hike tours in New Zealand. I love working in hospitality and meeting people from around the world who want to experience the amazing adventures that brought me to the same place : )

I enjoy rural/remote locations, surrounded by animals and being outdoors : )

Algo más...

I lean towards the introverted side although I love getting to know new people, places, and cultures. I enjoy my personal space, and spend my free time outdoors or curled-up with a book.

I have lived in many shared housing situations, and I value clean and tidy common areas and maintaining a welcoming home. I love animals (especially dogs) and am happy to live alongside them, they are never a bother.
