Description
I am a divorced single male living alone on a small farm property. I have an extensive history in law-enforcement, having retired in 2010. I have a small acreage farm, presently I have only chickens and sheep on the property . I also run a small pedigree Ragdoll cattery as a hobby. I live about 3 kilometers from the main town, which is easily accessed by a walking trail nearby. I have motor-vehicles here, but due to insurance reasons, my vehicles are not available for use by visitors.
I have a very relaxed nature, drink alcohol only occasionally and don't smoke. My 2 children (now adult) don't live with me, but visit occasionally. My home is usually neat and clean, and I have clean habits. I had retired but have returned to the workforce again in a professional role, but work only casually. There are a few occasions when I am required to work away at very short notice, which then requires a lot of trust in any workaway visitor who may be staying here in my absence. I would ask that my residence is treated with respect on those occasional times that I am absent. Please understand that I would ask that 'Workways' do not have guests back to my home during their stay here.
I am very open to hosting travelers who are honest, and of good character, in exchange for some work/labor around the house and 2.5 acre property. I am happy to cook for you, but feel free to share that task if you wish to.
Best wishes - Russell
