Description

I've been raised on a farm in South east of ireland and worked in Electonics industry for the last 19 years (with 2 years taken off to travel during that time). I'm looking to try something else for a while and I am interested in experiencing some different work outside that. I done a 2 week WWOOF in Slovenia last year as part of a year long sabbatical and I really enjoyed the experience, helping out and learning about the work so I want to do more of this. I'm quite a laid back person and get on with people and I would consider myself someone who works hard and listens well to what people are looking to do but I guess you as the host will be the judge of that :)
