Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I am a former Social Worker, now Barber. Farm girl, raised in the country. Numerous skills, predominantly making something out of nothing. I am proficient at gardening, DIY, animal care, refurbishing, reusing and recycling.
Not afraid of dirt or work.
I bartended my way through university and barber school, I have worked in orchards, landscaped and cleaned. There is little I haven't done over the years. I am not a massage therapist but took a massage coarse and reflexology as well. I trained with a traditional Native healer but it has been some time since i practiced.
I can paint,plaster and refinish antiques and windows. I have done upolstery for myself and others and make handmade quilts. I do leather work and repairs and sew mostly by hand.
I have a criminal record check as I was a volunteer for the Hospital Auxillary in Kamloops BC.
PS I give great haircuts and beard trims!

Autres infos...

I walk 3-5 k a day, sometimes more, excellent dog walker! I enjoy writing and books and movies. I am an omni-vert, in that I love a quiet night of stargazing or tipping a pint at the pub equally.
I am of First Nations descent and was raised in a traditional way. By that I mean in a cabin in the woods without plumbing or electric. We fished, hunted, picked berries and chopped wood.
I am a well rounded person for the experience and consider myself pragmatic and self sufficient.
I have traveled North America extensively, from Mexico to Nunavut and BC to the Maritimes, California, Arizona, New Mexico and more. Death Valley is my favourite so far.
This is my first trip abroad and I don't mind the thought of companionship along the way. I completed a 3 month cat sit in an Irish country house in West Cork. It has been challenging and fun, I have learned a lot about myself in the process.
September update. I am now in France having spent a month each in Northern Ireland and Spain.
Oct. Update-I was invited back to my original host in Ireland and would be there now had I not used up all my time in the Republic.
Nov. Available for house sitting in Canada over the winter.
