Description

Hi, I am a primary teacher from New Zealand. I have volunteered and taught over in South Africa in 2017 and Samoa in 2015. I have loved teaching for the past few years, but have taken two years off to travel and work overseas.

I have spent the past two years working on ranches in the States and Canada. I am currently in Alberta, Canada working on a ranch. I am interested in exploring more of Canada and America, particularly Yukon, Alaska and the Rocky Mountains. I am interested in working at ranches or at stables with horses, however I am open to other opportunities too.

I am an active, energetic and positive person and enjoy trying new things. I am reliable and a hard worker. I enjoy new adventures and experiencing and emerging myself in new cultures. I am passionate about helping others, learning new cultures, music, sports, animals and nature. I am open-minded, reliable and always willing to learn new things.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

Growing up, I did lots of camping and hiking with my family and also helped run a lot of camps for youth and kids. I love being active and being out in nature. I grew up in the country and have worked on a farm throughout high school, getting cattle in, milking them and helping with calving and birthing of goats and calves. I know how to drive a quad bike. I enjoy animals and can ride horses.

I have spent the past two years working on ranches in America and Canada where I fixed fences, helped with harvest - raking, baling, stacking, emptying grain into bins using augers and other machinery, moved irrigation pipes, cattle round ups, sorting cattle, winter calving - doctoring sick calves and tagging calves. I also rode a variety of different horses. I also have spent some time being a trail guide at a ranch and stable.

I have played sports since a young age, with my main focus on netball, but enjoy all sports. I enjoy music and can play the piano and bass guitar. I get on well with people of all ages and cultures. I like to look at the bright side of things and love to live life to the full. I am fit, open-minded and reliable and am always willing to learn new things. I love travelling and have been to Europe, California, the Islands, Africa and Australia. I am organised and happy to live out in nature and work hard.

I spent just under 3 weeks here while Jen and KC were away. I arrived the day before they left and they instantly made me feel so at home and comfortable. They clearly explained the routine of looking after the animals. I did the farm chores in the morning and evening and had the rest of the day to explore or do my own independent work. I loved my … read more

I had the best time! This was my first Workaway and I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience. It will definitely be hard to beat.
The horses at the stables are all beautiful and if you stay long enough you really get to know each of them. I really enjoyed meeting so many new people on the rides. I loved being at the stables so much … read more

Sara was such a huge help on the ranch! She brought so many skills to bear, worked her tail off, and was overall such a great person to be around. It’s such a treat to have someone who is as knowledgeable and conscientious about animals as she is, yet still very open minded to instruction regarding how we like to operate. We absolutely loved … read more

The Prestons were so hospitable and made me feel at home right away. While I was there, the work varied from rock picking, moving cattle on horseback, riding atvs, fixing fences, cleaning cabins, moving irrigation pipes and branding and tagging calves. Special mention to Mo, who was such a gorgeous horse to ride. The food was plentiful and Bonnie … read more
