Descrição

Hi! I'm Joshua, I've come from Melbourne, Australia to travel Europe and and learn about how different people live! I'm not young but that's a good thing because I'm very easy going and I know the value of working hard.
This is my second round of workaway, previously doing it during 2016/17 and I've decided to take a few months career break. I am a qualified carpenter but also have experience as a farm hand, mechanics and generally labouring.
Hope to meet you soon! At the moment I have built an interest in traditional round timber framing and sustainable building practices, as well as passive house building. Not to mention I love animals and happy to get into some dirty work as long as there is a shower at the end of the day. Laid back, not a picky eater, I do enjoy a beer or two being an Aussie. Looking forward to seeing if we are a good fit.
