Description
Kiaora
My name is Will and I am a gentle, practical person who has grown up in rural New Zealand, at the end of a road on sheep farm. I have lived and worked there for 18 years and am very experienced with animals, farm machinery and odd jobs. I know how to work hard but also enjoy myself and have a laugh. I do love telling and hearing all sorts of stories from all over the world.
