Description
I love travelling and meeting new people, and also love creating beautiful spaces and places. I am a middle aged man who is travelling the world before I settle down somewhere to develop my own sustainable lifestyle. I have Irish and New Zealand passports. I have owned a small farm in New Zealand for 16 years, with horses, cows, sheep, goats, pigs, alpacas, cats, dogs, rabbits, and guinea pigs. I have had a heritage fruit tree nursery, which involved grafting trees, and created a 200+ variety heritage fruit community orchard. I have built houses and additions to houses, and renovated bathrooms, kitchens, built brick walls, paths, fences, gates, laid tiles, done simple electrical work, and created and maintained large gardens. There is not much on a property that I won't do. I also ran a top rated Airbnb in NZ from 2011 to 2018.
