Description

I’m 27 years old, originally from Austria, and I’ve already embarked on an exciting journey in America, where I completed my studies in finance two years ago. Therefore, I know that I'm not getting homesick and already have some experience talking english in everydaylife. Now, I’m eagerly seeking a new adventure in Australia. After spending a couple of years working as an Investment Analyst in a Private Equity firm in Vienna, I’m ready to break out of the hamster wheel and explore something entirely different.

My love for animals has been a constant throughout my life. I started Western riding when I was just five years old, and since then, I’ve always been devoted to caring for my horse, even participating in various competitions. I had the pleasure to get my own quarter horse named "Iceman" when I was six years old and am still lucky to have him around me. He tought me so much, like taking on responsibilities, being fair and obviously getting a good rider.
Further my parents loved dogs, so they always had one when I grew up. Just before I left Austria to go to Australia, little Paula, a bullterrier puppy, moved in which brougt new life in our home. I already miss her.

In Australia, I’ve planned to spend a year immersing myself in both rural and urban settings, getting to know the culture and the people better. I’m thrilled about the opportunity to experience this new chapter, meet new people, and especially to get the time to spend with horses again (because of my busy job lately my hobby suffered a lot and I barely had the time).

Long story short - I’m easygoing, curious, and always ready to tackle any task with enthusiasm. This adventure promises to be both fulfilling and exciting, and I can’t wait to dive in and see where it takes me.

More details about your skills

I would describe myself as an experienced rider. I started riding when I was a child (5 years old), although I would say I'm better in western riding I also got to experience the "classic" riding style. When I went to competitions with my horse I had to take care of him, so am experienced with cleaning the stable, taking care of the needs of the horse, saddle etc. Further I have my own dog at home with my parents, so I know how to take care for dogs and how to take them on walks. As I worked in finance and had a lot of responsibilities for different projects I know how to manage my time properly, learn fast and be willing to take on challenges. I had my own appartment at home so I can clean houses, take care of the garden, have a driving license.
