Description
Hello and welcome to my profile.
I'm currently looking to find a location around the Tolmin area of Slovenia where I can help you look after and maintain a property that perhaps you don't have time to.
I would love to find a place in nature where I can work and stay. 🙏
I've been working away since February last year, after deciding to leave my current career in the UK and move to Slovenia to start a new, more fulfilling life.
Tolmin and the surrounding areas is where I feel 'at home' so I'm looking to build a life here.
I love the outdoors and would love to find a host/location where I can make the most of this beautiful part of nature.
I'm a hard worker and have many skills such as working with trees (felling, processing), growing vegetables, land maintenance, painting and all DIY tasks. I love working both with others and on my own but no matter the job, I always try to do my very best.
Animals are awesome so love spending time walking dogs or looking after other pets or animals you may have.
