PERSONAL EXPERIENCE & MOTIVATION
While I don’t have formal farm experience yet, I’ve always felt drawn to working with animals and living a rural lifestyle. I’m used to physical work, fixing machinery, and working independently — all of which I believe are valuable on a ranch. I’m passionate about making this career change and eager to learn everything I can from experienced farmers and caretakers.
AVAILABILITY
Available to relocate and start working immediately or upon request. Open to international farm and ranch opportunities, especially in English-speaking countries.
