About me

I love animals and nature as well as socialising with good people. I am interested in many other things like traveling, going out, reading, culture and being creative...

Preferred location

I am very interested in helping with animals (in particular wildlife and horses) in Australia (somewhere between Brisbane and Sydney roughly)!

Skills

Dear hosts,
I am very interested in helping with animals (in particular wildlife and horses) in Australia (somewhere between Brisbane and Sydney roughly)! I am a 41 year old German, young at heart, love animals, nature, mixing with new people, traveling and especially OZ (it is my 9th(?) visit)... grin I enjoyed a year 'work and travel' Down Under in 2006/2007 when I gained experience in different jobs (race horse stud, volunteer 'zoo keeper' and sales person at Taronga Zoo, employee at an opal shop in Sydney, station hand in the Kimberlies, hostess on a boat and more).
Too old for a 'work and travel visa' meanwhile I've decided to be a volunteer on this trip. I am a qualified teacher but work as a flight attendant for Lufthansa right now. I am not fussy with food and don't smoke. I think I am an easy going, extroverted person who is comfortable with 'new faces and places'.
I spent a lot of time with horses as a teenager (and twen) because it was my major interest. I'm getting back into it now (riding and looking after the horses... at my 2 previous volunteer places). I can not ride very young or difficult horses but am happy to learn new 'things' and gain more experience.
Could my boyfriend (without horse experience) who will probably join me Down Under soon work at your place,too?
And would it be possible to come within the next roughly 3 weeks and if so can you already tell when (not)?
Please excuse the number of questions!
I would be happy to hear from you!
Kind regards,
Angelika Dembek
