I am looking for a working student to live in here at our farm in Australia for 6 months or so – at least long enough to learn some valuable skills and to be of use to me too.
I am looking for a saint. 🙂
I am looking for someone who is enjoyable to be around, who has no lousy habits, someone who will live with us as part of the family, someone who will work hard on general farm/house/office duties for 4 hours a day in return for board and keep, someone who enjoys working by themselves peacefully often, someone who cleans up after themselves, and generally makes themselves agreeable.
I am looking for a person who will enjoy working outside in the vegetable garden, in the paddocks and with the animals in all kinds of circumstances – horses, dogs, cats, chickens mainly – someone who is reliable to look after the animals when we go away.
I am looking for a rider who my horses will enjoy and vice versa – someone with a gentle approach who can scratch manes, wash butts, learn to trim horses feet and lay in the sunshine appreciating my wonderful herd and maybe even be a riding video star.
In return, I undertake to teach this paragon of virtue horsemanship skills and riding that will blow their mind with excitement.
For privacy, this person will have a nice caravan to live in just outside the house, will eat meals with us and generally be part of the family.
Contact me jennyatjennypearcedotcomdotau for more information.

Hi Jenny

Jenny says
Sure is! I had been talking to an English girl, but haven’t had a reply to my last email weeks ago…

Where were you 15 years ago. It would have been a dream come true for me.
Jenny says
Hopefully it will be a dream come true for someone else too…

What a wonderful opportunity for someone Jenny . . . if I had the right circumstances (ie . . . younger body, fewer creatures, no darling husband etc etc) then I would be your girl!!
