wilderness advice

[thomas_3rd]

so just got my results through from my arboriculture c+g, three distinctions and two merits! good weekend of celebrations i think. got my four cs comming up in newquay soon, but after that i have an idea to go to some wilderness to work, been in london too long now and miss the open country side.

 

anyone know of remote places to go and work?scandinavia, canada or wales? any other courses i should consider? im happy to do any form of arb or forestry, just as long as it envoles getting away from london and seeing something beautiful,with nice hard graft in between

 

any advise/ideas would be very welcome.

I know a guy who was building a community of tree houses in Costa Rica. I worked for him years ago. I was in touch with him last year and there was work. I could give you his email address and you could give him a try. Don't expect more than food and accomodation though.

is this called finca bellavista? have been looking at their web page for ages, amazing stuff their doing,beautiful tree houses. im not a tropical man, thats the only thing, wanting to go somewhere colder rather than hot, surprising i know. cheers tho buddy, food and board is a good idea, hadnt though bout that kinda stuff

Thats the place. I know of a few other places like that around the world but they all in stinking hot jungles, no good if your into the cold. I have seen jobs going in Alaska before with Tall Trees. I had a climber who worked for them in Canada and he loved it.

 

Good luck
