climbers needed in sweeden

[Mark Bolam]

It does sound great, but the cold would be a big downside for my delicate little poorly circulating fingers! And the hot girls in pirate boots might be a downside for my wife....

 

Try and post some pics if you can mate.

pics will have to wait for a bit - i've lost my usb cable for my camera!! Yep thats right no chipping although we do have a chipper, it rarely gets used! my ears have never been so good! i climb mostly pine, oaks and the biggest birches i've ever seen! as for the cold, well you can always go to Goa till spring! just starting to think about using gloves to climb in, but its going to be fun when it gets to -20 and the sweat can freeze on your face!

would a college student with tickets on a placement year be sutible for this? or has someone already been found?

wanted lots of climbers for upcomming projects covering the whole of sweeden working on rail contracts which covers both forest work and work in private gardens, city contracts and other private arb work.

 

I have been with this company for a month and they have made my move to sweeden as smooth as possible and are genuinly concerened with the welfare of all their workers.

 

Yes its going to be a bit chilly over the winter but there is the summer to look forward to as well as crashing around the woods on a snow mobile and treking up to lap land to do some snow boarding and check out the northern lights.

 

Anyone interested should e-mail [email protected]

 

or if you have any other questions send me a private message and i'll try and reply asap although my internet access is a little sporadic at best.

just been going back on some of the old posts and was wandering if they still needed climbers out there ?
