I came out On my own when I was 19 and it has been lifechanging for me! The work is great I've learnt a lot but still keep on learning! The lifestyle is great On my time off I just hammer through the outback on my motocross bike for hours ! This is a great opportunity for the right people! Why carry on with the daily struggle when you can make a life for yourself here!
