Matamata - WWOOF job - Ross & Pip [November 26 - December 4]

On Sunday I traveled to Matamata to be picked up by Ross and Pip, the people owning the dairy farm I was going to work on for the next week. It is a wwoof job - willing workers on organic farms. Pip and Ross are great people, who made me feel more welcome then a cat sleeping on a warm, soft bed.

My actual job was chipping weed. But in the afternoon I helped with milking the cows as well. Fun job!
