When I got home in September from backpacking around Europe, I was strapped for cash, didn’t have any work and was wondering how I was going to fund the next adventure.
I wasn’t keen to jump straight back into fabricating or welding but didn’t know what else to do.
Luck had it, with some help from my brother in law. I managed to line up a day of work, dogging a crane for HABITAT Tree Works.
Now works hardly work! With an awesome boss and top crew of blokes to work with, it definitely makes getting up in the morning much easier.
I had only been with HABITAT for about two months before making the call to make this dream a reality. Telling your boss your not coming back after Christmas isn’t an easy thing to do. John was all for it and showed nothing but support from the word go.
Getting behind me to document the whole experience and put myself out there to be known by the public.
HABITAT Tree Works have been kind enough to sponsor me with my GPS SPOT device.
The SPOT is a small pod, as big as the palm of your hand. It has four options of contact, to inform up to ten email addresses of your precise GPS location. The four options being, OK, HELP, SOS and personal message.
This device could be a lifesaver if things get messy off the beaten track!
I have to say a massive thank you to the HABITAT crew, and a extra special thank you to John and Manuela for getting behind me on this adventure. With people like you it helps things along just that little bit easier!
I hope everyone has a very merry Christmas and a safe New Year! Ride and drive carefully.
Billy.
