Yeah... being a jillaroo (austrailian cowgirl) is quite fun... but only for tough ones! :D

Means we wrestled bull- calves and castrated them; spent a day improving pastures (digging out poisonous bushes); fencing - the barbed wire keeps ripping holes in the clothes; slaughtered and butchered a sheep (meat for the week); and of course heaps of horse-back riding.

all of our food was cooked on a camp-fire and tasted pretty good.



I enjoyed the best the cattle mustering. We rode over the hills and moved the cattle to a little paddock where we drafted and wrestled them. The horses went down the steepest hills I have ever seen without the slightest hesitation and we also made our horses swim in a billabong (waterhole).

All in all a very fun and exciting week. I met very nice ppl, too...

after cristmas I am gonna start working on a horse and cattle farm near canberra. Good pay and the family sounds very warm and friendly to me!
