>>2064625I've been working on a dairy and beef farm in Australia for around 3.5 years and really enjoy it. I had no experience farming before which is both a blessing and a curse. Young people run away from it when they've been raised with it, but it leaves an opening for people like me to move in.
I've had better paying jobs but work a lot more hours so the time flies by. Also the area is prettier and living expenses are lower, so it's pretty easy to live like a king if you lower your social expectations. Like instead of eating out and going to shows you have to develop an interest in cooking and gardening, watching birds instead of netflix etc.
My advice is just do it if you're interested. It sounds like bullshit to "Just do it", but I Just Did It by holidaying in a rural area and asking locals for work. Pick a direction and drive, find a spot you like, and go to a bar/pub on a friday night and ask if anyone needs a farmhand
