What do you do?
Well, I call myself an alpaca shepherd but not everybody has heard of one, or has much idea what that means. I appeared briefly on the Wynne Evans show on BBC Radio Wales on his GuessWork spot (2hr:10s mark)- where he asks questions to try to guess what the person’s job is. All he knew was, I was Steve from Swansea. Listen to the episode to see how he got on.
Morning or evening?
I also spoke with Rita Soares of Campo Verde Alpacas near Melbourne, Australia so we had to cope with time-zones being upside down – she has just moved house and farm, with the alpacas. I caught up with her to see how she got started with alpacas and how the move went.

Good learning on preparation and starting early and paying attention to detail. Friendly, helpful alpaca owners make a massive difference too.
