Welcome .....

Welcome to Tree World.

Our goal is to be a premier resource site for the arboricultural industry.

We encourage home owners, professionals and amateurs alike to become involved and contribute to the forum.

Information is strewn across the net and the world for that matter and this can be hub where it meets.

We also made sure we could cater for general conversation and friendship, a place where you can share some thoughts and make some friends with like minded people.

We endeavour to make the information you gain from here of the highest standard and we continually scutinize the validity for your benefit.

Enjoy, and please bookmark this site in to your browser, and grow with us.

Oh, by the way, I'm an Aussie, here's a short ad for tourism (2006) saying holiday here 3.6mb WMV http://www.palmtreeservices.com.au/v...hellareyou.wmv

And this is perhaps the video I found that covers most Aussie slang.
YouTube - Some Aussie slang you might find interesting

And all of this free. Yes.

Congrats Ekka. I hope that your site will become the ???????? of the southern hemisphere and that you don't need too much moderating skills.

Oldtimer · 25th January 2007, 02:33 PM

EKKA, Nice new site. I hope we get new ideas and a lot of new friends from this site. I have been looking your Educational Videos for a couple of years now and I am very impressed with the quality of your Tree Work and your Educational Efforts to the Arborist Community. Wish you a lot of success with the site and in your regular tree business. Hope to be able to meet you one of these days.

Looking good!

Ekka · 25th January 2007, 10:18 PM

For instance guys. I have had Jim from NZ come and stay.

Mike from Alaska who I still stay intouch with and would like to hang out with again ... I still miss that bugger.

Nathan from Texas Germany, we did a walk in the rainforest ... both of us had sore legs for a few days but it was worth it.

So keep each other in mind when looking at your itineries.

Hey Guys,

I am Iorek and I am an arborist from Sweden, I am currently based in Ankara with my wife's work.

Just found this site, looks like it is a new site? Yes?

I am studying for my european treeworkers certificate, I thought this site might have other europeans?

Anyone here done this certificate?

If you have, what is the best way to approach it?

Iorek

a_lopa · 28th January 2007, 04:05 AM

Hi Iorek,im an Australian tree worker,i have no idea on european standards but i will ask a guy who had worked extensivly in Germany who has worked for me about this.

Enjoy your time on this board its new but its going be around for long time.

How is turkey?

Iorek · 28th January 2007, 04:17 AM

Turkey is a culture shock coming fron Malmo, Sweden.

Being on the border with Iraq always makes you worried, but the Kurds in the north of Iraq keep a natural boundary.

The food is tasty

a_lopa · 28th January 2007, 04:20 AM

Turkish food sure is tasty,its fairly cheap living in Turkey,Yes?

Iorek · 28th January 2007, 04:32 AM

Hi

Do you have any pictures you can post, be interesting to see what the landscape and trees are like.

What sort of work do you do there?

Me, I'm a little bit of a lady's man and taking it easy.

a_lopa · 28th January 2007, 04:51 AM

Still ion New York Mick?or away at the moment?

Iorek · 28th January 2007, 04:59 AM

I will post my photos for you.

Sweden is my home, Turkey is just one of the many places i have to travel with because of my wife's work as a diplomat's secretary.

It is only fo 1 more year, then we are back in Malmo

Its all expenses payed so we have good residences.

Sweden is the most interesting country.

Maybe possibly homesick

Iorek · 28th January 2007, 05:03 AM

We have to move around with the Swedish diplomatic commision at short notice. so it can be tiring to find new friends.
