An outdoor lifestyle in the High Country is the right mix for Gini Eynstone, operations and maintenance trainee at East Gippsland Water in Omeo.
Gini made the move from Bairnsdale earlier this year and works from East Gippsland Water’s Omeo depot.
She has an affinity with remote East Gippsland, spending her younger years in “ghost town” Cassilis.
Gini had earlier completed a Diploma in Conservation Management, so knew she eventually wanted to work out in the elements.
“Living and working in town, I made the decision to move back to the country where I spent a lot of my childhood,” she said.
“My background is retail management, but I’ve always wanted to work outside, and I love it up here.”
