Hailing from a dairy farm in Foulkesmills, Co Wexford, Katie moved to Australia earlier this year to see what life was like on the other side of the world.
She recently finished working on the Cheelonga Farm owned by the Graham family, where they milk 1,200 cows consisting of Brown Swiss, Holsteins, Jerseys and crossbreeds, managing 2,000 acres across three different farms.
