Beschreibung
I am Con from Melbourne Australia
I am a seasoned traveller who enjoys meeting people and has plenty of experience working within communities around the world. Places where I have helped or coordinated projects include India, Thailand and within the Indigenous communities of Australia.
Over many years, I have also worked with groups associated with disabled youth and adults, assisting either in the field or as a coordinator.
I am a qualified teacher with many years’ experience, teaching IT, Mathematics and English to young adults.
I have a resourceful mind and will work hard on any task I am given, in my own company or as part of a team. I am motivated and can use my initiative in seeing what needs doing.
I keep myself very fit and regard myself as an innovative cook, comfortable in a vegetarian and non-vegetarian environment.
I am a native English speaker who speaks Greek and conversational Spanish.

He did all that we set him to do and more. Our neighbours also thought he was the bees knees. We were lucky not to have him poached while he was here. We… read more
