Travelling
Description
Hi! My name is Ben, and I'm from the UK, although I grew up in France.
I've did quite a bit of travelling when I was younger, before settling down and getting a real job. However I decided recently that the traditional path may not be for me after all, and am therefore hitting the road once again and trying to discover what else is out there.
I'm quite practical minded and am always happy as long as I have something to do. I enjoy being outside a lot, and spend a lot of time going on hikes and exploring. I also have a love for foreign languages, which I have studied on and off for years, History, reading, being with animals, and spending time with other people and learning from different cultures.
I'm quite active and work out a fair amount. I ran a marathon and a half marathon this year, and am now doing a bit of training for a 10k run in October.
I am currently looking to try out different things and explore more aspects of life, so am happy doing any kind of work, as long as it appears meaningful.
Hoping to hear from you very soon!Interests

More details about your skills
I spent my weekends helping my dad with building our house (it was a giant cow shed when he bought it), and became quite good at handy work in general. I'm also very good with animals, having had a number of them around when I was younger.
I am also very good with children. Though I don't have any of my own, I have looked after my sister's ones every so often for a number of years, easily becoming the favourite uncle.
I am also good at foreign languages and general communication, and like to think that I have good people skills.Age
