Description
I'm currently taking a gap year before I head off to university. I want to spend this time outdoors experiencing nature and travelling to new countries. I am an RYA qualified sailing instructor and have been sailing competitively for many years, enjoying every second of my time on the water. I also play the Bagpipes and enjoy camping, surfing and hiking in my free time.

More details about your skills
I am a qualified RYA Dinghy Instructor with experience teaching both children and adults, and have also been competitively sailing for many years. This has given me the ability to stay calm in stressful situations, plan and run sessions and a good understanding of the weather and wind.
I have also worked for a mechanic, meaning I have practical skills in engine maintenance and repairs, as well as experience on broader DIY projects from building a shed to renovating a bathroom.
I have completed Gold, Silver and Bronze for the Duke of Edinburgh Award, am fit and strong and willing to do physical work for long hours.Age
