  • Description

    Hey, I'm a teacher from UK, but before I ever do a 5 day working week I want to use travel to learn, gain stories and understand life. So far I've done soloing in Canada, across Europe and the tip of Africa.

    Most recently I bought a bike and a handpan and went along the Mediterranean coast busking for food and coin, I am keen to use workaway more now as my past experiences have been great

    I like talking a talk a lot about music and movies mainly, or animals. Sometimes I'll meet an expert conversationalist and will just enjoy listening. I like listening too. I want to travel more as when I am home and working I find life escapes me a bit and these moments of seeing the world and meeting people helps me reconnect and give me some vigour.

    my dear friend Matthew who I met while in Canada messaged me out the blue for a roadtrip down the US of A, and we both couldn't be more excited, it'll be great for both of us. it's a budget so I'm hoping I'll get to do some workaway to stop and meet locals in real America!

  • More details about your skills

    I've worked in schools as teacher, assistant, tutorer, chess guy, special needs supporter. I feel i'm food at teaching and supporting and connectimg with young people. Roshi says those that get on with the young will never be tired of living

    I've worked as a labourer on construction sites, I had a brief stint as a gym trainer for young guys, I'm strong enough to do physical activities and like pushing myself in that realm. I like problem solving and learning about ways to fix things physically instead of just giving up and buying a new gadget to replace it

    I've worked in hospitality as bar staff and also as a bingo boy once, so older people love me

    I studied physics and philosophy at university so have some theoretical and sometimes interesting and useless knowledge to share
