  • Description

    Hello. I come from a small village in the Forest of Dean, England. I enjoy hiking, camping and being outdoors in general especially in the company of others. I graduated from the University of Manchester with a degree in Religion and Anthropology. Since I was young I have been fascinated by Mongolian history and the nomadic lifestyle and this degree allowed me to pursue this interest. I am in the processing of completing a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) and am eager to take any opportunity to gain experience and expand my teaching skills.

    I am open to any kind of work. Labouring, cleaning, gardening - I will try my hand at anything.

    More details about my language interests
    For the past 2 years I have been working in an environment with lots of people from eastern/central Europe (Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic) who have been able to speak different levels of English. I have enjoyed being able to help my colleagues fill out paperwork or offer advice when they have struggled with the language. As well as going to different supermarkets, trying different foods and learning a few phrases in different languages. I am currently completing a TEFL and hope that would be able to put some of what I have learned about teaching English into practice as well as gain some experinece.

  • What else ...

    I am a devout football fan and love to play (with my limited ability) as well as watch any level of football.

    I have always enjoyed board games or card games and I think they are great way to learn about new people and create friendships.

    I love being outdoors so any kind of walking, hiking or outdoor based activity/work I will be enthusiastic about.
