Hey,
I am Lesley or better known as Lesse. :) I am 25 years old and I am studying at the University of Hildesheim to become a sports teacher. I am about to finish my master's degree and would like to spend some time abroad to improve my English and to have a good time and cultural experiences. As you can probably guess, I am a rather active person who enjoys physical activities and being outdoors. However, I also enjoy switching off in the evenings and having a wine or beer in good company. I'm a huge football fan, but I don't play myself any more, preferring to go to the gym instead. During my studies, I volunteered for several years in a deprived school, where I was able to gain many wonderful (and exhausting) experiences with children from difficult social backgrounds. I have been living in a shared flat with 2 women for 5 years, which works very well and I can generally say that I have a great need for harmony and therefore get on very well with almost everyone. I am sometimes a bit introverted, but when I have warmed up, I am very humorous, warm and sometimes a bit silly. :)Interests

TeachingMore details about your skills
Well, I have been successfully living on my own for 6 years now and can therefore say that I am familiar with household tasks such as cleaning, doing the laundry and cooking. As I come from the village, I grew up with gardening, but I wouldn't say I'm an expert in this field. But I can easily cope with classic gardening tasks and I am open to everything new and learn quickly. I worked in a primary school for several years and worked with difficult children. This year I worked at a secondary school for 5 months teaching PE and English. I love animals of all kinds and grew up with them. In my shared flat we had a dog for 2 years which I loved more than anything.
