Travel information

I am currently

Description

Currently I’m on a long journey, travelling on a trip from Ho Chi Minh to London without taking any flights (or as little as physically possible). On the way I want to be able to meet people from other cultures, who live completely different lives from my own, and learn about them, how they live, and see some of the amazing landscapes of the places I go, and hopefully have some life changing experiences. I love to explore, meet people that change my perspective on life and give me the opportunity to grow as an individual.

More details about my language interests
Although I have no formal training in teaching English, as a native speaker I would be more than happy and confident in passing on my skills to others.

More details about your skills

I have a Bachelor’s Degree in mathematics. I’m also currently learning and at a conversational level in French. I love exercise, especially bouldering/rock climbing and martial arts, although months of travel have meant I’m a bit out of shape, though I still consider myself quite athletic. I have good skills with children as I coached tennis to kids from the age of 4 to 11 every summer for 4 years and coached rugby to kids from the age of 3 to 6 for 2 months a year for 3 years. I also have experience in gardening and manual labour jobs, having worked on construction sites for 6 months and worked as a gardener for another 6 months.

What else ...

I love sports of most kinds, anything that gets the blood pumping and allows me to engage in friendly competition. I also love to read, be it fantasy, history or other non-fiction. My other hobbies include meditation, spending time outdoors and chess (though I haven’t played in a while). I’m also a big animal lover so spending time with them, playing or taking care of them is a big passion of mine.
