Travel information

I am currently

Description

I am 25, half Belgian-French, moved to the UK to go study and stayed there after for work. Dreaming to travelling for a while, annd immersing myself in a new culture to explore. I have just quit my job to do just that.

I am an expressive, thoughtful, and enthusiastic person. Led by curiosity, I love learning and trying new things and connect with new people! I love to spend my free time in the outdoors (that being running, hiking, climbing ..) or doing some cooking or doing one of my arty projects.

More details about your skills

I am a design engineer of background so giving me a wide set of skills from this, including problem solving, generating ideas and getting hands-on to create prototype and try stuff. I am proactive, a keen learner and always curious and wanting to immerse myself. I love to cook and worked in a restaurant for a few months, both in the kitchen and helped out in the waitressing when needed.
I am physically fit and strong (I climb, run, cycle and hike) and have been training for a mountaineering trip the last few months so I’m at my best physically. I therefore happy to tackle physical jobs.

I speak 4 languages (French, English, Dutch and German) and I am currently seeking to improve my Spanish which is sufficient to communicate but would like to be fluent..

I sketch a lot and can draw. I love creative work and would love to put them in practice and learn new skills along the way. Recently been doing some papier-mâché work and learned crochet.
