I've just come back from 10 months in Central America, and now I'm moving to the south of France for a new job. I like to try new things, meet new people and explore new cultures!

I've tried my hand at a lot of things—from IT and medical to teaching and cooking—and I am always challenging myself to learn new things, as well as trying to share what I've learnt with others. I'm a big language geek, and besides the languages listed below I've also dabbled in Serbian, Mandarin and Italian in the past.
I've lived all my life in the UK, but I spent the last year travelling in Central America and it was fantastic: I saw some amazing places, met some great people and had some unforgettable experiences. Now I'm settling down for a while but still wanted to scratch that travelling itch, so I've got a new job in a south of France.Interesses
