  Description

  Hi! I'm Sean. I am from the Cowichan Valley on Vancouver Island. I love to travel and I really enjoy meeting new people from different cultures and learning new languages. I am very kind, easy going and accommodating. I like to make new friends from around the world and exchange ideas and knowledge.
  My main objective is learn new languages and exchange cultural experiences such as different types of food or customs and traditions.
  I can speak Spanish and Portugues at a basic level, and I am very interested to have someone help me to learn Mandarin.
  I love music of all types and I like to play guitar and drums, so I appreciate other musicians.
  I am self-employed and I have a range of knowledge and experience and I really like exchanging ideas and skills.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I am interested in teaching auto painting and anything related to automobiles, as that is a passion of mine. I am also interested in learning and exchanging language skills and cultural knowledge.
  Outdoor activities and hiking are also one of my interests to engage in.

  Help

  Language exchange is my top priority.
  General house and yard maintenance, household cleaning.
  I like to work on small construction and mechanical projects and I do auto body repairs and painting as a business, so there's always something to do or learn!
  I can teach automotive painting/refinishing and some mechanical skills.
  I love to teach and I am very patient to help people learn.
