Description
Hey, my name is Paul and and I live alone half of the time, when I don't have my two lovely daughters staying with me. I am a traveler myself, who has lived and worked in Thailand and Spain as an English teacher. I have also traveled through Europe and South East Asia. I am an open minded person who is passionate about people and understanding where we all come from a bit more. I am really interested in psychology and coaching, studied a psych degree and plan to do more study. I have worked (and still do from time to time) as a musician (I play a range of instruments, including instruments from North East Thailand and other places) and I've worked in training and education and more recently in mental health. I'd like to meet some new people and have people come stay for a couple days here and there. For me, it's mostly about connecting with decent people, so I wouldn't expect you to do much..just a little bit of gardening and weeding help would be great and maybe clean some windows but definitely nothing too serious. I'm also up for any kind of skills exchange! I live in a lovely older style house in the heart of Armidale. If you are interested, let's see if we can make it work. Cheers, Paul

Help
I am wanting to fix up the gardens so I can grow some herbs and veges. Light house hold duties as well. I really don't expect too much, more just a cultural exchange with good conversation and light chores. Also, if you can teaching me something new that you think might truly benefit my life, then please do!! Maybe you can teach me how to cook some good vegetarian food (Yes! I'm a vegetarian and I normally don't cook meat), or maybe you have some other ideas! I'm all ears!
