Description

Hey! I'm a laid-back, very active woman and I'm a mum to a teen son, and when I’m not helping run Capoeira classes for kids, you’ll find me managing and living at my lively sports bar. I have been in the hospitality trade for over 15 years. However I’m passionate about wildlife and animals—I've got a degree in Wildlife Biology and Animal Behaviour tucked under my belt. I have travelled extensively and enjoy living out of a rucksack so to speak. . I have an expedition leadership qualification i obtained on a trip to Madagascar, I have stayed in Mongolia conducting research twice, lived in Hong Kong and much more. I have just spent a month in Brazil and wish to take my son, who would thrive in that environment. We are looking for an opportunity to explore life a little and work together. My son is a compassionate and funny boy who is polite and helpful.

While we don’t eat animal products, we are totally cool if you do (we made our decisions to do this separately)
I have a range of different skills and im a quick learner - i can elaborate more on this
I thrive on staying busy and being part of things—I’m sociable, love meeting people, but also value my own space. Big fan of the outdoors and connecting with nature. I'm also an environmentalist at heart and love exploring different cultures.

My son is a funny, warm and goofy teen. he loves animals, history and politics and can be found protesting on the streets sometimes. Struggling to fit in at school and waaay to into the screen and gaming culture here in the UK. We want to show him life experience and the real world. He is a good kid and will thrive in the outdoors, with responsibility and company. He just needs a chance to experience it!
