Description
Hello! I am a teacher from the UK who wants to take some time out to see the world and work along the way. I have always wanted to travel and now have the opportunity to take some time to fulfil my dream. I am really excited to start my adventure and have the opportunity to learn and grow personally and spiritually. I'd love to visit and work in India, Japan, Europe, South East Asia - the list is pretty long! I hope to go away for 1 - 3 months at time to get involved in different projects in different places.

More details about your skills
I am a positive, calm and patient person who is a quick learner. I am a qualified primary school teacher who has worked with all ages, including working with children with special needs. I also have a TEFL qualification (which means I can teach English to speakers of others languages - of all ages). I have experience in meditation for children and have a diploma in Mindfulness for Children. I love to meditate myself and do yoga to keep a healthy and balanced mind and body.
