    UK-born coach driven by discipline, travel, and curiosity. I love languages, fitness, reading books and connecting with people from different backgrounds and cultures.

  • Description

    I’m Ben, a UK-born coach, writer, and explorer. For me, growth only happens when you step outside your comfort zone. After spending four years living in Spain, I realized I thrive on immersion—learning the language, understanding the culture, and becoming part of the local rhythm. I am now traveling to build a life defined by curiosity and connection, with a special love for Greece and the wider Mediterranean.

    What I Can Do For You (Physical & Practical Skills) I am not just looking for a holiday; I am looking to work. As a fitness coach and calisthenics athlete, I am physically strong, disciplined, and energetic. I enjoy manual labor and the satisfaction of a job well done.

    Farm & Land Work: I have volunteered on farms before, specifically harvesting olives in Greece, so I understand the demands of agricultural work. I am happy to help with gardening, landscaping, and heavy lifting.

    Construction & Maintenance: I am handy and adaptable, eager to assist with renovation projects, painting, or general repairs.

    Animal Care: I am comfortable and kind around animals and happy to take on feeding or care duties.

    Teaching & Professional Skills Beyond physical work, I am a Certified TEFL Teacher. If you are looking for help improving your or your children’s English, I can offer professional, structured support. I also run my own online fitness business and am writing a book. This means I am financially independent, organized, and respectful of your personal space. I’m disciplined with my time—I work hard for my hosts, and I stay grounded through my own daily training routines.

    Why I’m Here I’m at my best when I’m learning—whether that’s mastering a new recipe, picking up a new language, or hearing your stories. I’m looking for hosts who are passionate about what they do and are willing to share their culture. If you need someone who is independent, strong, and genuinely enthusiastic about helping out, I’d love to hear from you.
