Travelling
My next destination:
Scotland, United Kingdom - from Apr 2024 until Oct 2024 View allDescription
I was born in the U.K. Moved to Ireland 29 years ago. I am sticking close to home for this year and next hoping to travel further in the future. What motivates me and brings me happiness? Where to start this is not in order of preference!! Adventure, nature, cold water, tai chi, cycling, knitting, dogs, family, friends, fittnes, health, good food and deep breathing. These are things I do on a regular basis which I do believe contributes to my well being.
I am travelling with my wee border terrier Frank, who is now 16, too old to chase sheep, he is a quiet dog and a great companion.Interests

I have been a teacher of Maths and Personal Development for 29 years, recently taken early retirement. For the past 6/7 years I have volunteered in a retreat centre in Scotland during the holiday period, cooking, cleaning, office work and looking after guests and day visitors. My children are all grown up now but have 40 years experience in childcare! I am your perfect house sitter, carer, teacher but also willing to take on new skills.
