Description

Hi there!

I've been working worldwide for 10 years as ships's engineer in dredging and offshore when I decided I don't want to stay that long at sea anymore and start working ashore as an operator in a power plant. It was nice to learn new processes and get the job done with my collegues but find out that after a while it became routine and need some new inspiration! One thing in particulair I missed the most in these industrial environments was a more natural surrounding. Therefore I would like to find a place where you live or work with, or at least more close to nature!

As a 'hobby' i try to sense where the economy and markets are going to and took the chance when i thought we're in a housingmarket-bubble. I got rid of my stuff and jumped on my motorcycle and travelled through europe and ended up in Greece. I was planning to wait for the spring to continue to drive through Turkey etcetc. It was Athens where I got inspired to travel light, got rid of the bike with gear and took a flight to South-East asia. I loved travelling around for over 6 months but now i'm looking for something more forfilling then 'just' travel. Asia was mindblowing so far and like to experience much more of it!

What friends say about me; Hard working, empathic, social and impulsive.

Would be cool to learn some new skills while being in an inspiring environment.

Looking forward to join forces somewhere around the globe!

Kind regards,
Bob

More details about your skills

As a previous ships engineer you basically need to be able to operate and repair anything on board ships and therefore you have to have certain skills and a creative mind to get the ships safely to their destination. But I prefer other work like chainsawing/cutting wood or sanding/painting or renovating stuff as well...

I quit my job i used to do because i want to do something else.

I have a broad interest with no specific expectations!
