  • Description

    I'm a young and sporty guy who loves nature and making the most of my free time. In winter, you'll find me skiing or snowboarding – I’ve worked on the slopes for three seasons and absolutely love it.

    Currently, I work as a salesman for sportswear and bikes. Over the last three summers, I worked in a bike shop, and that’s where my passion for bikes really took off.

    Now, I'm setting off to travel the world by bike. Due to some past accidents, I have an injury that makes it hard to cycle for long stretches at once – that's why I’m looking to help out and stay with others along the way.

    Oh, and I used to live with my seven best friends in a big, old restaurant – I really enjoy being around people!
    My mum is Swiss and my dad is from Scotland, so I grew up bilingual and speak both languages fluently.

    Right now, I’m on a bike trip from Switzerland threw Europa and making the best time out of it.

    Thanks for reading an maybe we will meet some time...

  • More details about your skills

    I'm free to do anything and always give my best. I enjoy working in and with nature and people – that's why I spent several seasons on the slopes as a park shaper and park designer. Creating and maintaining snow parks was both creative and physical work, and I loved it.

    For my civilian service (military substitute), I worked on a farm supporting retired people, which turned out to be a meaningful and enjoyable experience for me.

    While working at a bike shop, I learned a lot about bike mechanics and repairs. I enjoy fixing things, reusing materials, and try to avoid throwing stuff away whenever possible.

    I’m used to standing and being active all day long – and I don’t plan on changing that. I like physical work and staying on my feet.

    I’ve also worked behind a bar and gained experience in hospitality through my gymnastics club and at a container bar I helped run for a while.

  • What else ...

    I’m into DIY projects and enjoy building or fixing things , especially when it involves giving old stuff a second life.
    I also love to cook and eat alot all over the day.

    I really enjoy the balance of active outdoor life and slow, shared moments – whether it’s biking a mountain or just chatting over a good coffee in the morning.
