Travel information

I am currently

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 disability 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 fixingn 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.

Age

27

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 something less important in life where I can learn.
