  • Description

    Hi,
    My name is Karl. I am both a citizen of USA and Australia. I love travel, meeting new people, learning new skills and creating a happy working environment.
    I have done quite a lot of travel while working.
    In Australia I work as a captain on luxury sailing yachts on the Great Barrier Reef. In far north Queensland I work as a dive instructor and marine biologist on remote live aboard dive vessels. In the United Kingdom I teach maths, physics and Chemistry at high schools. In Taiwan I taught primary school children English at a Taiwanese primary school.In the United States I have worked at Hervey Wagon wheel casino as a keno writer and in New Hampshire I worked at a ski resort as a lifty.
    I have also helped build houses and painted many rooms.
    In essence, I like to explore the world through work. It is the work with others in various locations and worksites that brings me happiness.

  • More details about your skills

    My name is Karl.
    First and foremost: I like making people happy.
    That means that no matter what job I do, I help create a positive working environment.
    I enjoy the challenge of a new job. Consequently I have done a lot of different roles. In most instances I ask to start off where I learn a job at the coalface ( where I actually do the physical work) but I am usually promoted to a position that demands skill and responsibility . So for instance I started work as a deckie on sailing yachts but now am a captain.I learned how to dive and now I am a dive instructor. I am a maths and science school t teacher. I work as a marine engineer on yachts. I help build houses.
    I am a quick learner, am physically fit and can turn my hand to most projects.
    I prefer to be outdoors in active positions.
