Description
Scottish/Italian with a background in engineering and renewable energy.
I'm passionate about travelling and discovering new things, and I'm very lucky to be able to take a year off work to explore the world.
I love music, cooking, languages and sports, all things that I see as ways to connect and communicate with others. I also feel strongly about environment and sustainability issues and do my best to preserve or improve what's around me. -

More details about your skills
I have a background in engineering and project management. The best way I can translate this is that I seem to have a knack for solving problems and getting things done.
I also put a lot of energy in what I do.
I also love languages, I'm fluent in four (English, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese), intermediate in French and I recently started learning Scottish Gaelic.
I am a pretty decent cook and I can easily put together a dinner for 10 people. If you like Italian then I'd love to cook for you!
I also love music and play guitar and piano. -

Hiroe and Jos are lovely hosts, caring and generous. They speak perfect English, which meant less of a language barrier, but they also took time to help me improve my basic Japanese.
