  • Description

    Hey, I'm a teacher from UK, but before I start that hellish job (lovely job really) I want to see more of the world and try varying jobs, so I can bring these experiences to class and share worldy ideas with my students

    Recently bought a bike and a handpan and went along the Mediterranean busking for generous italians and frenchies. Had a great time, had to return for family issues but am excited to get back to Europe

    I like to solve problems using my body and mind, trying to treat the world with care and not rush things. I like to work with animals, and being a teacher means I get on well children and enjoy seeing their way of living and seeing the world.

    At the moment my goal is to go to mime college in paris, and find a workaway that accomodates evening classes. At least I hope it's a mime college and not just someone pretending to have a college !
