Description
I’m 48 (however don’t act or feel that age) I’m originally from Liverpool and love to travel. I did my first work away in Sep 2019 in Crete, I absolutely loved it and since have made it a bit of a lifestyle choice!
I am really adaptable, I have a marine engineering background as well as project management.
I am a qualified photographer.
I have also managed a pub.
I’m not shy of hard work, have picked and packed fruit whilst travelling and have also worked in hostels.
I’ve been to every continent in the world (helped by a military career) and love love love an adventure :)
Since 2022 I have also sailed over 20,000 miles. -

What else ...
I’m literally up for trying anything. My first work away was in a cafe and farm, I’m definitely happier hands on in the field but also like putting myself out my comfort zone.
I was also a professional photographer for 8 years and I am travelling with camera kit. -
