Description

Hi, I have the bug for travelling, meeting new people and proper hard work. I had to come home when coroanvirus got in the way of my placement year teaching English in Spain but not before I had fallen in love with both teaching and Spain. I am an old soul at heart, still have a Walkman radio and truly love being in the remote beautiful places, going hiking and reading a good book up a tree.

I come from a small town in North West England called Lancaster which I aim to spend as little time as possible in. I really care passionately about opening yourself up to experiences and adventures as some of the best times in my life have been taking the plunge and immersing myself in a new environment.

I am willing to learn new things and really want to develop my skills in DIY, general renovations. I am a qualified CELTA teacher and have taught in Russia, Spain, Italy, Ireland and back here in the UK and absolutely love the freedom my job allows me to see new places and get involved in the local culture. I am moving to Spain in mid October and am currently waiting on the go ahead with my visa so thought it was the perfect opportunity to explore my home country a bit more.

I've had some really great experiences with Workaway in the past and would love to have some more now that the borders have finally reopened.

More details about your skills

I have experience in teaching English and outdoor activities such as climbing and hiking. I love food but my cooking isn't amazing but that doesn't stop me looking to try out new dishes. I am used to doing tasks involving gardening and general outdoor work.

What else ...

I am a huge outdoors person and would much rather spend all my time in the outdoors than cooped up inside. I enjoy almost all sports especially hiking and cycling. I regularly take myself off on long meandering walks with little purpose but to just relax. I am a fan of the old circus skills and love to keep on adding to my repertoire of skills, however slowly this may be.

I love reading and dancing, although not together! It's not unusual to hear me singing or dancing during almost everything I do. And of course my perfect evening is being outdoors, surrounded by people and chatting away with a glass of white wine.

I am a very outgoing and talkative person with the belief that all people have something interesting to say.
