  • Description

    Hello , my name is Gabe and I am currently studying Outdoor and Adventure Education at Chichester. I have got a placement year starting in June and am looking to work, travel and pick up new skills as I go through the year. Whilst at Univeristy I love to boulder and draw , 2 hobbies which I have had lots more time to explore since moving out. I have also spent lots time working in Kitchens , starting from the age of 15 I have meandered my way through pub kitchens ,becoming an assistent chef at the age of 19 and cooking everything from wood fired pizza to pub classics. Nowadays I have started my own business as a Handyman which lets me balance my own schedule and gives me skills I can travel with.

    More details about my language interests
    I would pride myself on being a good "Interpreter" of any language , in reality I do not know any other languages but studied French and German at school. Regretably not being grabbed by either aged 14 has not left me with a great memory of both

  • More details about your skills

    I have worked in the catering industry for the last 6 years , working in lots of different teams with high turnover. These jobs also taught me how to work in a high pressure environment. In my more recent jobs this has involved staff training and supervison roles. Throughout my handyman work I have been given lots of random jobs to do and have given me a varying range of construction skills and also some more personal DIY and home improvement ones too. I have lots of experience painting and decorating and have spent countless hours logging with my dad as we live in a rural area. In between all this I have trained dogs and can ride a horse.

  • What else ...

    Love a bit of arts and crafts , I have recently been getting into Warhammer and try to scrap book all of my travel. I have previously been an enthusiastic mountain biker however I have had 2 bikes stolen in 4 months so I am beginning to think its not meant to be. I am trying to force myself to read more ,and enjoy books when I get into them. I am learning to DJ and mix at university , having found an old DDJ 200 on facebook I have taken a slow road into mixing the music I like.
