Description

Hey all, I’m a sociable, outdoor-loving Scottish guy (24yrs), enjoying my workaway journey and excited to connect with kind souls along the way.

For me, volunteering abroad is all about the people, the stories, laughs, and friendships we make along the way. I’ve already made some amazing connections volunteering and I’m always up for making more, whether it’s through us working together, chatting over a coffee, sharing a beer, or eating a (hopefully edible) meal that I prepared for you.

I just completed my CELTA english teaching qualification in Turkey, and I am off to Egypt and Jordan for Dec/Jan. I would love the opportunity to teach further, or learn something new!

More details about your skills

I posses a variety of practical, technical, and everyday skills that fits nicely with many Workaway positions.

With my background as a Engineer on Ships, I have experience in handling general maintenance, DIY projects, fixing things around the house, and working with tools or computer hardware.

I’ve also worked as a cleaner for offices, restuarants and shops, so I know how to keep spaces tidy and presentable. Plus, I have experience in the kitchen, helping with food prep and kitchen cleaning. Which I will be he happy to apply to my position.

I’m also comfortable with Microsoft Office and quick to pick up new software, which could be useful for anyone needing help with reception and digital work.

Most of all, I’m friendly, reliable, and always keen to help wherever needed. Whether that’s supporting your project, helping in the house, or learning something new on the go.

What else ...

I enjoy being out in nature, hiking, camping, or just exploring new places. Travelling and socialising with new people, having a laugh with them and hanging out is what I enjoy.

When I’m not outdoors, I’m usually reading, catching live music, bouldering, at the gym, or messing about on games online with my mates.

I change interests a lot, always curious, and I’m always up for trying something new, so if you’ve got a hobby you love, I’m keen to give it a go!
