  • Description

    Travelling and meeting new people inspires me! I love immersing myself in new cultures, seeing new places, learning new skills and connecting with people. I am still trying to work out my purpose but I love sports, wellness, nature, photography and writing. I am exploring being a teacher and want to teach english abroad. I think communication, adaptability, kindness and softness are all underated skills and characteristics.

    More details about my language interests
    I have a degree in French and Spanish and am a native english speaker. Last year I got my TEFL (teaching english as a foreign language) qualification and would like to finally put into practise everything I learnt both from the teaching course, and years of language learning. I want to volunteer as a teacher at a school to explore a possible career in teaching

  • More details about your skills

    I have a Bachelor's degree in French and Hispanic studies and I love to learn new languages and study the culture and history of different countries.
    I also have a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificate, which I obtained in 2024 and would like to transfer these language and teaching qualifications into skills that I can use while travelling, to help people more disadvantaged than me, and also explore future career options.

    I have spent the last few years working seasonal jobs in France, and travelling in between. In winter, I worked as a restaurant manager in a popular ski resort, working with and leading an international team, and snowboarding in my free time. In the summer, I worked on the south west coast of France, working in a restaurant, serving and preparing food and drinks, and surfing in my free time.

    I learnt many new skills during these years, such as communication skills, language skills, becoming more adaptable, dynamic, and solving problems.
    I think working abroad and travelling has lead me to become a more understanding, easy going, kind and resilient person.
