Profile information
Description
I am an English Language Teacher from the south west of the UK, currently teaching English in a small university in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. I have lived and worked previously in Spain, Latin America and Africa. I love travelling and speak some Spanish and a little French and Italian. I love hiking / walking, cycling, bird-watching, and play Classical Guitar. In the UK I used to do a lot of voluntary environmental conservation work. I have had five great Workaway experiences in the Basque Country / North Spain so far, and have done voluntary work before (teaching, practical outdoor tasks and ecological work) in various other countries.
I particularly enjoy outdoor tasks and have basic skills around animal husbandry, horticulture, DIY and buiulding projects / construction....the latter best under supervision perhaps!Interests
