    Travelling

  • Description

    I'm a overland backpacker. I hike and hitchhike my way through countries. I find my way of travel allows me to really experience the cultures I move through and I wouldn't have it any other way.
    Easy to work with, Easy to teach. Always a hard worker, always hungry.
    I'm motivated by doing the right thing. I'm motivated to gain new experience no matter how strange - it's why I'm out here. And also obviously very motivated by food!
    Love being real and having down to earth experiences.

    More details about my language interests
    I'm extremely proficient in English with a large lexicon and a wide understanding of context. I took a couple of years of Chinese in the school. I also have taken a couple years of sign language. However, I've always been interested in foreign languages and I'm certainly willing and hoping to learn more languages throughout my journey.

  • More details about your skills

    I've already had a job cleaning hotels where I had to clean 30 to 40 rooms a day to a highly scrutinized standard. I've worked in a labor hall during covid-19 which had me going to several construction sites and industrial settings for little pay. I am no stranger to working in the garden tending to plants and animals. Chickens are a favorite of mine. However, most of my career has been spent in sales so I handle rejection with a smile and have a robust positive attitude in general. So any fundraising or working with the public would be a great fit for me as well.

  • What else ...

    I play a lot of tabletop RPG games. I've been a dungeon master playing d&d for well over a decade and is one of my main hobbies back at home to do with friends. I'm very social, I like to go out and sit down with random people and to make conversation - That's also something you'd see me doing habitually back at home. Growing up I wrestled in high school and was involved in several combat sports from my childhood on.
