  • Description

    Like a lot of people, I want to try new things and see different parts of the world and I'm interested in slow travel - spending more time getting to know a place and a culture.

    I'm open to hands on work work, ideally with a connection to nature. I've done a previous work away on a farm offering help with odd jobs, gardening and woodwork. I'm pretty confident with woodwork but could always do with more practice.

    I also have qualification Teaching English as a Foreign Language, with 5 months experience working in schools in Hanoi teaching children of all ages! I'm open to providing English classes to communities.

    I've done solo travel before so I'm comfortable with that.

    I play a bit of guitar, enjoy cooking, and nature. I've taken on some woodworking projects in the past, usually simple things like cabinets or boxes but some more elaborate stuff like a cigar box guitar too. I'm pretty confident with it, but could do with more practice if the opportunity arises.

    I only speak English unfortunately.

  • More details about your skills

    I'm a decent woodworker and can do projects like, planters, cabinets, etc easily. I am keen to learn more though if the opportunity arises.

    I worked in audio/visual hire for a time so I'm pretty handy with tech stuff though no expert I can usually fix stuff. I've done home repairs on things like games consoles and record players in the past.

    Native English speaker with a degree in English Literature and History, and another degree in Journalism so I could probably manage some tutoring as well.
