Description
Hi Workaway community,
My name is Josh! I'm solo traveller who divides his time between many places around the world.
Here's some facts about me:
* 36 years old
* I have been a volunteer on work away/helpex/wwoofing for 14 years!
* I've worked as an electrician my whole life
* I'm a psychotherapy student (currently online)
* Certified Rescue Diver
* Certified English Language Teacher
I have lived on/off in Melbourne for 10 years. I made the decision to become a motorcycle rider, which one day a taxi cut me up and has resulted in a wrist injury that ended my career.
But all is blessings in disguise, I've begun my journey as a Psychotherapist. Studying online 2 days a week. Mental health is my passion and I was blessed with a spiritual upbringing in my native UK.
My physical abilities are a little bit compromised now with my wrist. I usually travel as an electrician but I've got to take it a little bit easy in that respect now. Hard labour is a little out the question. However, it doesn't mean I'm unable to cook, clean, hospitality/reception duties, childcare, animal care etc...
I've got my own transport and about to embark on a journey up the coast from Melbourne (Oct 2025)
I don't smoke and rarely drink alcohol.
Let's exchange our culture and stories! I look forward to meeting you. -
