  • Description

    Hello, my name is Kane Alexander, I am 39 years old, born in Nottingham, England. I graduated from the University of Wales, Trinity Saint David (UWTSD) in June 2023 with an MA in ancient religions. I majored within the intersection of psychology and Taoist philosophy.

    I taken my undergraduate and masters degrees as a mature student, and took every opportunity available to study around the globe. I have studied in Holland on the Erasmus programme and studied in China twice, once with Peking University at Confucian institute summer school as well as spending a semester in Anhui (China) as a scholarship student.

    Whenever not living in university accommodation I have volunteered within Buddhist religious organisations all over England yet, also in Scotland, and Spain. As well a a few Hindu organisations in England and Wales including Hare Krishna.

    My most recent work away was in France, functioning as a teaching assistant. I am still open to what I will do when I complete my doctorate. Hence, I am currently using workaway to gain career related skills and experience. As well as travel and enjoyment.

    Since, November 2023, I have been studying a PhD with Bangor University of Wales. My doctorate is within the combination of Tibetan Buddhism and the philosophy of Carl Jung.

    In my spare time I learn Mandarin and practice Qi gong. Hence I have managed to pull together. Many hobbies and interests of East-Asia together with my university life and work life.
