  • Description

    Hi!

    My name is Kamal, currently 26years of age, I was born and raised a Londoner. I have an insatiable sense of curiosity, which I believes drives my sense of adventure. I have a need to constantly try new things which has led to a number of odd jobs and hobbies. I've taught English to monks In nepal, worked with colourscape to assist in the maintenance of their beautiful interactive art sculptures, trained in specialty coffee, volunteered in buddhist centres, worked festivals, worked on big name music videos and more. I am open to pretty much anything work wise.

    Coming from quite a chaotic upbringing really drew me in to philosophy, specifically eastern philosophy. I cherish moments of stillness and really try to look for it everywhere I go. The past few years have been quite overwhelming so I'm trying to find balance through lifestyle and changing my environment. I would love more outdoor experience, growing up in london I never learnt how to comfortably be outside, how to garden, how to farm, how to sustainably live off the land. I pick things up very quickly and am very eager to learn!

    As a person I am definitely on the introverted side of the spectrum, I love my own space. That's not to say I'm incapable of being outgoing, I have a fascination with people and love hanging out and having great conversations.

    Thanks for taking the time to read!

  • More details about your skills

    -Very adept at odd & spontaneous jobs. Have done painting (houses), some DIY work, worked at music festivals, general housekeeping, Animating, working on music video sets, teaching. I am no stranger to odd and unusual tasks and will tackle them head on!

    -Speciality trained barista/high class waitering. I have spent the last few years predominantly in the hospitality industry. I trained 8 weeks in speciality coffee before working in various specialty coffee shops around London. I have also waitered for some really high profile events, such as lords banquits, freemasons and award shows. Because of this I have become very well situated to high pressure situations and thinking on my feet.

    - Physically quite fit. I have no issues with manual labour, I am quite capable of moving and lifting heavy items. I make it a part of my personal philosophy to really give things my full attention and effort so I won't shy away or slack.

    - Pick things up very quickly and very eager to learn. I have a number of hobbies and tend to pick new things up quite quickly. I taught myself how to animate, how to edit, taught myself circus skills including flower sticks and juggling, taught myself how to produce musically, bouldering and have a deep love for martial arts.
