Hey. I'm Sam, I am a professional gardener from the UK
I love to travel, see new places and do new things. I regularly host couchsurfers at my home and am passionate about discovering the world
I taught English as a foreign language for many years, so happy to help with that. I have experience volunteering in hostels and doing a lot of gardening and agriculture based workaways. I also have experience managing workawayers at a large rural property that I took care of in Albania.
I can speak English, Spanish, German with some abilities in Dutch, Albanian and a bit of Russian too.
I know how to make websites, with my own gardening site being a prime example of my work. I'm currently working on my own e-commerce site in my spare time.
I'm also very knowledgeable about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies and feel passionate about educating people on these up-and-coming technologies. I can help you understand more on this topic.
In general I just love broadening my mind by interacting with new and interesting people as well as working with my hands and feeling like I've done a solid days work.Interests
