Description
Hey!

I'm Sandy, a traveller from Scotland. I recently graduated university and am looking to spend a year or two exploring the world before I settle down.

About me: I love to talk to people and listen to stories. In my spare time, I play a lot of guitar and I have a lot of fun jamming with musicians of all levels. You do not have to be musical to jam with me, we can play simple, fun music. I love to play jazz, although I am still very much a beginner jazz player. I love all kinds of music, blues, rock, country, funk, classical. My favourite musicians are: Bach, Bill Evans, and Steely Dan.

If you would like to exchange skills, I can teach maths (my degree) and music (my passion).
I am interested in mindfulness and meditation, though I am not skilled in such things. Oh - and I love animals. it is a dream of mine to work with horses.

Thank you for reading my profile, I hope to connect with you soon!

I had a really good exchange with Sandy from Scotland. Thankfully I could understand him (although we spoke the same language, a Scottish accent can be hard to understand) and I learned a lot about his country and now I can't wait to visit him someday.
Sandy is honest as the day is long and a wonderful conversationalist.
Super trustworthy and fun… read more

Cannot recommend staying with Cliff and Betina enough - what kind, generous hosts. There's a reason they don't have a single bad review.

What a marvellous family, full of interesting characters. Jack and Lorraine, Hamo and Diane made me feel right at home. A special mention must be made of Lorraine's wonderful cooking. The compost toilet took me a moment to get used to, I shan't tell a lie, but get used to it I did. I spent many hours talking with Jack about music, philosophy,… read more

Sandy is a hard worker with a sincere desire to understand how things work and how he can contribute. We spent most of our time on carpentry projects that took a lot of focus and effort, and once he got the full picture, we rarely slowed down. He learns quickly from experience once he gets into the groove and has a lot of energy. We had a ton of… read more

Manuel is very easy going, it was great to work with him! My Spanish was poor which made communication a little difficult at times, so I would say to potential workawayers that they should be reasonably comfortable listening to basic spoken Spanish. They were however very patient and understanding, and forgave me when I misunderstood them. This is… read more
