Travel information

I am currently

Description

I am currently on a gap year before going to university and would like to experience, and help out with, everything that is available to me. During my travels I would like to meet new and interesting people, grow as a person while helping others and rock climb as much as possible. I love having those rare conversations where the barriers that we put up fade away and we are able to share our different, diverse and potentially conflicting points of view without judgement and understand each other and ourselves a little more.

More details about my language interests
I am happy to teach English and French. I would probably be more comfortable teaching French when it comes to the actual rules of the language as I learned them myself as opposed to just picking them up in childhood. I recently started trying to learn Swedish and am interested in progressing as much as possible.

More details about your skills

I have worked as a gardener in my village, mainly using the lawnmower and the strimer, but I also did other general gardening tasks.
I have a Pse 1 diploma which certifies that I am qualified in first aid, as well as a Bnssa diploma which certifies that I am a qualified lifeguard.
I moved to France when I was 5 years old and have gone through the education system here, so I am fluent in French and capable of teaching it.
Younger I was an avid reader and drew quite a lot, I still enjoy both of these activities, though I practice them less often.
I am fairly capable in kayaking, climbing and skiing and could teach the basics of these sports.
