Description

Ready to rock 'n roll!

I am Erich, a fun loving guy who likes to travel (but tranquilo!) and meet new people.
For most of my life I have worked as a sales rep in the technical / medical device industries and have travelled extensively and met new people with different cultural backgrounds. I was in the most interesting cities and met really amazing people, but never took the time to get to know them better…
I enjoy music, dancing, occasionally visiting a bar, if anybody could stand my singing I'd be doing that too... let's not forget goofing around, sharing stories and discussions.
Now, I am looking forward to helping other people reach their goals in life – and will take the time to see the sights and interact with all those people out there waiting to meet me, as I am waiting to meet them.

I like to describe myself as being reliable, a selfstarter and certainly a guy with a sense of humour.

Being a voracious reader, I nevertheless love trekking in the Andes or living on remote islands and of course meeting you, enriching my life and hoping to give you something useful in return.

I am looking forward to this experience.

More details about my language interests
If you're not looking for somebody versed in explaining grammar I can teach English and German. My Spanish and French are in need of some spit'n shine... but usually I can make myself be understood.

More details about your skills

My background is in mechanical engineering and business administration.

- limited experience in teaching/tutoring young kids and teenagers in English, German, basic French, math, physics, geography, history (western, US).

- worked in sales and marketing so I do know how to do presentations.

- enjoy most manual labour but don't let me near any plants you want to keep, I'm really lousy in all types of gardening. I guess I can rake leaves off the ground, they are already dead...
