  • Description

    Hi all!

    I'm Chris, I live in the North East of England, in a small village town on the coast. I'm 33 years of age and I'm a qualified maintenance engineer. I began an apprenticeship from school at the age of 16 and I was fully qualified with an NVQ level 3 and foundation degree by the age of 21. I have been and worked in maintenance ever since the age of 16 working as a multi-skilled technician.

    However, I have recently took a (voluntary) redundancy from work to pursue my love of travel and exploring new cultures/ religions/ passions and life experience.

    I have travelled around 30 countries now (approximately 20 solo). Although mainly Europe but I now want to travel further and explore more of Asia. I absolutely love to meet new people, young and old and listen and learn from their encounters in life. I have a young Nephew who I adore and love doing activities with him and trying to help him outside of school hours with anything I can.

    I am a very caring and considerate person who always tries my best to do the utmost best for others health and happiness.

    I absolutely love sport, especially football! But I'd love to learn more about many more countries passions on sport and normal day to day traditions!

    Thanks for listening and anything else, feel free to ask!
    Chris 😊

  • More details about your skills

    From a young age I had a passion of fixing things and trying to help my father on normal duties, fixing lights, broken furniture, gardening etc. That is why I went into maintenance and engineering straight from school. I left school with the highest marks recorded in engineering (at the time) with myself and my family were very proud of. I also completed my apprenticeship with all distinctions in all modules.
