Description

I’m a curious and adventurous traveler with a deep passion for exploring new places and immersing myself in the cultures, histories, and stories of the people I encounter. I find joy in walking and taking in my surroundings, whether accompanied by a podcast, music, or simply the natural sounds around me.

I enjoy meeting new people and connecting through shared experiences, though I also appreciate time to myself. Some of my favorite moments are spent in cafés—reading, people-watching, or simply savoring a good coffee or cup of tea. Cooking is another passion of mine, especially experimenting with new recipes and sharing meals with others, and I have always had a soft spot for animals.

I studied English Literature, English Language, Photography, and Psychology at A-level, before pursuing a degree in Criminology at university. Most recently, I worked in a hospital emergency department, where I was responsible for trauma data collection. This role offered invaluable insights into the healthcare system and the importance of precision and adaptability in high-pressure environments.

Each stage of my education and professional experience has provided me with valuable skills and knowledge, which continue to shape my perspective and inform my daily life. Now, I have decided to step away from my role to travel the world, embracing the opportunity to learn and grow through new experiences.

Currently, I am balancing my love for travel with my academic interest in human rights, particularly in the fields of human trafficking and modern slavery. Whether exploring new destinations or pursuing my studies, I am always eager to learn, grow, and form meaningful connections along the way.

More details about my language interests
I have always regarded language learning as a privilege and an invaluable tool for connecting with people and cultures. My foundation in French began during my school years, and I continue to build on this through self-study with Duolingo. I have also recently embarked on learning Spanish using the same platform, which has deepened my appreciation for the process of acquiring new languages. As a native English speaker with an A-Level in English Language, I am fluent in speaking, listening, and writing, and would be more than happy to share my knowledge with others as they explore the language. I remain open and enthusiastic about the opportunity to learn additional languages, seeing it not only as a personal challenge but also as a meaningful way to engage with the world around me.

More details about your skills

I bring a versatile set of skills and experiences, shaped by my passions and a strong work ethic. As a confident and enthusiastic cook, I enjoy preparing meals for others, whether by following detailed recipes or creatively working with available ingredients. My first language is English, which allows me to communicate effectively in a range of settings.

I have extensive experience caring for children, having looked after my friends’ children for short periods and my nieces for extended stays. I am attentive, patient, and reliable, ensuring children are safe, engaged, and well cared for.

Cleanliness and organization are important to me; I take pride in maintaining tidy spaces and genuinely enjoy cleaning and creating orderly environments.

My experience extends to working with animals, having spent several summers in the United States supporting a racehorse trainer. This role required dedication, adaptability, and a readiness for physically demanding work, all of which I embraced wholeheartedly.

Additionally, I have 6–7 years of driving experience in England, which has equipped me with strong road awareness and confidence behind the wheel.

Overall, I am practical, hardworking, and eager to contribute my skills wherever they are needed.

What else ...

I’ve always loved being outdoors, whether it’s going on long dog walks or spending time by the coast, where I grew up. Beach days, sunrises, and sunsets are some of my favorite simple pleasures.

I enjoy playing board games all year round—not just at Christmas—and my favorite is Connect 4. Family is important to me, and I love cooking for my grandma and spending time with her.

Fashion is another interest of mine, whether it’s putting outfits together or helping friends organize their wardrobes for a fresh start. On quieter evenings, I’m happiest with either a good book or a film.

My ideal life would combine work with travel, allowing me to see as much of the world as possible while doing something meaningful.
