Activities i am interested in:

I am interested in all kinds of activities - from gardening, housework, language exchange, outdoor activities and service work.

Description

I am an 25M architecture student from Ireland, currently on a one-year 'sabbatical'. I have been living in Copenhagen during my sabbatical and have been working until recently as an intern for a landscape architecture firm in Copenhagen. I would like to travel and enjoy some experiences during the remainder of summer before returning to do my final year of studies in September.
I am pescetarian, but most of the time I eat vegetarian. I love cats, and have my own 13-year old calico in Ireland (currently being looked after by my mum).
I am a very open-minded and service-orientated person. I am really interested in travel/cultural exchange and find it genuinely interesting to learn and embrace other cultures.

More details about your skills

Native English speaker
As a native English speaker, I can offer the chance to improve your English. Although I don’t have a formal qualification, I’ve been told by my international friends I speak very clearly (for an Irish person!) and I have a genuine interest in teaching too. Since I am interested in languages, it would be great if I can try learning your language!

Gardening
I have an interest in plants and gardening, which started when I was doing my mum’s garden. I planted all the borders a few years ago, and with some additional plants going in over the past few years, the garden is starting to take shape. I have also looked after a neighbour’s garden while they were on holiday. Since doing my internship in landscape architecture, I have improved my knowledge of plants. However, I still have more to learn and will be eager to get some practical experience working on whatever projects you might have in the garden.

Design/ IT skills
This is probably the area I am most qualified in, since I have studied Architecture for 4 years, with only my final thesis remaining. My particular area of interest is in landscape architecture, and I have been doing an internship in that field for the past few months. I can help with giving design advice, for interior or exterior work, space planning and interior design. As I have graphical experience, I can help you making booklets, flyers, posters etc.

Painting/Decorating
I have done a good bit of painting over the past few years, from walls, furniture and doors. So picking up a paint brush is no hassle for me! Of course, I am more than happy to help with decorating, whether it is hanging up curtains, assembling furniture or whatever else! In fact, I did the interior decoration of my friends apartment a few months ago which he was happy with!

DIY
I have less experience with DIY (so far) but I am more than happy to learn and help out!
