Travelling
Description
I'm looking for opportunities to experience new cultures, different ways of life, and to meet interesting people!
I'm originally from a remote area of the UK, and love being outdoors, scenic landscapes, and nature. I love hiking and other outdoor activities, season-dependent - including sailing, skiing, and surfing. I also boulder year-round indoors.
I'm a qualified sailing instructor, have experience nannying and working in conservation, and have completed a range of manual labour type workaways.
Mostly, I'm just motivated by new challenges and exploring new things ! I've been lucky enough to backpack and travel quite widely, and am keen to continue this.Interests

I enjoy outdoor activities, including hiking, swimming, sailing, and skiing. I also love bouldering, but so far have only done this indoors, and have fairly recently started (but am really enjoying) yoga!
