    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.

    I'm 24, with 3 year's professional experience in project management and policy; a degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics; and various part-time jobs and volunteering experience. I'm quick to learn, and am enthusiastic and positive. I'm happiest when throwing myself into new challenges!

    I can also sail (though experience in dinghys only), and have instructed both children and adults.

    I speak native-fluent English, and intermediate Spanish - which I'm really keen to improve, and am actively working on with the help of spanish-language podcasts, tv, and news!
