More details about your skills

Timbray: I have a diverse range of skills. My central training is in education and literature/the arts, but I have experience tour guiding, doing physical labor at Great Camp Sagamore, being a do-it-all guy for my town's Recreation Department, and doing housekeeping/cleaning work. I love interpersonal work, but also buckling down and tackling things on my own. I've got a lot of energy- I can usually be found singing or dancing at all times of the day.
I am fluent in English and a basic speaker of Mandarin. My French, sadly, is fading, though I would love to try to resuscitate it.
Lavita: An accomplished artist working in photography, ceramics, and paint, I have experience teaching art, as well as running an art studio in Shenzhen. Fluent in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese.
