Description
Era profesor de inglés durante unos años hasta ahora que lo he dejado. En vez de trabajar, voy a pasar unos meses en Colombia para descubrir el país, conocer y disfrutar con buena gente y mejorar mi español. Después? Ni idea! Solo que necesito cambio.

Soy de Inglaterra pero mi madre es francesa y he pasado los últimos seis años viviendo en varios países: Italia, Francia, Ecuador, España y Grecia. Me encanta viajar y ver lugares (qué sorpresa) pero sobretodo lo importante para mí es la gente y su cultura - por eso suelo quedarme en lugares durante unos meses por lo menos, y intento aprender los idiomas.

La gente suele decirme que soy muy amable, carismático y gracioso. Aunque me gusta jugar y bromear, también sé bien trabajar y además me importa mucho ayudar a los otros. Aparte enseñar el inglés, no tengo una capacidad muy especializada - puede ser que ahora toque a mí a aprender y ser el estudiante!

I had the most wonderful five weeks here! Sol and Jose are very approachable, helpful and well-organised. The hostel itself is really relaxed, colourful and the terrace is such a nice place to be. Jardín is magical! Picturesque, lots of nice cafés and bars, and plenty of stunning countryside to hike in. The hostel work is enough to keep you busy… read more

Adrian was a very good volunter! Willing to learn and contribute to the hostel, very energetic and friendly.
He was a big help for us and even more than that, we became friends :)

Thanks for everything and see you soon!

What a place! The people, the premises, the location... It truly felt like home for my month's stay and I left with a heavy heart. Sandra, Michelle and Caridad are all lovely and caring people who take great pride in their clean, attractive and vibrant hostel and do their best to ensure your comfort and enjoyment. The work is very much manageable… read more

After a promising Skype with Ericka and her family, I booked with flights 2 months ahead to Quito with their blessing. Worrying, communication then went downhill, with Ericka tending not to answer simple questions (just wishing me well instead or similar). I gave her the benefit of the doubt, perhaps naively, and sure enough - one week before my… read more

Adrian, thank you so much for two wonderful weeks!
It was our pleasure to have you as our guest and you spent a great deal of time speaking in English with us, correcting us with grace, giving us hope that we can always get better at it.
You also shared many of our daily activities, helped us in the house and got to spend time with our… read more

An absolutely fantastic experience! I was made to feel at home from the moment I entered the door. Not only are Cecilia, Ennio, Davide and Claudia a delight to be around, but they also have lovely family and friends nearby all within the picturesque, truly and beautifully Italian town of Carpi. The chickens, Kikka and Kokka, are amusingly pretty… read more
