Descripción
Hullo, my name is Jon, from Glasgow, born and bred in bonnie Scotland.
I'm looking to volunteer, travel and experience different ways of living, especially those closer to nature and the outdoors :)
I have an education/career background in the merchant navy, sports science, accountancy & customer service.
I'm open-minded and extremely keen to learn new skills. I'm really interested in doing more practical work such as carpentry, building, landscaping, gardening, farm work & anything hands on really!
I can only claim to be a complete novice, but I am striving to develop a better knowledge & understanding of sustainable living, permaculture & all things off grid or self sufficiency related.
I enjoy helping others with whatever needs doing and love to meet new people & do new things.
I also enjoy the challenge of physical work and can adapt to working either by myself or as part of a team.
As well as all of the above, I'm interested in music, running, climbing, hillwalking, nutrition, meditation/yoga, adventures and having a laugh.

Algo más...
I'm hoping to encompass some of the routes of the Camino de Santiago.
My previous travelling hasn't been for extended periods like this but I have managed to visit Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore and squeezed in a good few city breaks around Europe, my favourite being Seville! I have also visited Tokyo with the Merchant Navy.
I love the outdoors in my home country Scotland, although haven't explored it as much as I would have liked to.. best trip so far has to be camping on the Isles of Skye & Harris.Más información
