Hello Everyone,
Our names are Matthew and Kristy.
We are experienced travelers who have been living and working as teachers in Thailand for the last few months and are now travelling through other countries in South East Asia. In particular, we are looking for other ways continue travelling while getting more involved in the local communities and learning new skills.
We are very outgoing and adventurous people who love to experience new places as much as possible. We love to explore nature and can happily spend hours wandering about looking for insects, plants and mushrooms.
Matthew is a scientist by training but apart from teaching English he also has experience with administration, customer service, some general handyman jobs and cleaning. While he's no trained chef, he is a very good cook, which is one of the reasons for why he's fascinated by local cuisines.
Kristy is a teacher and a digital artist, is very crafty and great with her hands. She has 10 years of experience in the hotel industry both with customer service and administration. She has even set up a new hotel from scratch. She's fantastic with children, has worked jobs as a nanny in the past and her teaching job in Thailand involved kindergarten level kids. She also has a music school education and is great with animals.
We both love exploring new places and trying local foods. We don't shy away from a challenge and love learning and practicing new skills. We both live for new experiences every day and are very warm and friendly people. We're sure we can make ourselves useful in any community.Intereses

We both love to play card, dice and board games. We feel these are great ways to break the ice and would love to teach games we know as well as learn new ones. Matthew is currently learning to play the ocarina and has a pocket microscope which he likes to use to investigate the nature world.
