I'm a writer, a dreamer, a roamer, and an ex-vagabond ready for some stability

Description

Greetings and well wishes dear readers,

If I've been anything over the past decade, it's a traveller. I spent more than three years roaming and living in various countries across Asia—among which: Bhutan, India, Myanmar, Iran, Nepal, Laos, and Oman. I roamed around Europe for multiple years, depriving me of my comfort zone by pushing the limits of my resilience; and dabbled my toes in the Americas and Oceania, lost on the other side of those vast expanses. My main motivator was a desperate search for myself, and as I would later discover also served as a means to escape. I slowly came to realise that, despite having been an invaluable teacher (for I saw travelling as my alternative education,) it was time to re-integrate into the more traditional channels of our society. This realisation propelled me to embark on a new kind of journey, a journey for stability, a journey to honestly evaluate my needs and work towards obtaining them.
I currently have two major missions on this new journey: the first is to nurture the embryonic state of my novel (currently no more than a vast patchwork of miscellaneous concepts, scattered characters, and chaotic fragments of prose.) The second is to find a wonderful place to establish myself as an English teacher, build experience, and give back to those that need it.

As of now I am catering my profile to English teaching positions. Due to currently lacking a bachelor's degree (I attended four universities but never quite found the patience to sit one out), obtaining one of those necessary credentials to be taken seriously in our bureaucratic society might just be my third and final major mission, for the time being at least.
I have done some free online tests to confirm that I do indeed have a level of C2 proficiency in English. On top of that, one of my adventures of the distant past, led me to obtain a 120-h TEFL degree in Thailand.

------------------

Here's some things that I value at the moment:

- I'm a writer (unpublished)—so I would love to find a place where I can feel productive in my writing.
- Nature—when a natural environment is healthy and stable, it oozes power, and whether it be in a whisper or a roar, I wanna hear its tale.
- A peaceful environment filled with kindness.
- Some comfort—meaning a clean and cosy home, some healthy and tasty food, and a nice little space for me to curl into rest.


Thank you for reading and considering me to become part of your home.
I hope we can share wonderful times together 🌈❤️🙏

love,

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

Very few, actually. I like to think of myself as somewhat of a Siddartha, Hermann Hesse's protagonist in the book of the same name, who, when asked about his skills replies, 'I can do three things--I can fast, I can think, and I can wait.' Later he does prove the value of those things as he becomes filthy rich. But to be fair, I'm not even great at those.

But for the sake of not selling myself unnecessarily short, here's an attempt at a list:

- Multi-lingual, decently witted, and tolerable human being
- I can read and write, does that still count?
- Patient and loving caretaker to all kind and kindred souls (sadly, have yet to reach an unconditional capacity, so be kind 😈)
- Decent, self-taught, yet dangerously experimental cook.
- The list could go on ...

Autres infos...

I have some lingering lower back issues. I hope I can find a place where people are willing to accommodate that. It's nothing too serious, and I am still a very active young man 😅 but I need to be gentle with it.
