Les activités qui m'intéressent :
I'm currently hiking the Lycian Way. I'll finish it in Antalya around the 1st April.
Description
I'm a positive, happy and inquisitive person. I love being outdoors - hiking, cycling, climbing, camping, swimming etc! I also love photography, gardening and working with wood/DIY. I'm really keen to meet like minded people and contribute to helping hosts with their projects and dreams!
Background: I've never really traveled much and spent most of my life so far focusing on the normal things like my career here in the UK. I studied hard and have a PhD and am now working as an river ecologist in northern England. But underlying that, there's always been some desire to 'escape' the system! After visiting the Alpujarras in the Sierra Nevada mountains, Spain in 2015 and staying on an off grid organic farm and seeing how good life could be, I've become transfixed with the dream of escaping to a more off grid, rural and alternative lifestyle. Hopefully the dream will become a full time reality at some point.
In 2024 I'm taking 6 months off work as a career break. My plan is to travel on train from London to Turkey in the spring and hike the Lycian Way. I'd love to WorkAway on my travels too :-)
