Description

Hello! I'm Alexander, currently taking a travel break after resigning from role in financial services. Looking to explore and learn about different cultures and experience life in a different way. I love to try new food and cuisines and I enjoy cooking and developing an understanding of different flavour profiles. I spent a lot of time on a farm growing up so happy doing lots of different work i.e. looking after animals, laying concrete, painting, gardening, putting up fences, fixing walls, helping with a little bit of plumbing, making firewood, a little bit of tractor driving and quad biking as well. I wouldn't consider myself an expert but always happy to help out. Currently looking to travel to Scandinavia, Switzerland and Australia for their cold winters before the hot summers.

I also have a background in mechanical engineering so have worked with lathes and milling machines / have general workshop experience. I'd really enjoy getting back to some hands on work.

I have lived in multiple countries and volunteered in Nicaragua and Honduras helping to build a water pipeline as well as helping with putting on education workshops about general hygiene. Currently trying to also revise some of the languages that I had learnt in particular Russian and Chinese. Open to learning others as well - had been recently looking at German and Italian.

Would be great to meet fun, relaxed and social people to explore and make a difference. If you want to chat or ask anything feel free 😊
