Description

Enchanté ! Gin here!
I leave the UK in July, starting in Biarritz to learn french and attempt to surf. I'll then take a train ride up to Montpellier to continue learning French there for 2 weeks. After that, I plan to explore the Alps for hikes , wild swims and be with nature !
I would consider myself a very calm and patient person.. My hobbies include exploring , dog walking / dog sitting, hikes in the mountains , live music , beach swims and outdoor bootcamps.
My music is also a big part of my life, although my creative energy has disappeared since working in an office... I sing , compose, play piano, electric guitar and have gigged as a solo artist and with a band back at my home in Norwich (UK).
I've had quite a few jobs working outdoors covering Animal Management (large & small animals), Countryside Management, Conservation projects & Garden Maintenance, however, I've spent the last 5 years in an office (Technical support), so my feet are itching to get outdoors !
