Description
I'm a very fit 57 yr old. I have many skills and can turn my hand to most things. I qualified as a landscape gardener in the 90s and spent ten years living and working in London. I have a reasonable knowledge of soft landscaping, but have also gained skills working in property maintenance - carpentry, plumbing, electrics etc. In 2019, I built an extension to my flat. I had help with the structural work, but did most of the second fix work myself. In my youth, I trained as a vehicle mechanic and still maintain all my own vehicles. I have much experience, particularly with French cars, having owned many of these vehicles.
I have a dry sense of humour, am curious about anything and everything and have many interests, including travel, writing, music, film. I am also an avid BBC R4 and 6Music listener. I enjoy anything mechanical, gardening, cooking, hiking, camping, getting out in nature and lots more! I eat everything and love to make good food. In the last decade, I've ridden a motorbike around Thailand and Vietnam, walked and cycled the Camino in Spain, spent three months exploring Japan and summers travelling round Europe in my van. I work at the Olympics and was recently at the winter games in Milan. I love all animals, but have a real soft spot for cats, dogs, ducks and goats. A few years ago, I looked after a flock of sheep in Galicia

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
I can turn my hand to most things - Qualified landscaper and gardener; general building skills - carpentry, plumbing, electrics; vehicle repair and maintenance; computer literate; cooking. I've pretty much fixed most things - If something doesn't work, I always take it apart to find out why!

Autres infos...
I enjoy nature and animals. I would like to find a workaway that involves looking after animals, or helping animals in some way. I would describe myself as an interesting introvert, who loves to let rip... sometimes! I prefer quieter households with fewer people. Also interested in ecobuilds and ecoliving - would love to learn more about this.

He took Max my dog on many a walk.
He was only with me for a week but he achieved a lot in that week.
I wish him well on his travels
