Description
Hello :) I'm Tom, from rainy Manchester UK. I'm an easy-going, thoughtful, and calm person who enjoys socialising and spending time with others while also cherishing my time alone to recharge. I'm organised, tidy, and reliable, and highly respectful of others’ personal space.
I'm away from home long-term (currently in Istanbul) travelling slowly around the world for a year or so.
I enjoy making music with friends, reading, swimming, playing chess (I'm not very good), running (I'm really not very good!), politics and current affairs, cooking, and learning about new cultures and languages.Centres d’intérêt

Before this, I had a three-year spell as a Bartender and then Bar Supervisor in a music venue, a few years of customer service experience in a clothes store, and around a year working in a fast-food restaurant. I also have an undergraduate Chemistry degree so I am happy to help with any Excel/maths-y/business stuff!

The work itself is exceptionally well organised: you may support with housekeeping, cooking, gardening, construction, or babysitting depending on your interests. A schedule is created each week with flexibility for your days off, and you'll work around 5 hours a day… read more
