Mon statut

Description

Hello! I'm David, friendly, easy-going guy from London.

I recently finished a role I had for over 25 years as a software developer for the real estate industry. I'm looking for new challenges that are fun, interesting and rewarding. I like to be productive and enjoy seeing a job well done. I have a wide range of interests: music, opera, cooking, gardening, archaeology, visiting old houses and gardens. I have some renovation experience that I gained working on my own place.

I've seen the incredible work people have put into restoring their old country properties and really want to get involved with this. I love to see unused places with their incredible architecture, packed with history, made good and beautiful again. I'd love to help restoring buildings, gardens, parks, woodlands...
