Descrição
Hi. I am an adventurer and have done numerous jobs including : Army medic, Back packer Tour operator and guide in Australia's Outback, an English teacher in Guatemala for 7 months, Cambodia for 2 years,China 4 years and Sri Lanka for 10 months.I went back to Sri Lanka again and came up with an idea to help a family to build a small business that provided camping huts and facilities. Google: "Homestay Camping Anuradhapura Sri Lanka" to see the results. I am also a kite maker and travel to schools and teach kite making, in remote areas of Australia . For fun I have a sailing kayak (Hobie Island) and sail to uninhabited islands where I camp for up to 3 weeks. I volunteer for BlazeAid, helping farmers rebuild fences and buildings after major natural disaster.

Rob is one of the best English teachers I have seen. He is very active in his lessons and I don't think any kid would yawn. Kids love him. I was amazed to see how Ms. Kumari, one of his adult students improved her English in an amazing pace. I taught her a couple of weeks and gave it up thinking it was her fault. But now I understand that the… read more

I had a wonderful experience and would recommend to all. It was amazing the children are incredable and I love them all.My host family Ramanee and Udaya are like brother and sister to me and will always have a special place in my heart. This was only my second workaway and I learnt a lot. I am looking forward to my next.

Hi...
It seems that the amount of sacrifice for this project has not been adequate for 15 years.
Thank you very much for showing me shortcomings….
You strengthened me, more than a good feedback….
Those are also for the future of our students…
You helped us very well during your time
Thank you again
