Descrição

I am an English language teacher and teacher trainer. I have spent a lot of my life living and working in many different countries in the world. I love learning languages and am passionate about learning different cultures and people. I have my own house in London, which I share with four other from different cultures and a mix of ages. I spend a lot of time renovating and repairing my house. I am thinking of buying a house in the countryside Italy with some international friends. I am now learning Italian, and planning to spend some time in Italy, ideally working as a volunteer to make friends, improve my physical skills, develop Italian language skills and learn more about the area and what is needed. I love walking, reading and talking about everything. I am very flexible and willing to help with any kind of work. I get on well with people of all ages. I don't now have a car, but enjoy cycling.

Algo mais...

I am currently writing an English language course (for English language teachers whose own level is very low), so I would like access to the internet for research etc.

I am happy to play board games. I play chess (though only once a year) and to join in with any sports or games with anyone. I have organised many parties (in my house and elsewhere!) I do some painting and drawing.
