About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I am currently working permanently in the finance industry in England and saving up for the future which I hope will include lots of travel to new countries and cultures, as well as my favourites of the ones I have already visited, such as Argentina, Thailand, Australia and New Zealand.
ABOUT ME
I am a 25 year old single guy in England with a taste for travelling, I travelled with friends through South East Asia and Australasia, then in 2013 I lived in Mar del Plata in Argentina for 5 months teaching English and learning the culture, followed by 5 months travelling solo through South America.

Teach, Learn, Share
I learnt Spanish to a conversational level while on a teaching program in Argentina, and am trying to improve my Spanish while learning Italian as well. I am desperately trying to roll my R's!!! I only taught English as a volunteer without foreign language training, but am always happy to help others with language problems, especially online.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I live in a small village near the Cotswolds, a beautiful area of countryside in England which I have shown to my friends including Cris Acuna who was my teaching co-ordinator in Argentina.
