Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To help people enjoy their travels a little more!
ABOUT ME
I am an English teacher currently working in the beautiful city of Cambridge.
I have an outgoing personality which means I like going out, there are quite a few bars and pubs in this small city and I would be more than happy to show people around should they need a place to lay their head.
I am orginally from Essex in England but have lived in Cambridgeshire for many years.
I have also lived and worked in Poland, Hong Kong, Thailand and Sicily.
PHILOSOPHY
Enjoy!
Interests
I enjoy going out, eating, drinking, reading, playing guitar and following my football team West Ham United in their world beating heroics.
I am a keen traveller, which goes without saying really. I hope I can help people enjoy their own trips through Poland or wherever I am living.
