CURRENT MISSION

Planning for a new life in Spain.

ABOUT ME

I've been back in the UK now for nearly 5 years, enjoying married life along with the plentiful supply of Yorkshire tea and weak ales. As great as it's been living in the British countryside once more, the weather just doesn't stack up. After much deliberation, we have decided to set off on a new adventure in Spain.

I previously spent 6 great years travelling and working my way around the world- South America, Canada, the States, Central America, Japan, South East Asia, India and now Central America again. I left on a 'gap year' post university which has extended on rather a lot longer than I initially planned...

After spending a few seasons on my snowboard, I stumbled into teaching... which luckily I quite enjoy! :D
