CURRENT MISSION

Starting my career as a building engineer.

ABOUT ME

I am 25 years old, and I am from London, UK.
In the last 25 years I have cooked a lot, studied architectural engineering, taught English in Spain and travelled Europe, Africa, South America and the USA.

I love to learn new things and help others learn also (I have been an English teacher … just saying!)

I studied Architectural Engineering at the University of Leeds (England) for 4 years and graduated in 2012. Last year I lived in Malaga (Spain) but I have since moved back to London and I currently work as a building engineer.

I love travelling, learning languages, meeting new people from around the world, working hard to achieve my goals and having fun in new and exciting ways.

PHILOSOPHY

Set goals in life and always have something you are aiming to achieve, whether it is a target for the next few days or for the next few years. However be flexible where things take you and don't be afraid to change course. Try not to be stressed out by life, and stay in contact with your close friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycle trip from Leeds (England) to Berlin (Germany).
Completed an 8 day cycle trip from my university city (Leeds), through the Netherlands, through Germany, into Berlin. The trip was over 600 miles and a group of 20 of us completed it together raising over £20,000 for the Multiple Sclerosis Society.
The trip was challenging but incorporated so many of my favourite things; cycling, discovering new places, meeting new people and being outdoors!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am half English and half Chilean. I like to use this combination to teach, learn and share!

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Croatia, France, Italy, Morocco, Peru

Countries I’ve Lived In
