ABOUT ME

I have recently worked as a Cover Teacher at a secondary school in Newcastle upon Tyne. It was my first year in education which was very rewarding and challenging.
I now live in Madrid working as an English Teacher. I really enjoy my new job and I love engaging myself into new cultures. I speak basic Spanish (baby spanish!) BUT I'm hoping to progress my language skills during my stay!
I'm really into the arts sector and travelling around the world. I have a degree in photography and my style is based around urban environments. Since I have I traveled to many places, I'm always keeping my eye open for a new photo.
My main interests in life are photography, film (mainly art house films and Dumb and Dumber), music, food, traveling and........football.

PHILOSOPHY

Try your best to do what you want to do. It's your life.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I havn't had any couchsurfing experiences before but I have met many people who have! And they have seriously recommended taking part.

Interessi

I know everyone writes the same interests on here, but I seriously like my films and music. I also like the smell of fresh coffee, the light around me when the sun is setting, trying new food and hearing a great song for the first time.

Here are some photographs of the places I've been to : http://adamwpottsphotography.tumblr.com/

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto
