One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been to Scotland when it wasnt raining

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach English
Teach modern history
Teach bike mechanics

What I Can Share with Hosts

A beautiful old Spanish house with a nice sun terrace. There is a spare bed and a few spare mattresses. Estepona is small, very nice to look at but there's not much to do! Especially if the sun isnt shining (which normally it is so no problemo)

Countries I’ve Lived In

Bahrain, Colombia, Saudi Arabia, Spain, United Kingdom
