ABOUT ME

*I am moving to Bilbao, Spain, to become an English Teacher.

I am a easy going guy who loves to live life by simple means. I love to surf, play guitar, sail, take photographs, hike, climb, ride motorbikes,garden, fish, play harmonica, read and write, and to travel. I am happiest in life when I can spend time in the mountains or by the ocean, enjoying the simple things that life has to offer....

PHILOSOPHY

Live to surf.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I travelled 20,000km in 85days by motorcycle with my father around Southern Africa. To share so much with my father was fantastic and very inspiring.

Sailing in a private sailboat across the Atlantic Ocean.

教，学，和分享

I feel that I am more of a "jack of all trades" than that I have particular skills. I feel confident in -

Cooking (for a dinner party or such)
Au Pairing (I have worked with children as a "Manny" and worked with children of all ages through coaching or teaching sports)
Sports Coaching
Handyman ( I like to use my hands to fix, build and repair things, with carpentry being my favourite medium)
Languages ( I speak basic Spanish, Italian, Afrikaans/Dutch, but find I learn fairly quickly)
Teaching (I love to teach in general, and find that once I grasp an idea, I can usually teach it with a passion and understanding to others)
Photography (I love it so, and am always excited about taking new photos/portraits
