One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walked the Camino de Santiago which is a 500 mile walk starting in France and through northern Spain, walking really is a great way to travel and experience a place.

Teach, Learn, Share

Always happy to do language exchanges and can teach English, and of course I'm always trying to improve my Spanish which could still be a lot better.

I've got an iPod with loads of good music on it and a really cool little speaker that I often carry around with me. Happy to share and listen to music all the time. Not many things I enjoy more than hearing great music I haven't heard before.

Countries I’ve Lived In
