My skills
A friendly, easy to get on with, patient guy who just likes to help people. I've previously done disaster relief in Nepal almost two years ago, working with an NGO to build a school. And whilst staying in Mumbai, have helped publicise a newly finished Hos.
I'm good with my hands- don't mind getting them dirty, or worked. I'm a people person and love meeting new people too. I'm a jack-of-all trades but also know when to ask for help. You can't fail if you're learning!

About Me
When I started working without money being involved, that's when I understood the true value of work satisfaction.
Born and raised in Britain (a couple of hours north of London) I have worked many jobs, from multi-million pound companies to a guy called Simon who is a boss-come-friend who owned an independent business. I love most people (I can see a lot of good in people) and meeting new people of one of my favourite past times. Along with Playing music- usually with a guitar (any style but my specialities are folk, blues, and Spanish flamenco)
I've worked in Charity projects in Nepal in the past, Lincs2Nepal which help the lowest caste schools, of which I helped teach teachers, supported them in their learning. And All hands, an American based NGO that builds earthquake resistant schools and safehouses for villages outside government funding.
On this most recent trip I have stayed in Mumbai And I love the city, from the people to the noise, the trains and the food. I'm staying in a Hos in which I'm the second customer! And as it's a very well built site, I've been helping set up digital marketing and training the staff in IT work. They're nice people here.
I like seeing new things, being out and about. And my thirst for learning and experiencing new things is unquenchable.
