"Word of Mouth Travel" lmjakob's Profile

A little introduction

Hello!

I have always felt a need to experience new things, meet new people and to feel free (if, briefly). My mum always talked about her experiences living in France and I always dreamt of having those stories to tell my children.

Having spent a month living in Kreuzberg, Berlin over the summer helping to design and write a travel guide, I can't think of anything better to do with my life.

I work in a school in North London and having the holidays really helps to get some experience! In the summer, I am going to Santiago in Chile to write for an English language paper over there. Hopefully I can brush up on my Spanish!

The long term plan is to eventually be able to travel Central and South America in 2013 and write while I'm at it. Maybe, one day, even make some money!
