Hi
Hi, my name is Kate. I've been an expat for most of my life - we moved to Switzerland just after I was born, and I grew up there. I'm now living back in the UK, and not particularly enjoying it, so looking to move abroad at some point soon. Not sure where - there are so many places I'd love to go to. Thinking about Canada on a Working Holiday Visa, and then see where things go from there.
About me.....at the moment I'm a freelance proofreader, but I'm also studying for a TEFL certificate, since it seems that teaching English would give me more opportunities abroad. My real passion is for languages - brought up bilingual in English and German, also speak Spanish, but there are dozens more languages that I would like to learn. I'm hoping that moving abroad would give me the opportunity to do that - what better way to learn a language than to go and live in a country where it is spoken
