Help a little and learn a lot

This is a space for cultural exchange, learning, and personal growth. You'll improve your conversational English, feel safe and welcome, and have time to be yourself. We value real connection, so we’ll chat plenty beforehand to make sure it’s a good fit for both.

Hi, I'm Andy. I enjoy spending time with people who are curious about this strange and wonderful world we live in, people who care about others and want to grow through new experiences. Hosting has taught me a lot, and I continue to learn from the incredible people I meet along the way. I consider myself well-educated and believe life is a constant learning journey. I enjoy music of all kinds, good films, writing, documentaries, and topics like sustainability, psychology, politics, philosophy, history, and technology. I’ve got a good sense of humour and love sharing stories, laughter, and meaningful conversations. I live with my partner Joe, who is a kind, grounded, and experienced traveller. We’re not very traditional and welcome people from all walks of life, just not those who are close-minded, prejudiced or inconsiderate. If you have questions, just ask! I’m always happy to chat and make sure expectations are clear on both sides before anything is confirmed. We treat the people we host with respect, and we expect the same in return. I value honesty, independence, and open communication. This space is best suited to thoughtful, independent, free-thinking people who are here for true cultural exchange and personal growth. If this is new for you, that’s okay, We also travelled and lived abroad when younger. I always reply to messages, and I’m more likely to reach out if it’s clear you’ve read my profile and understand what I’m offering. It’s important to me that your stay feels right for both of us.
