About Andrew M.

57 years old | Children's author, musician | Alone

I am a writer who bounces around between UK and Europe. some times I housesit and look after people's pets, as I am very fond of animals and have lots of experience with them. I am mindful of individual needs, and careful to be in communication with their owners when it is requested.
I am in my early fifties, I have lived in the UK (and a few other places) but now only visit here to check up on friends and help my mother. I have worked as a community musician, fine artist assistant, chef, caretaker, performing musician and administrator. For a year I lived with my ex-partner and her children in Paris. I was born in the New Forest in the south of the UK and grew up by the sea before moving to London and then out again. For a few years I lived as concierge on an organic apple farm in the mountain forests of Tenerife, with a couple of dogs and several thousand bees. I have also lived with cats, several pet rats, a rescued mouse, and have looked after pigs, chickens and ponies.
I have been vegetarian for over 30 years. I enjoy walking and cycling, and am rediscovering my latent artistic abilities. I am the co-author of a succesful children's comic book "Die Unschtbare Raumschiff" published in Germany, and the sole musician behind a double album "20 golden yolks" on tiptoprecs.com. Although I am new to Nomador, I have been on several successful placements using workaway until the pandemic kicked in. I have a full and clean UK driving licence. I don't smoke, I drink in moderation, enjoy cooking, and am familiar with doing odd jobs, getting wet and/or mucky and chopping wood! Please note my French is basic but I am currently re-learning. I speak a little German too and less Spanish than I should! I am triple Covid-vaccinated.
I have workaway feedback here: https://www.workaway.info/en/account/workawayer/tab/feedback. Thank you for looking.

Je suis au début de la cinquantaine, j'ai vécu au Royaume-Uni (et dans quelques autres endroits), mais je ne visite maintenant ici que pour surveiller mes amis et aider ma mère. J'ai travaillé comme musicien communautaire, assistant artiste, chef, concierge, musicien interprète et administrateur. Pendant un an, j'ai vécu avec mon ex-compagne et ses enfants à Paris. Je suis né dans la New Forest dans le sud du Royaume-Uni et j'ai grandi au bord de la mer avant de déménager à Londres puis de repartir. Pendant quelques années, j'ai vécu comme concierge dans une ferme de pommiers biologiques dans les forêts de montagne de Tenerife, avec quelques chiens et plusieurs milliers d'abeilles. J'ai aussi vécu avec des chats, plusieurs rats domestiques, une souris sauvée et j'ai soigné des cochons, des poulets et des poneys. Je suis végétarienne depuis plus de 25 ans. J'aime marcher et faire du

Paris, France - August 2022

Andrew s’est occupé avec soin de notre petit matou et de notre jardin. Rey semblait enchanté et les plantes plus vertes qu’à notre départ! Nous avons échangé avant et pendant le séjour, Andrew est très sympathique et arrangeant. Au plaisir de nous retrouver à nouveau pour une autre expérience!
