JOB DESCRIPTION
SOMETHING ABOUT ME
I am a 36-year-old man living in the area of Pentre. I have an interest in radio communications and broadcasting, also small nations and geo politics.

I enjoy going out for walks and cycling and seeking unusual places I have not been before. I am interested in philosophising and helping putting the world to rights. I have a diagnosis of Asperger Syndrome and sometimes I find it hard to understand unwritten rules, I also need to be told about all procedures (both written and unwritten). Structure is very important to me in my day-to-day life. I like to go out for bike rides when I am feeling up to it; it would be great to find a PA with similar interests. I also enjoy wild camping and working holidays and being out in the fresh air.
