William Home grew up in the Scottish Borders before moving to Newcastle to study for a degree in International Politics. After finishing the course he moved to Madrid to complete his CELTA training, and after doing so worked in a couple of summer camps in Asturias in the north of the country and a private academy of the island of Ibiza. His next few years were taken up with traveling. After helping a friend set up a charity in Nepal he travelled through India and Burma, before spending a year in Australia. Once he returned to Europe he continued traveling and working in the Balkan states before going on an extended trip throughout Portugal, Spain and France. He returned to Scotland to work for three months with a charity trying to regenerate the native Caledonian forests in the north and returned to teaching again too, this time in a summer school in Edinburgh. After this he found himself in Greece futilely attempting to help refugees not become a humanitarian disaster before returning once more to Edinburgh for another period of summer schools and Fringe festivals. This will be now his first visit to Poland.
