Travelling
Our next destination:
Yukon, Canada - from May 2024 until Jun 2024 View allDescription
English -
We are Clémence and Loïck, travelling accross Canada in a van, from east to west.
In our discovery of the country we alternate between petsitting, workaway and just traveling. We've left the east and are now discovering the west.
We both have a working-holiday visa (PVT), so no problem to work.
Before coming in Canada we were living in Paris, but we grew up in small towns.
Loïck is ingenieur, he finish his studies at the UQAC (Chicoutimi - Quebec).
He loves chess, sciences and fixing stuff and he hopes that one day he'll manage to catch a fish
Clémence is an editor but very versatile (also community manager, event organizer, administration...).
She likes books, being creative, organizing, watching movies and chocolate. She wants to see whales on both coasts and a wild polar bear.
We did odd jobs during our studies: librarian, hotelier, working for the city...
We love learning new things, petting animals, discovering new places. We're ready to get out of our comfort zone as long as we're having a good time. And we're not afraid to get hands dirty.
It's not our first time in Canada, but it's our longest. This time we want to take advantage of having more time to really discover life here, the magnificent landscapes, culture, wildlife and people.
The plan is simple: see everything!
Oh and we are good cooks ;)

Nous c'est Clémence et Loïck, on parcourt le Canada en van, d'est en ouest alternant entre petsitting, workaway ou juste voyage libre.
Nous avons quitté l'est et découvrons maintenant l'ouest.
Nous avons tous les deux un visa vacances-travail (PVT), donc pas de problème pour travailler.
Avant de venir au Canada, nous vivions à Paris, mais nous avons grandi dans de petites villes.
Loïck est ingénieur, il a terminé ses études à l'UQAC (Chicoutimi - Québec).
Il aime les échecs, les sciences, réparer des choses et il espère réussir à pêcher un poisson (un jour peut-être).
Clémence est éditrice mais très polyvalente (également community manager, organisatrice d'événements, administration...).
Elle aime les livres, la créativité, l'organisation, regarder des films et le chocolat. Elle veut voir des baleines sur les deux côtes et un ours polaire sauvage.
Pendant nos études nous avons fait des jobs différents : bibliothécaire, hôtellerie, travail pour la ville...
Nous aimons apprendre de nouvelles choses, gratouiller des animaux, découvrir de nouveaux endroits. Nous sommes prêts à sortir de notre zone de confort tant que nous nous amusons. Et nous n'avons pas peur de nous salir les mains.
Ce n'est pas notre premier séjour au Canada, mais c'est le plus long. Cette fois-ci, nous voulons profiter d'avoir plus de temps pour vraiment découvrir la vie ici, les magnifiques paysages, la culture, la vie sauvage et les canadiens.
Le plan est plutôt simple : tout voir !
Oh et nous sommes de bons cuisiniers ;)Interests

We were immediately welcomed into the family, the two boys are very friendly and playful. The daily schedule was pretty easy and nice: looking after the farm animals, walking the dogs, gardening, crafts and playing with the kids. And when we want: pet all the animals.

Clemence, thank you for all you accomplished and it’s been such a pleasure to get to know you.
Willo is an open-minded person, she always has a story to tell, and she cooks very, very well. She's also an artist who shares her art and taught me needle felting.
Working hours are flexible. I mainly worked in the garden, where you can let your creativity run free.
And in your free… read more
