Hello Citizen of the blue planet !
My name is Xavier, I am a 35 year old engineer from France specialised in thermal performance of buildings ( the guy who try to save the planet in a big company who try to make money with it, it ‘s me !).

I am also travel addicted and need to cure myself as often as work allow me to do so. I had quite a few workaway experiences and a lot of volunteering / help exchange also using other websites. Anyway, that is how I found myself building an ecological sustainable, character filled straw bale house in a national park in Australia, that’s how I had the opportunity to work on a dinosaur’s dorsal vertebra in a prehistoric museum. Another project saw me discovering the beautiful Whitsundays islands while working on a boat. I did some « work camps » in Iceland (hundreds of volunteers coming to work on different cultural an environmental topics) as a volunteer and as a camp leader. I volunteered in Kenya where I took a census of monkeys and various bird species. I also joined in activities surrounding a school for refugees. I worked in a gear camp in Mongolia, in a monkey refuge in Bolivia, in a ranch and Canada. I worked in some other places around the world, building fences with aborigenal people, helping marocan women in a very tinny village, farming in Greece, working in hostels, restaurants, mooving furnitures, sorting macadamia nuts, etc.

I am not the « I need my comfort, beaches and tequila sunrise » kind of tourist but more someone trying to experience a country by living with the inhabitants and being part of a project. It has been my privilege to not only take away wonderful memories of these amazing locations but, hopefully, to have also added something.

I "recently" came back (in 2019), after a year off on the panamerican road, from Ushuaia to the top of Alaska. I am back at work now but I will still be looking for great volunteering experiences for my hollidays !

I am an hard worker and a quick learner. Try me !
