Hi I'm Stephane (or Fanou, it's my nickname) ! I'm a curious person, I love travelling because : learning, discovering, sharing, exchanging. At the moment I'm keen especially on gardening, permacultur, handwork (I'm good at it as I already made three campervans), construction. That's why I really like the concept of Workaway. I did some in France (horse farm), in hostels (housekeeping in Taiwan and Wellington, New Zealand), Spain, Poland and Lithuania. I've also worked in different fruit picking (mango, mandarin, champagne grapes).
About me :
I studied and worked as a journalist in Paris until 25 then I caught the travel bug ❤😀 4 working holiday visas (Australia x2, New Zealand and Taiwan, also a short year in Spain). I now work as a French teacher in Vilnius where Ive been living for two years.
I love that feeling of discovering new different things, understand the world, meeting people and getting to know some. Also of pushing myself outside of my comfort zone.Interests

We ate Helen's food at her… read more
