Description

Hello!
My name in Ondine, I'm French and almost 24 years old. Two years ago I decided to travel alone to Norway led by my desir to make one of my childhood's dream come true. As soon as I arrived I completely fell in love for this country and I finally and simply decided to stay. As I am starting my new life here, I would love to discover more about the culture and learn from natives about their amazing country. Having some workaway experiences seem to be like a good idea to learn new skills, experience diffrents way of living, share new perspectives and point of view, and as a very curious person who love to discover I see also here a way to grow on a personal level.
I never did workaway but I'm looking forward to share my time and energy to help people and learn from them and their own experience.

Now if you want to know a bit more about me, I'll try to summerize! I'm a creative person (paint, carve, craft, photography, films, recycling/secondlife creations..) and I would love to share about what I know even if I'm far to be an expert at anything. It would be deeply appreciated to learn new skills and discover new arts on my journey!

I studied psychology for one year and I have a philosophy bachelor. Socilology, ethnology, archeology, history and debate are big interests of mine. I consider human kind really amazing and resourceful and that lead me to have big empaty for anyone. My passionate personality is also deeply devoted to nature. I can't imagine my life in a city. I need the calm and the perfection of mother nature nearby on a daily basis if I want to function correctly! It it why I decided to be as responisble as possible about it. I have strong values and principales when it comes about the proctetion of the nature in general and in all its diversity, which consern plants/animals and humans. So, helping at a project in this area would acually be an honor for me. Also, for you to know if we end up sharing meals together, I am vegetarian since I'm 13 but I can perpare my own food if it is not convinient for you.
If I can add other (maybe) intersting informations I could say that I am very independant person, I usually perfer to work alone even if I believe that I can learn a lot from a working in a team. I am not affraid to have responsabilities. I am very implicated in what I do (especially if I love doing it). I am a friendly person even if I can be introvert sometimes. I love to help and spend quality time with people. I don't drive. I am talkattive as you can see with this long description of me! But consider that as a desir of mine to give myself all my chances in my journey.
If you have any questions about me or anything feel free to ask :)

More details about your skills

I'm creative and love to craft. Even if I'm not so strong I can handle physical work. I love gardening and spending time in the garden to fix what needs to be fixed and improved what needs to be improved. I work with nature and not against it. I can help at creative projects. I also like to cook and bake cakes to share with people :)
I would prefer to help at a farm (or similar) as I want to learn from this kind of life as much as possible. It's a big project of mine to one day own my place where I can be almost self-sufficient.
