Description
Hello!
My name is Jean-Baptiste, I'm 30 and come from the south of France. After 7 years working in engineering, I left my job in 2023 in order to travel around Europe.
It's a project that has been itching me for a while now : spending a full year doing mostly manual work, learning different skills, interacting with other cultures, meeting new people.
I've already had some experience doing wwoofing in France : I've worked in permaculture, and in beekeeping. I've loved these times, and am very much looking forward to renewing the experience. I don't have quite specific an aim as to the kind of work I intend on doing : I'm curious about many different topics, and will enjoy helping in eco construction, farming... Anything coming my way that piques my interest, really. In any case, I'm highly motivated to try new things, and a conscientious worker.
About my passions : I love hiking/trekking and climbing. I've been hiking in the French Alps my whole life, and feel at home in nature, and in the mountains in particular. Rock-climbing/bouldering are passions that I've had for several years now, and if I have a chance to meet some fellow climbers along the way, I'll gladly dedicate some free time to enjoy a climbing route or two. :)
I'm also fond of dancing, and learning new kinds of dances. Currently I'm learning rock, and ballet.
Looking forward to meeting you!

As said in my profile description : I'm mostly here to learn new things. :)
But I've proved to be a decent help doing wwoofing, helping on various stuff related to permaculture, helping around the house, beekeeping, cooking...
My official job being a software development engineer, I may be able to help in computer-related stuff.

Andy is a really funny guy, always full of communicative energy but also deeply laid-back, which is a great mix to have in a 'boss'. :) He and the other workawayers immediately made me feel welcome.

JB was a great help in what is a very busy time at our finca. We met in Barcelona where we spent a few days together and then he spent 2 1/2 weeks with us at the finca. He was quick to learn lots of new skills : using the chainsaw, olive pruning, lots of gardening particularly controling the weeds. We made meals together… read more
The work was varied enough, and I learnt a lot about different topics through all of it: olive trees pruning, umweeding, lime mortar repointing - a topic about which Jon has a really strong opinion he's ever… read more
