Beschreibung
My name is Dan and my core profession is an accountant. I love travelling and meeting people and have been to 70+ countries so far. I enjoy all the different cultures and discovering new things. I like to have a go at most things including extreme sports. I am originally from New Zealand but have lived in England for four years and in Australia for twenty seven years. I am now living in France since early 2020.

Was könntest du arbeiten?
I am an accountant by trade spending most of my working life doing this. I have worked as a sales representative in real estate also mainly selling residential land. I am a creative person as I worked for my father from a young age in the building industry so I am good with my hands. My father had a hobby farm when I was young and so enjoyed doing things around the farm. I love all types of animals and have had cats and dogs as pets. I have had 6 workaway stays in France since February 2020 and have picked up many skills and revisited others. I have been the most time at a chateau (and still am) in Pays de la Loire. I am well respected for my many skils including gardening, repair and restoration work.
Alter

Was noch ...
I grew up with English which is my main language. Did learn some french when very young but am re-learning now. I have dual citizenship of New Zealand and France. I can live and work in the European Union no problem. With my Workaway experience so far I have learned and enjoyed many new skills.

Vom Workawayer () für Host (Learn about gardening, enjoy ...)

I stayed for two weeks at Julian's lovely wooden house in the woods. Great conversation shared with her in the evening and the work was varied and interesting which I enjoyed. I cut down and chopped up trees, stacked for firewood, built an extension to the garden shed and some carpentry inside the house. A very tranquil and quiet spot. Thank you… read more

Meeting Daniel was a real pleasure. A very quiet, easygoing, flexible, and courteous person. And with more than one talent ! He helped me mostly with carpentry and lumbering. I hope we meet again and wish him all the best!

Vom Workawayer () für Host (Experience and learn about ...)

Very interesting stay out in the middle of the Normandy countryside, very peaceful and relaxing and lots of animals. I did some tiling work and some patching and painting with limited resources but all turned out quite good I thought. Travelling into the nearby town of Ducey was quaint and not too far. I enjoyed having dinner in the back field… read more

Dan is a great workawayer. He stayed with us for 2 weeks and was very chilled-out, discreet and a pleasure to have. He helped with all sorts of miscellaneous repairs and cleaning. He took great initiatives, saw what needed to be done, worked very independantly and did everything in a very concientious manner. I happily recommend him to any future… read more

Mary and Xavier were very kind to put me up during these trying times of deconfinement and the whole family were very helpful and friendly. I spent two weeks at this chateau estate and thoroughly enjoyed my time and work here of mowing lawns, weeding, pruning, cleaning stone work etc. It was lovely exploring the beautiful grounds and seeing the… read more

Thank you Chloé for the experience at your lovely house in the very calm and beautiful hamlet near Le Quiou. I enjoyed my work there of painting all the window and door frames, putting up the bike racks and tidying the workshop and storage area. I also enjoyed exploring the beautiful region. All the best for you and your three daughters.… read more

My second Workaway experience in the lovely department of Cote D'Armor in a quiet countryside hamlet near the town of Saint-Nicholas Du Pelem. Sandra was very lovely, friendly and a good conversationist. Other than tending to the animals (chickens, ducks, geese and sheep) in the morning and evening I got involved in many small building and… read more

Dan was a brilliant worker. He is a perfectionist so may take a little longer but the work is so good it's worth it. He did everything including taking care of the animals, helping with a honey harvest, doing a wonderful clean of my oven, but mostly woodwork, making and mending all sort of things from animal houses to doors, gates, flyscreen,… read more

Daniel est très sympathique, curieux, et agréable. Il nous a bien aidé à ranger toutes les choses du sous sol, dans le jardin, la cuisine, régler la porte du garage et sa télécommande, et plus encore, et nous avons partagé les recettes de cuisine. Et discuté aussi de ce qui se passe en ce moment dans le monde.
Daniel ie amazing, he helped us to… read more
