Description

Hello,

I am travelling with a working holiday visa through New Zealand, and I am looking for a nice place to stay, where I could help with many projects as gardening, animal caring, cleaning, cooking...

For the last few years, I've been working in France as a journalist for a newspaper who aim to make teenagers and children read again. To evolve in this job, I would like to improve my English and this is one of the many reasons I am here, looking for a family or someone local to welcome me.

About my previous experiences
- I love taking care of animals. I use to ride horses, I had 2 cats et I have one dog now. My mother had chickens and I used to take care of them. Animals are really important to me. I find quite peaceful working with them.
-I really like trying new recipes and cooking for other people. My previous roommates would agree with that :)
-I know a little about gardening thanks to my mother, but I am really improving my skills now, because I am currently doing gardening (lawn mowing, spreading soil, seeding...). And more importantly, I am eager to keep learning about it!
-I am a clean person, I enjoy when stuff are tidy (but I am not maniac either)

Few word more about who I am : I am sociable by nature, I love having people around me. I also adapt easily and have a particular sense of responsibility. I am keen to take part in setting up projects with you, and help you with your daily tasks at the same time!

If my profile fit with what you are looking for, send me a message :)

I used to live in a flat sharing for my studies and I used to cook a lot for my roommates, and enjoying it.

About animals : I really like taking care of them (take them to a walk, feed them, pet them...). I often take care of my father dog, a very stubborn husky.

About other skills : I have painted few times (my bedroom, my garage's door...).
