Description
Hello,
We are "the J's", a swiss bilingual (french and german speaking) couple. We live in a flatshare with 2 other friends. Julien is an engineer and Jeanne is a facilitator for collaborative projects. Additionally, we both speak English fluently and some Spanish for Jeanne.
During our free time we like to hike, bike, camp, cook, come up with " on the spot creative ideas", sing, dance, meet friends and family. Jeanne has a thing for participatory projects, poetry, collecting wild plants and come up with deco on the plates. She loves to collaborate with creative and collective thinking.
Julien has a passion for fixing stuff (electronic, mechanic and wood) , he will sure be looking forward to give a hand on manual project.
We have already joined several volontary projects : woofing-permaculture, helping setting up festivals, helping in social projects (camp for children, foodbank) or supporting farmers in the Swiss Alps.
We are so happy to experience Workaway together for the first time and invest in projects that connect us within our shared values. We look forward to share, receive, bring, participate and make your project grow. -
