Salut :)
My name is Arie, I'm 28 years old and I come from Herne Bay, United Kingdom. I'm currently working and travelling in Canada, and have spent the past 3 years working as Housekeeping Supervisor at Tyax Lodge in the South Chilcotin Mountains, BC. I love that part of the country but it's time for me to head east and experience Québec; a culture and people that I am fascinated by and want to immerse myself in. My French is quite basic at the moment but I study everyday and am slowly getting better, this is mostly how I spend my free time currently.
I am a keen learner and will try my hand at anything. I have a strong work ethic, enjoy outdoor work and I am in good physical condition. As I have become older I have realised that, for me, learning is the most important thing in life and the most valuable use of time. This is what drew me to workaway as I really want to learn DIY and agricultural skills.
I'm a very laid back person, my hobbies include fishing, hiking and sports. I'm new to workaway but so far I'm really enjoying the experience.
I am very aware when staying in somebody else's home to be entirely respectful of their routines, cultural norms and private spaces - I am polite, clean and open-minded. I have no specific preferences for food, I like to try everything and don't like to waste. I enjoy beer and wine. I don't smoke but I have no problem with others smoking around me.Interests
