Travelling
Activities i am interested in:
Hello! I am from France and have been living in Montreal (Quebec, Canada) for a while. I am a Pilates instructor and am starting a leap year of travelling throughout July 2024 to June 2025.
Description
Hello folks!
I am currently on a sabbatical travelling and taking time to reflect on what I want for the future... I have had many chances to travel around Europe when I was earning a living as contemporary dancer but am looking to discover cultures and countries outside of Europe.
Back home in Canada, I have been teaching pilates and Yoga for almost 15 years now, amongst other jobs (working with children with autism in schools and even working in real estate... i know, very different fields lol!).
As a workawayer, I would love to teach pilates or Yoga, help out in hospitality, help on an animal farm or also help in anyway!

Elise went out of her way to make it down here on time, so we wouldn't be short on staff! She basically travelled two days straight. What a gift! You usually don't see that from the average volunteer. When she arrived i could tell straight away i could relax, because this was going to be a breeze.
