Description
I am Augustin, 28 years old from France, and I am traveling slowly in the world in order to learn concrete things (farms, animal aid, permaculture, hostels...), and to meet people :)

After a business school and 2 years working in Paris, I felt a bit useless in my job. That is why I want a change and to work closer to nature, and to connect really with people.
I backpacked through Portugal (helped in animal shelters), in Italy (permaculture, artistic hostel), in France (house and garden work) and in Belgium. Now, I took at least 1 year to travel through Oceania, enjoying family I have there and discovering new cultures.

Fluent in French, English, conversational in Spanish, basic Italian

About me, I like arts (music, drawing, writing...), philosophy, animals and people. I am interested in a more sustainable, meaningful and happy life !

Thanks for reading ;)

Amazing experience for my first time in a dogs shelter. The staff members and the other volunteers are so nice, the atmosphere is really peaceful and that is so good for the dogs. I spent 2 / 3 weeks there and I hope I will come back another time in my life. The balance between the work and the free time is really respected, so that you can cuddle… read more

Grazie mille Michelangiolo for your generosity during my stay at your home. I felt very happy, I learnt a lot of stuff and saw beautiful landscapes. The place is amazing, in the middle of the mountains and the animals !

I really much enjoyed Augustin's company and help. He's such a kind soul, very appreciative of all the little things that the day can offer. He's very much reliable and dedicated on his work. Every host that will cross his path will be very lucky.
Man, thanks for everything, I wish you all the best !

My stay at Erik's place was wonderful ! I have the feeling that I did a lot of things in 2 weeks and I learnt a lot. I enjoyed to take care of the chickens, to seed, to take care of the fruit trees, veggies, to help building the sauna place, to create art also and do drawings on wood... Erik has experience in volunteer jobs and is really a nice… read more

My experience was amazing at the sanctuary ! I learnt so much things about the animals, about activism and Animal Rights, and also about myself. it is a place where you can learn how to enjoy the present moment and stop being in your thoughts too much. it is really nice to see how you can help the animals and Alice Noel and Sonia are here to help… read more
