Description

Hi! I'm Caroline, I'm originally French but I've lived in different countries (UK, USA, Germany) and currently Dublin, Ireland. I love team work, sharing quality time with people, cooking, discovering new cultures, and speaking foreign languages. My hobbies consist in trying everything artsy crafsty: painting, mosaic, wheel throwing pottery, handbuiling... and this year I want to learn woodwork!

I am taking a career break to focus on my current interests: spending time in nature, doing manual work (especially construction/renovation work), learning various crafts and making art. I've previously done two workaways in the Netherlands (in construction/renovation and organic farming). I absolutely loved it and can't wait go on my next workaway adventure!

More details about your skills

I have been a French and English teacher and love learning new languages so language exchange is definitely something I am open to. One of my life-long hobbies is painting: I mostly make paintings on canvas but I can also paint walls or furniture. Although i can't consider myself an expert, I enjoy working with my hands for all sorts of activities like DIY, renovating, building things, etc, and I usually learn quite fast. Every summer since I was a child, I spend some time in a family farm so I'm used to being in the countryside and walking around chicken :) I have also got some experience in picking fruits and planting vegetable seeds in a garden.

What else ...

Some of my favorite games are Dixit, Detective Club,Carcassonne, common card games, and trivia but I'm always happy to learn new ones!
On a weekly basis, I always try to make some time for fitness activities like jogging, cycling, stretching and meditating. If we're a fun crowd, I would happily take part in playing team sports like football, basketball or badminton.
I have a cat at home and would be thrilled to have cats (or other pets) to take care of during my workaway adventure.
