Description
Hi ! I'm starting in March 2023 a one year travel around the world, and I would like to discover local life in new places, while helping you with your projects.
I had the chance to live two months in Scotland and did a student exchange in Québec, and these two amazing experiences made me more curious about the world.
I'm curious, open-minded, I enjoy outdoor activities and watching beautiful landscapes ...
I studied landscaping and horticulture, I love plants and gardens (vegetable and ornemental) and I would be very happy to help you with your garden. I also love to try new recipes with wild edible plants I pick up in nature. I like animals too, I can pet sit.
I like to hike, enjoy nature, read, draw and paint, amongst many other things !
See you soon,
Cécile

Every morning we had amazing coffee with Carolyn, and Richard on the weekends. We had lunch and dinner all together (very tasty!!), that was very nice too.

Our stay with Wilma and Harm was very nice! We felt welcomed since we met them, they were always making sure that we felt comfortable and had everything we needed. We had our private cabana in the jungle, with shared kitchen well equipped next to a pond and swimming pool. We had fresh bananas, avocados, oranges, and lemons everyday, it was so… read more

Cecile was an excellent guest. She is friendly, engaging, responsible, and fun to spend time with. She also knows her plants and landscaping very, very well. In one week she transformed a section of our garden with hard work and creativity. She came to us on short notice, and our only regret is she couldn't stay longer. Good luck on your trip,… read more

They showed me and the other volunteers things to see on the island, and even took us on a roadtrip to the Sunshine coast! We played board games (the famous… read more

Cecile stayed with us for two weeks and did a very good job in the herb garden. She has good knowledge about plants and gardening and helped us a lot. She is a really nice person and it has been a pleasure to get to know her. We wish her all the best for her next year of travelling and in the future. We hope to see her again.

My stay at Olaug and Bjørn's was excellent, I couldn't have wished a better place for my first workaway ! Olaug and Bjørn are very kind, very generous and do everything to make you feel at home. I did some work in the greenhouse and in the garden, it was very nice ! I really appreciated to learn about norwegian culture, language and food, to play… read more
