Description
Hi, I'm Cecile, I'm French and I love nature, animals, people and learning new things, this brings me a huge smile and warms my heart !
I'm a French teacher to non-native speakers, this job gives me a lot of happiness. I also love working in farms !
Hi! I'm Camille. I'm a 26 year old French teacher on a gap year. I love music, traveling and being around nature. This year, I want to disconnect a little from my regular life, connect with other people and cultures, and discover a life more connected to spirituality and human values. I would love to help in a variety of projects, in a farm or a spiritual retreat for example.
We want to discover everyday life in a different environment from the one we grew up in. We would love to learn more about our hosts culture and habits by helping them, and sharing ours by giving whatever skill we are bringing with us. We love giving a hand and are both very resourceful.Languages spoken

More details about your skills
We both speak French and English. Camille understands Spanish but it takes time to speak.
We're both very organized.
Camille :
She studied literature, language and education, up a to a master degree.
She worked in several schools as a French Language Arts teacher in France and in the US, mostly to kids and teenagers.
Camille has very good IT/computing skills. If you need help in that matter, she's your guy!
She can also make very good cocktails. :)
Camille cooked more than 200 crepes for a school open-house (and they were yummy !!).
She has a great sense of organization, planning and budgeting. She organized several events and parties from scratch.
Cécile :
She studied how to teach French as a Foreign Langage. She worked in non-profit organizations to help non French speaking migrants. She also taught French as a Foreign Language in universities.
She is very interested in trees, how they grow, communicate with each other.
She worked with farmers, so she knows how to use some tools.
She cut the hair of her brother several times.
She helped her parents to cut the trees in her garden.
She learns quickly and like to experiment !
Cecile is full of life and will bring your smile up every morning ! She is a great person to have around, and also has great communication skills, which makes her very trustful and reliable.Age

What else ...
We love to play board games. We love eating and sharing meals with other people (meals are a very important part of French culture).
Cecile doesn't like really sea food. Camille has a hard time eating spicy food.
We have a lot of experience and skills in teaching but we are here to disconnect about our life in France. So, we would love to help our host in their daily tasks, learn from them and share whatever we can to help!
We are looking forward to meeting new people and share our love for life!Some more information
