Description
Hi! We are Charly (28) and Roxanna (23), an international couple from France and England. We met while on a workaway in rural Canada and have been travelling and working together ever since.We are experienced workawayers and have also been work exchange hosts ourselves at our campsite in Quebec. Every summer I manage the running of the campsite while Roxanna manages our on-site restaurant - with the help of our wonderful volunteers of course! Our previous workaway experience is very varied, including nannying, hostel work, renovations, farm work and even sled dog kennels. Our latest adventure is NZ van life! We are so looking forward to meeting you and getting to know your little corner of this paradise.

More details about your skills
Roxanna's area of expertise is everything hospitality and customer service. She started as a bartender and waitress and has worked her way up to manager of a restaurant. Before this she was a nanny for a family back home in England and she has also volunteered on kids holiday camps in the past.
As a campsite manager I handle everything from customer service, cleaning, grass cutting, maintenance and some construction work (building picnic tables, sheds & fences...). On the side I've been helping on several construction projects (restaurant renovations, building a cold chamber, rooms, plasterboarding etc..) and I'd be happy to give you a hand with any project!
Age
28 & 23
What else ...
We are both lovers of the outdoors and will spend any spare time we have out hiking and enjoying nature. We will love any job where we can get our hands dirty and breathe fresh air. I am also a keen footballer and enjoy watching any team sports, and Roxanna loves all things arts and crafts.

Charly spent 3 weeks with us during a particularly busy period in our renovation project. From our initial communication we felt it would work out fine with him. He was extremely easy to have around as part of
the family, and very engaged with our project. He always worked extremely hard, regardless of the task,
and performed his tasks with great… read more

I've spent 3 weeks at Craig and Fran's place. They are very kind and made me feel comfortable right away. Fran's cooking is really delicious and healthy. The work is straightforward and diversified so it's never boring. The surroundings are nice and if you like running, biking or swimming it's the right place for you.

My two weeks here went by very quickly. I received a warm welcome, the work was very interesting and I learned a lot. Thank you all for this stay and especially Antoine who was a very caring teacher. Good luck in your beautiful and ambitious project.

Dave, Sue and Mike were very kind and made me feel comfortable right away. I stayed in the "chambre d'hôte" which was very nice with a private access to a gorgeous bathroom. I was starting from nowhere in terms of manual work but thanks to Dave and Mike I've learned new skills in decoration.

J'ai passé un excellent séjour. Coralie et Olivier ont été très accueillants et bienveillants. Travailler avec les chiens a été une très belle expérience et ils me manquent déjà beaucoup. Merci beaucoup pour ce mois passé avec vous j'ai rencontré des gens formidables et j'espère pouvoir revenir bientôt.

Thanks Charly, it was a real pleasure to meet you.
Charly is a very conscientious and hard-working young man. Even though most of the work was new to him, he applied himself 100% to every task and did it well. He was particularly interested in the dogs in our family, and was a careful and studious learner in regard to our particular way of… read more

This was my first workaway experience and I really enjoyed it. I was with there for five weeks and didn't see the time go by. They are very welcoming, and Louise is very kind and thoughtful. At first, working with the animals is a little bit physical but it is very rewarding and at the end of my stay I felt stronger and fitter!
