Description

Hi! I'm Claire, 36 yo, from France.

I love doing Workaway during my travels because it allows me to meet local people and gain a better understanding of their culture (my greatest passion 😄). Without that, traveling holds less and less interest for me. And in the end, my best travel memories are the moments I’ve spent with people who have become friends along the way!
Taking part in cool projects also gives more meaning to travel, opens my mind to new universes or opportunities and I truly believe the world is a more beautiful place when there is greater solidarity.

I am fond of nature, animals, mountains, hiking, gardening, reading, writing, history, geopolitics and cultural details.

I am an approachable, easygoing, empathetic, curious, and independent person. I adapt easily and am comfortable working with tools (though I’m very bad at calculations 😂).

I graduated as a nurse and as a translator (I speak Italian and English quite fluently) and lived abroad for about 10 years.

Woofing experiences in the past 10 years :
- Gardening and general maintenance in a farm in Slovenia (2023)
- Building and gardening in a farm in Northern Italy (2023)
- Gardening and general maintenance for a lady in Bulgaria (2022)
- Gardening and helping with guests in a small hotel-campsite in Bulgaria (2022)
- Amazing eco-construction in Greece (2022)
- Gardening, animal care and general maintenance in a farm in Greece (2022)
- Gardening and building in a farm in Nepal (2016)
- Gardening, animal care and maintenance in an alpaga farm in Australia (2013)
- Gardening in a farm in Australia (2013)

I had a great time with Levi and Fabio! They both are really sweet and welcoming persons, they make you feel home right away! They live in a beautiful and peaceful place in the mountains. There is always something different to do at their place, gardening, taking care of the chickens, building, diy... I only wish I could have stay longer!

I came two weeks at Adi's place in July and I had a really nice time there! The place is lovely and Adi is a really nice, generous and interesting person, she will make you feel home and tell you a lot about Bulgaria and her vision of the country. She is flexible and we were working together most of the time.
Sorry for the late feedback, all the … read more

Claire helped us with different works in the interior of the house, she's very smiley, willing to help and to try out new tasks.
She's a very pleasant person to have around: always ready to give a hand and able to see the positive side of things.
Thanks for your help! Hope to see your again soon! Grazie!

Yiannis and Vanessa are two lovely persons. I had such a great time staying three weeks with them, on a beautiful land, it was hard to leave! Their project is super interesting, very organised, they always try to vary the tasks given so that you can learn as much as possible according to the evolution of the house. It is the right place for people … read more

My stay at Jules's farm has been great, too short though, you may like to stay at least 2 3 weeks. There's plenty of things to do, gardening, building, taking care of the animals. Jules is a super nice person, always paying attention to not let you do only hard chores. And that's what I like most: the possibility to diversify what you do. It was … read more
