Description

I'm Fanny, a French traveler with an adventurous heart, who left her native land for the wonders of Ecuador for five enriching years. In this country of breathtaking landscapes and enchanting culture, I met inspiring souls who colored my journey with magical hues.

Initially an elementary school teacher for ten years, I then embraced my passion for yoga three years ago, guiding my students on the path to serenity and inner balance. My love for both professions has only grown, as has my desire to discover new lands and meet other vibrant souls.

Today, I'm in California with my partner, Roland, looking to breathe new life into our journey.

I'm Roland, a French-American, visiting the United-States for the first time! I just crossed the Pacific Ocean for 40 days on a catamaran from Tahiti to Peru. Then went to Ecuador and Colombia.

On a more serious side, I've been a CEO of a company I co-founded for 8 years. I took a sabbatical year, which turned into the best decision of my life. Now, I started working part-time remotely here in the United States as a marketing consultant.

I love teaching, sharing moments, have long and deep conversations, play all kind of games, dance salsa, play the trumpet, learn fro, others, work in the garden, build things with my hands or do computer things.

I speak English, French and Spanish Fluently. I also speak Turkish, German and Portuguese a little bit.

We aspire to live a Workaway experience, that adventure where sharing, learning and helping each other are at the heart of every day. We dream of joining a family or community, offering our help and energy while learning from others. We'd love to lose ourselves in California's unexplored trails, on foot or by bike, discovering the beauty of new landscapes.

And most importantly, we would love to meet a some amazing people to spend time with.
