Travel information

I am currently

Activities i am interested in:

I'm currently travelling in Australia to explore the country, improve my English and to learn new skills in fields I'm interested in.

Description

Born in the countryside of Belgium, I love nature since I was a kid. When the weather is good I spend a lot of time outside. I like hiking, searching for beautiful hidden spots and observing plants and animals in their natural environment.
I would describe myself as a mix between an artistic soul and an adventurous spirit. I love singing, I can play the basic guitar chords and I enjoy drawing and painting. I'm never homesick, I'm not afraid to travel alone around the world and I like adrenaline. To try bungee jumping and sky diving is still on my bucket list.

I have a master's degree in biology and I worked as a laboratory technician in Belgium and in Malta before to start travelling. I applied for an Australian working holiday visa beginning of 2022 and here I am. My Australian adventure is the opportunity for me to invest myself in wildlife rescue and rehabilitation. I've been in Australia for close to two years now, volunteering with flying foxes, green sea turtles, dingoes, kangaroos and farm animals.

More details about your skills

Thanks to my studies I have knowledge about ecology, phylogeny and ethology, among others. I can prepare and teach lessons about specific topics in biology if that something you're interested in.

I worked around one year as a lab technician so I'm used to take care of the laboratory housekeeping, I know how to keep things clean and organized.

I have two years of volunteering experience with animal care, rescue and rehabilitation. I'm vaccinated against rabies and I learned how to handle flying foxes (Licuala Rainforest Refure and Batreach). I was trained to handle and to administer medication to sea turtles (Quoin Island Turtle Rehabilitation Centre). I worked with canines and can walk big and strong dogs (Sydney Fox and Dingo Rescue). I had the chance to care for orphaned kangaroo joeys (Wild2Free Kangaroo Sanctuary). Lately, I have been trained to handle large farm animals, provide them basic medical care and rear calves (Farm Animal Rescue and Friends sanctuary).

Finally, I'm a French native speaker so if you want to learn French I would be happy to help you. I'm used to practice French with non native speakers on language learning applications.
