France - from May 2025 until Jun 2025 View allDescription
Hi, my name is Georgie! I'm from the UK and have been travelling since October 2024 with my partner. He is returning home for work in May 2025 but I am continuing to travel on my own and spend time in France in May/June. My partner and I completed numerous enjoyable workaways in New Zealand and South America, and I am excited to carry on with these, on my own this time! (At home, I work as an Ecologist, though I'm currently on a sabbatical). I love spending time outdoors, in particular hiking, wild swimming and sailing. I've been learning French for several years now and am at an intermediate level, however I lack speaking skills and so I'm looking to improve these during my time in France. I would be very grateful for any help with my French speaking!
I'm clean, tidy, respectful and take initiative with tasks, and have always received very good reviews/feedback from previous workaway hosts. I'm keen to help out with any tasks you might need, from cleaning to cooking to gardening. I also love spending time with children- I have some experience working with children when I taught English as a foreign language in China.

I love being outdoors and in nature so am very happy with any work that is outside, such as gardening. I don't mind getting my hands dirty! I love pets and have some experience with farm animals.
I worked as a teacher in China, teaching English, for a time so I enjoy being around children and can help with English learning.
I might not be the best cook, but I really enjoy baking and can cook nice vegetarian meals!Age

Super efficient, flexible, respectful, friendly, easy-going, curious... and absolute dog lovers as well.
We could not ask for better volunteers - we were quite sad when they left!
