More details about your skills
My fiancé (Joan's father, from NZ) & I met in Australia in 2012, while working together in the same industry : sheep shearing. We travelled and worked together all around the world for about 5 years, to follow the shearing seasons : England, Scotland, Australia, New-Zealand...
He passed away in a car accident in 2017 when we were in France. Joan was only 14 months old.
We planned to go to Mexico the same year to do a 3 months course to both become a scuba dive instructor. I went there with my parents instead (& Joan) and had the best experience.
In 2020, I became a swimming instructor in France. I've had lots of experience working as a lifeguard on the beach in France, and are well qualified with first aids skills. I love the water world and nature.
The best place to reconnect to ourselves...
Joan & I have a very strong connection in between both our families in France and New Zealand. We've been living in New Zealand on a big property with an olive grove for the last 2 and a half years.
I've been busy keeping the place tidy outside : landscaping, pruning olive trees, painting the outside of the house etc... while enjoying the kiwi lifestyle.
Since the 1st of April 2024, we've been back in France living life and spending time with our family.
We are ready to move on to our next adventure. So we are looking for a new opportunity to learn and explore.
Joan is an animal lover, kind-hearted, free spirit and very respectful little girl, just like her mum. 😊
