  • Description

    Hello, we are a happy couple Manon and Brice accompanied by their 1.5 year old little girl named Zoé currently living in an orange VW truck 🧡 since now almost 6years !

    In 2019 we began a long 3-year tour of Europe until 2022..... We were lucky enough to be welcomed by many hosts in the different countries we crossed !

    We did our first workaway in Greece with a small local family in the north helping gardening, cooking, and taking care of children.

    Then we spent 2 months in Romania in an eco village with several other volunteers (during the first confinement, we gardened, cooked over a wood fire, wood oven, restored windows as well as furniture, built a henhouse....).

    Then we went to a family of ornithologists where we were able to observe birds, still in Romania.

    Then we went to Hungary where we were able to experience volunteering in two different cheese farms with cows and goats, we also gardened.

    Then we were also in Germany helping with the construction of a legendary path (we were able to experiment with tools that allow us to work the wood, the chainsaw, the circular wood saw, driving a tractor, we were also able to demolish old building).

    Then we went to Poland where we cut wood to heat ourselves in winter and cook and help tidy up , reorganize living spaces.

    Then we went to the Czech Republic to a family who has a few animals where we helped cook, repaint an old wood stove, cut wood, take care of a baby.

    Then we were in Slovakia helping a vegan family made a greenhouse, readjusting the fence for the goats and sheep, we took care of the animals on site we also cooked.

    Then we were in Latvia helping on a daily basis with household chores, gardening and the decoration of a small nature campsite!

    Then we went to the island of Saarema in Estonia to help a family who produce buckwheat on a small family farm.

    At the end of our Tours of Europe a happy event was added to our beautiful life! We are now three ! We've never stopped being Nomads.....we still live in our orange WV camper 🧡 and for 1 and a half year now, Zoé has been with us everywhere, even at work!!!!
    We have been harvesting in Switzerland every year for 4 years (including 2 years with Zoé) and we are lucky to have her by our side in all our work since the beginning!

    We are aware of the impact of man on nature and the consequences on our beautiful planet.
    We want to have experiences in the field of ecology, learn permaculture, meet locals, learn about different way of living the life ...
    We are two motivated young people, and one Very cute and open minded little girl always happy to meet new people who like to share, exchange, manual activities, gardening, animals, cooking, board games, music, photography, art, computers...
