  • Description

    Hi,
    I'm a french canadian who always wanted to travel and feel other culture but never realy take much time to do it. This years, i decided that it is time to live my life for real and i will take a gap year from work and go to Europe for 2023. I work in architecture field and love it, but need new challenges. I think quitting the computer work a little will be a good thing and some hands work could be such an accomplishment for me.

    I'm very excited about this, but nervous too! I know it will be amazing though and hope to make some great meet.
    I'm going to Nerja for a few week to learn spanish, then i will travel over Spain. I intend to do workaway, along the way, in order to really understand and live like otherplace. I want to do my best and be really useful. When i commit to something i do it with my heart and all of my little person is on it! I don't think about specials skills right now but i am versatile and enthusiastic for a fact.
    Friendly and cheerful, i'm more likely a team worker, but can do the work alone without any trouble.
    So i'm new here, but how enthusiast.

    What else can i say about myself... I dream about working with Architecture sans frontière or other cooperative where i will feel that i could really help people and do some good. In other way, i would love to learn about sustainable development, ecological architecture and construction. In this case i could not only be useful to people but for the earth to.

    I realy hope that i can be a good help and honestly i think i'm reliable and quicklearning.

    That said, i wish for you and for me, only the best!

  • More details about your skills

    I work in technical architecture, but was in public work (marketplace and restaurant) for about 10 years before that. So i'm meticulous an ordered, but creative, jovial and sociable too. I don't know if that could be usefull in some workaway in fact, but this is it! :)

    i like garden and animals, but don't have specials skills with them.
    Truth is i'm open and ready to learn many things. I just want to be helpfull for real.

  • What else ...

    I'm the kind of person that is just so curious. I wil be enjoying all the things you could teach me and the pieces of culture you will share with me.

    I like hiking, biking, boardgame (but not the one that last like 6 hours+) and all the social event.

    I dont realy know what i could say to help you knowing me, i thing the better is to talk.
