Description
Hi! We are Emma and Laura, two French girls, respectively aged 21 and 25 years old. Our parents met when they were in high school and stayed friends, so we've pretty much known each other for all of our life :)
Workaway is a way for us to enjoy a real break from our academically/professionally busy lives, and reconnect with nature, which we feel is so important.
We are very curious and eager to learn new skills, especially hands-on. We'd love to discover more about sustainable living and self-sufficiency, which we both desire to implement into our future life. We also are striving to build more peaceful and intentional living habits.
Emma is a final year undergraduate in psychology in Scotland. She enjoys spending time with friends, hikes in the outdoors, taking photographs, yoga, reading about nutrition and psychology/spirituality, cooking a variety of vegan dishes, and deeply appreciates music, literature and cinema. She takes a profound interest in intersectional activism. She has a long-standing experience in babysitting, and practiced the accordion for a few years. She additionally has worked on a vineyard as well as several farms over the recent years. She would gladly try and teach French to anyone interested.
Laura is currently in Paris working as a trend researcher and culture analyst in freelance. She is naturally attracted to different forms of beauty, such as arts and nature. She is passionate about understanding the human, their emotions and behaviors, and love to connect with people through different practices such as yoga and meditation. She loves the outdoor, and to travel simply with friends and her backpack. She is keen to try and experience new things, as a way to grow. She is easy going, always smiling, and is willing to improve herself everyday, by experiencing the world as much as she can, through conscious living. She is very comfortable with children, she was an AuPair and she is regularly babysitting. She has always been living with pets, and enjoys spending time with them. And finally, she loves to get up early to enjoy the sun first lights!
