Description

Hi! I am Antoine, 32 yo, I come from the west coast in France. I've had the chance to grow up around the beach and green lands. I did mostly freelance work to live from my laptop and want to change that now =)

After the Canadian experience, my girlfriend and I want to build our own farm and cottage in France. I want to learn and work in a dynamic and welcoming environnement, to discover nice locals to live with for some time to have a rich and real experience of life in Canada !

I've grown up with a gardener dad, always running around an putting my hands in the ground to help. And I've always had my own little vegetable garden when I could since that time.

I had a WWOOFer experience in Ireland during winter. I also had the chance to have a permaculture training for a week. Also, I helped a couple of friends with my girlfriend for their home construction.

I also had the chance to live a year and a half in an incredible country in northern Europe : Denmark.

I’m Léa, I’m 25 yo and I come from the north of France.

I grew up in town and 2 years ago, I moved in a little village in the mountains in the south of france. I loved this experience to live in the nature. I really love to live outdoors and discover the surrounding.
I mainly worked in administration. I worked one year in a hostel and it was really a good experience, I was in charge of entertainment, showing customers the surroundings.

My habits are reading, hiking, gardening and animals.

When I lived in a flat with a small balcony, I used the smallest space to fill it with plants and make my little vegetable garden. I hope one day, I will have the place to build a big vegetable garden.

I always dream to come in Canada.
