Description
I’m Léna, 25 yo, and a funny happy mix of an anthropologist & a waitress born and living in the South West of France. Making of me a very curious person in between a shy adventurous person nevertheless always up to discover new things, thirsty of new places to go to and meeting new people & a contemplative philosopher diving in books as soon as I have a moment.
Always happy to help, I’m a fast-learning person, I adapt quickly. I’m an adept of learning-by-doing.
My last WorkAway experience taught me a lot about myself and life (way more than expected). Being at a turning point in my life right now, wondering what might look like a life that I would enjoy, I’m instinctively coming back to this experience. I am searching new adventures to inspire a life that feels a joy to evolve in, navigate all the possibilities of a life among other lifestyles. And I want to make sure this journey is filled with new amazing people, new skills to learn and places to grow up in.
I live for never ending stories, daily walks, sharing food & learning new recipes as memories to bring back home, gardening, reading & getting lost in books, good old fashioned rock & disco music, sharing deep conversations and life lessons, laughings, building things on my own, climbing & stretching, fresh air from the sea & breathtaking landscapes… simply spending time outside.
I’m equally happy spending time outside with my hands in the ground & inside with a warm cup of tea and a good book.
I truly believe that we have so much to learn by simply sharing.

I would love to share French conversations with you, as well as English to help you progress if needed ! Currently learning Italian. Japanese language is very new for me, and the absolute beginner in me would love to learn more vocabulary and be able to have a conversation! And what a better way to learn a language than to practice it in the everyday life ?

More details about your skills
The first & only WorkAway I have ever done has been an incredibly enlightening experience. Quebec county, during summertime, I used to work for both a Bed & Breakfast and an organic garlic farm in the countryside (near the Appalaches mountains, Mont Mégantic). Cleaning rooms, doing beds, waitress for breakfast, along side picking up garlic flower, building a small warehouse (woodwork) for storage, sorting & packing for farmers market. I also used to take care of the personal vegetable garden of my hosts.
This experience taught me a lot about my love for gardening, living outside at Nature’s pace, and my abilities to care about a house and welcoming guests during their stay.
Other than that, in general I'm able to homesit, care about gardens, help in DIY’s and cooking, manage a meal service and a welcome/front desk.
