Description
Hello everyone,
I am Louise... I am a freelance journalist and french teacher. I grew up in a village in the center part of France (near Clermont-Ferrand) then I studied in Lyon, Beyrouth and Marseille ! But I love nature and this is where I always come back at the end. I am new in Workway but I did some woofing in Lebanon and Egypt, helping with olive trees, beans and maintening gardens.
I lived two years in Egypt as a french teacher and writer. I love arabic from teenage years and I also love my mother tongue, french ! I also like speaking english as I stayed one year in Ghana younger for an intercultural exchange ( but I have to say I forgot some of my english in between ! )
This is my way of traveling, being with locals, helping with projects, staying a while...
I love reading, cinema, cooking...

I like teaching french... I worked as a teacher for two years in junior and high school in Alexandria in Egypt.
I did many language exchanges to practice arabic too, I like this way of learning languages.
I like gardening, I worked during grape and abricot harvesting time in France and I took part in olive harvest as a woofer. I am patient, but it's harder for me when the job needs a lot of strenght.
I graduated from a journalism school, I have skills for sound, video, photo and writing.

The place is so peaceful, I love the donkey and the garden behind the house. I spent most of my two weeks stay inside the farm. What I enjoyed most, was to be really part of the project, I felt really useful and Slim was clear about what he was expecting me to do. We… read more
