Description
This is my favorite way of travelling. Staying with the locals and helping others. My name is Marie , i am a solo traveler from Quebec, Canada. I am in NZ on a whv for 2 years. I gained a lot of experience being an Au pair and housekeeper in Canada, Australia and NZ. I learned about gardening, child and animal care and living on farms and on a boat.

When I’m not making coffees as a Barista, I seek adventures and alternative living! I like to challenge myself and to live minimally on the road. But the best part of the journey is always the people I meet through workaway.

I am so glad I contacted Britt and I got to spend some really good time with them. I loved taking Elkie to the park and spending time in nature.
If you like cleaning and spending time with a 1-year old, you’re gonna enjoy this workaway!
Thank you Britt and Alex for having me and I wish you the best!

Marie helped with the children and household tasks. She was fantastic with our baby and always very helpful. We had good times visiting Penticton and at our Solstice party. Thanks again!

Meike and Oliver are amazing. They made sure I was comfortable and it really felt like I was part of the family. I stayed 6 weeks in they lovely house in the middle of the forest ( by the way So Awesome! ) and I always felt welcomed every morning.
I will be forever grateful for this experience. Thank you SO much Meike, Oliver, Emil and Eva.
