Description

Hi,
I'm Marlène, 40 years old, french, and travelling since a while now! After 1 year in Egypt, it's time to move and to discover others places.
I'm looking for places where I can learn gardening, farming, ecobuilding.
I am also interested to work in hostels and places where I can interact with locals and people from all over the world!
I have several experience in reception, housekeeping and restaurants. I can tell you more when we talk!
I am also really happy if i can find places where I can do paintings, macramé, decoration or others creations.
I am actually travelling with my painting, my sewing machine, material to do jewelery and others treasures.
I am also a fully animal lover, so, happy to take care of them too!
Before to come to your place, if it's possible, I prefer to have a phone call and to be clear about what you are waiting from me and our collaboration.

Thanks for reading and maybe see you soon!

More details about your skills

For several years I did a lot of different seasonal jobs. I've been a chambermaid, waitress, kitchen assistant, fish monger, and call center operator.
I studied in an art school, trained as a painter and decorator, in the course of which I did an internship in Séville to learn the technique of azulejos.
I've twice helped contruct a house based on straw bales.
And for three years I ran my own enterprise, doing carton handicraft. I did an artist's residence in Land Art.
For the last three years I have practised as a spiritual therapist, working on personal energy but also cleaning domestic energies in houses. I did a workshop to help people to connect to nature and themselves.

So, I can help to cook, cleaning common area and rooms in hostels, decorate places, paint walls, do Land art, or many other artistic things if it's in my skill set. I can also help with eco projects, if the work is not too physical.
I have a good relationship with animals too.
And on my way I will be happy to learn other skills with you!
