Description
Hi, I'm Marylou!
I'm currently learning English in Vancouver, and I'm planning to stay one more month in Canada.
I understand English well, but I want to keep improving my speaking skills — that's why this kind of experience is perfect for me! I speak French natively and Spanish fluently, so feel free to practice with me.
I love discovering new cultures and living authentic experiences. I'm curious, hardworking and easy-going.
I have a wide range of skills : I can cook and work in a kitchen, take care of children, look after dogs and cats, do some gardening, handle basic horse riding, and I'm also comfortable with manual work.
I'm genuinely excited to contribute, learn new skills and connect with locals through this kind of authentic experience! -
