Description
Hello!
My name is Maud, I am 31 years old and I come from France. I am currently travelling around New Zealand on a Working Holiday Visa and enjoying the opportunity to discover the country, meet new people, and experience different ways of life.
I would describe myself as friendly, curious, adaptable, and easy to live with. I enjoy spending time outdoors, being around animals, and learning practical skills. I am not afraid of physical work and I like staying active and helping wherever I can.
Over the years I have worked in customer service, hospitality, temporary jobs, and seasonal work in New Zealand, which has taught me reliability, flexibility, and how to work well with different people. I am happy to help with gardening, cleaning, cooking, animal care, household tasks, and general maintenance.
I have my own car, a positive attitude, and I always try to contribute to a friendly and respectful atmosphere. For me, volunteering is not only about helping but also about sharing experiences, learning from others, and creating meaningful connections.
I look forward to meeting new people and discovering more of New Zealand through volunteering. -
