Hey everybody
I'm Mélissa but I definitely prefer Mélou !
I am French ( You will know that when you hear my accent and my stories about cheese )

Whilst on the road and finding new places I am always on the lookout for news opportunities, experiences and meeting new, like-minded people.
I love life, laughs, sun and beers !

My aim for this beautiful journey is to learn about nature, sailboats (some projects are in my mind), new life styles that are more sustainable and eco responsible , permaculture, edible and medicinal plants, meditation, english (for sure)!

Melou is a world-class helper and she helped in every way imaginable during her one week stay--feeding the troops, weeding the garden, walking the dogs, making me laugh and painting an entire house... there is nothing she can't do well!

They literally do the job as if they are doing it for themselves and if you are not there to direct… read more

Melisa came to my house and was a great help , doing hard work digging in the ground and helping out on lots of things with the renovation, a very cool and positive person. unfortunately she had to leave to become a pirate on a ship, but she is welcome back anytime.
