Description
Hi! We are a young couple seeking for adventure and new abroad experiences. We both graduated this year and are willing to try something else before continuing our studies. We both enjoy manual work, nature, animals (all of them), solving complex problems, helping others in general and making silly jokes!
We are traveling to Canada (and more specifically to the province of Quebec) because it's a kid dream of Lune, and because I (Benoit) traveled there two years ago and stayed for two months, As I really enjoyed the culture, we decided to go and stay there for longer (about 6 months)

More details about your skills
Benoît: As a computer science bachelor, I have a pretty deep understanding of computer (especially software), and sciences in general. I also did some basic machining as a teenager and generally love creating things with my hands. I have a great experience with teaching and really enjoy offering the knowledge I have to others. As a workawayer, I hope to work with my hands to construct, create, restore, etc...
Lune : I'm a graduate from Architecture school in Montpellier (very south of France), there I learned construction theory, and I can't wait to actually practice for real! For two years, I've been really looking into sustainable architecture (I'm a big fan of straw) and I spent some time helping in participatory construction sites. I'm not a big cooker, but I can make a good 'Gratin dauphinois'. Oh yeah, and I ride horses!

I hosted Lune and Benoit for a week and it was fabulous for all of us. They arrived in time to get out on a winter snowshoeing adventure in the local mountains and we also had some fun visiting local water falls and trails. They are self starters, great cooks and love to engage in conversation and share themselves. They helped me in so many… read more

We had an AMAZING stay at Tim's place! He is easygoing, funny and brought us to beautiful places de wouldn't have seen otherwise. With him, we had the chance to try snowshoeing, dig a shelter in the snow, and see some gorgeous waterfalls, and we only stayed there a week!
The tasks at his house were interesting and very rewarding. He was also very… read more

Kay and Bill's place is located in a very beautiful landscape. We really enjoyed to meet their friends, their grandson Bobby and to pet the animals! Bill is a great cook and they really try to make vegetarians feel confortable :)

Had a short stay due to our schedules and their's. They are doing a road trip with many places to see and things to do. They will do tasks specifically assigned but there are some things they are not comfortable with. We wish them well on their journey.

Catherine and her son were very welcoming to us! After a few days we cooked dinner together (both of them are chefs and the food was delicious), talked around a glass of wine and played games (now we are addicted to cribbage). During this 2 weeks, we switched between work and chill times, so we could even prepare our road trip and Catherine helped… read more

It took a few days for us to get to know each other, but we were great friends by the time they left. Lune and Benoit work very hard, they are focussed and cheerful and learn new skills easily. Their stories of different workaways were really interesting. Would highly recommend them. ;-) Happy travels, guys!!
