Description
Hi there! I'm looking for workaway opportunities where I can improve my level of French. I would be very open to language exchanges where I can practice speaking French with native speakers. In my spare time, I enjoy all sports especially hockey, football, and rugby, and also spend a lot of my free time reading and cooking. I also love reading about psychology and history.

Murray was a really super workawayer ! He stayed with us for two weeks, and we were very sad when he had to leave.

Many thanks to him!

Catherine et sa famille ont été des hôtes fantastiques. J'ai séjourné chez Catherine pendant un mois et je me suis immédiatement sentie accueillie dans leur maison.

Merci beaucoup Manon et Sebastian! Ils ont été des hôtes fantastiques. Ils ont été très gentils et m'ont beaucoup aidé avec la langue. Aussi, ils ont été très patients avec moi lorsque j'avais des difficultés à parler français. Le travail était très agréable, équitable et jamais trop difficile. Je recommande vivement Manon et Sebastian!

Merci beaucoup Murray. Il nous a énormément aidés dans le travail et à la maison. Il est très drôle, dynamique et à soif d'apprendre et de perfectionner la langue française. C'était un plaisir que de l'avoir pendant 15 jours.

We were very happy to host Murray for 2 weeks. He worked well and integrated perfectly with our family. He's polite and eager to learn. It was a great experience for us who became hosts recently!

Clement and Clara were super hosts! They were so welcoming and made my first workaway experience a great one. I spent two weeks working on the renovation of their new home and I really enjoyed it. Additionally, Clement and Clara provided me with plenty of opportunities for me to improve my French.
