Description

Hi !
My name is Ninon, I’m 18 years old, and I’m in my first year of university.

I’m a very curious person and I love learning new things. At first glance, I might seem introverted and a bit shy, but I’m actually delighted to meet new people, chat, and spend good times with those I feel comfortable with. I’m enthusiastic, cheerful, and I enjoy being helpful. I adapt well to my surroundings: I appreciate calm and peaceful places, but I’m also drawn to dynamic activities and lively spots.

I travel a lot with my family, often in our van where we can sleep and cook. Because I’m studying biology, I’m passionate about everything related to ecology and nature, and I love animals. Living in the mountains, in the French Alps, I enjoy rural landscapes, hiking, and winter sports (skiing, snowboarding, etc.).

Last summer, I toured the Republic of Ireland with my family in our van, and I absolutely loved the trip and the country! The natural landscapes and charming towns really won me over, which is why I want to go back this summer.

More details about your skills

Having had a cat since I was very young, I know how to take care of animals. I have a soft spot for cats and dogs. My grandparents keep beehives, and I love watching them tend to the bees. I’m quite curious about how they do it, but I’ve never tried it myself. My grandmother was a botanist, and she passed on her passion for plants and their care to me.

I occasionally do babysitting. I also cook a lot—I’ve always enjoyed making hearty dishes or delicious desserts for myself or others. I’d be delighted to share my recipes and discover new ones. I love painting, decorating my living space, customizing, or making objects. I have a good level of English.

Three years ago, I stayed with a host family for three weeks in the United States, in a quiet town not far from Chicago. It was certainly one of the best experiences of my life: integrating into a family, cultural exchange, practicing English in real time… Especially since they had a dog, which I loved taking care of.

What else ...

I love reading all kinds of books: novels, science fiction, fantasy, classic literature… I also spend a lot of time listening to music and watching movies or TV series. I enjoy taking photos to keep a travel journal of my adventures.
