Description

🇯🇵 こんにちは、
日本語はちょとへたです、ごめんなさい、でもそれは私の本当のレベルです。
４月から、７月まで毎日日本語の学校に行きました、４時間くらい。
２０１９も日本語を勉強しました、その時ワークアウェイも東京でしました。すごく楽しかった！
下で英語とフランス語あります、もっと上手に書いてあります。
今、東京に住んでいます、軽自動車を持ています。いなかが大好きです、それからワークアウェイをさがします。
ありがとうございます！
よろしくお願いします✨


🇨🇦🇺🇸 Hello!
After an incredible Workaway experience in Japan back in 2019, I’m thrilled to be here again for a year! In the meantime, I moved to Canada, which has become my adopted home. I’ve never returned to France because I love traveling too much! Coming back to Japan was a dream of mine, especially because I wanted to buy a Keijidosha (Japanese mini car) and explore the country from end to end. Mission accomplished! Now, as I near the end of my one-year visa, I’m looking for a new Workaway opportunity outside of Tokyo.

My first Workaway was with Asuka-san, with whom I’ve stayed close friends—one of the many reasons I wanted to return to Japan. When I arrived this February, I dedicated myself to studying Japanese, taking four hours of classes every day for three months. My level is still basic, but it allowed me to navigate my road trip without relying on English.

About me:
I’m passionate about art, especially illustration and hands-on activities. I’ve even taught graphic design and illustration in France. Recently, I published my first comic book with a Franco-Canadian author and became a tattoo artist in Montreal. During my last Workaway in Tokyo, I helped my host with graphic design requests, photography, and logo creation (you can see my work on my IG @artist.umi).

I’m no stranger to physical work! In Montreal, I often worked outdoors, so I’m very comfortable with hands-on and outdoor tasks. Additionally, since I have a car here in Japan, I’d love to explore the countryside and would be happy to use it to help out when needed.
Thank you so much for considering me as a Workaway guest! 😊


🇫🇷 Bonjour !
Après une incroyable expérience Workaway au Japon en 2019, je suis ravie d’être de retour pour un an ! Entre-temps, je suis partie vivre au Canada, qui est devenu mon pays d’adoption. Je ne suis jamais retournée en France, car j’aime beaucoup trop voyager ! Revenir au Japon était un rêve, notamment parce que je voulais m’y acheter une keijidosha (petite voiture japonaise) pour parcourir le pays dans son intégralité. C’est chose faite ! Maintenant que la fin de mon visa d’un an approche, je cherche une nouvelle opportunité Workaway en dehors de Tokyo.

Mon premier Workaway était chez Asuka-san, avec qui je suis restée très proche, l’une des nombreuses raisons pour lesquelles je souhaitais revenir au Japon. À mon arrivée en février, je me suis consacrée à l’apprentissage du japonais, avec quatre heures de cours par jour pendant trois mois. Mon niveau reste basique, mais cela m’a permis de voyager sans devoir utiliser l’anglais.

À propos de moi :
Je suis passionnée par l’art, en particulier l’illustration et les activités manuelles. J’ai même enseigné le design graphique et l’illustration en France. Récemment, j’ai publié ma première bande dessinée avec un auteur franco-canadien et je suis devenue tatoueuse à Montréal. Lors de mon dernier Workaway à Tokyo, j’ai aidé mon hôte avec des projets de design graphique, des photos et la création de logos (vous pouvez voir mon travail sur mon IG @artist.umi).

Je suis aussi habituée aux travaux physiques ! À Montréal, j’ai souvent travaillé en extérieur, donc les tâches manuelles ou en plein air ne me posent aucun problème, bien au contraire. En plus, comme je possède une voiture ici au Japon, j’aimerais beaucoup explorer la campagne et je serais ravie de l’utiliser pour aider si besoin.
Merci beaucoup de considérer ma candidature pour un Workaway ! 😊
