Travelling
Description
Hi,
My name is Rémi and I'm from Belgium. At the moment, I'm traveling through Europe with my van and I'm hoping to do a lot of volunteering along the way. I'm passionate about volunteering as I believe it offers a unique opportunity to delve into new cultures, learn new skills, and experience a variety of things. To me, this is the best way to travel.
Back in Belgium, I worked as a Youth/Social Worker but decided to leave that profession behind to pursue my passion for travel. At the moment, I’m working online, creating online exams.
I’ve also done quite a bit of volunteering, from helping rebuild houses in Sri Lanka after a natural disaster, to caring for patients at a refuge center in Myanmar, teaching English in Cambodia, and working on farms in Portugal, France, Italy, Sweden, Norway, Austria, Switzerland, and Hungary.
Apart from traveling, I'm passionate about Muay Thai, kickboxing, and sports in general, music, skiing, and spending time with friends and family.
Hope to see you soon!

Remi is an excellent teacher. He teaches his classes with creativity and dedication. He's very willing to interact with people and is responsible. We, the volunteers, students, and family, are happy to have shared time with him.

I had a great time during my stay in Guamal! Teaching classes, learning Spanish, enjoying the company of fellow volunteers, and getting to know the family. Interacting with the locals and immersing myself in Colombian culture was truly enriching. The entire family is really nice and they make you feel at home from the start.

I had the pleasure of spending a few weeks in San Gimignano with Don Gianni, and it was truly a special experience. It was fascinating to get a behind-the-scenes look at the workings of the church and to feel welcomed as part of the local community.

Rémi was outstanding from start to finish. He's a super friendly, laid back guy, with many interesting stories of his varied travels and work experiences.
He's super fit and strong, and a really focussed and dedicated worker. He showed great interest in widely varying tasks and was always available and eager to learn new skills, and was always… read more

I spent two fantastic weeks with Peter, Laura, Arno, and Indy, and it was an experience I’ll always treasure. From the moment I arrived, I felt warmly welcomed into their home, and their fairness and respect for workawayers stood out.

It has never been so easy for us to write a review about a workaway. From the first day, no, from the first hour, we felt that we had invited a special person into our farmhouse. Rémi is structured through and through and knows how to organize his day. Not only does he carry out the tasks we have discussed flawlessly, he is one of the few people… read more

I got to know Rémi in these 15 days as a skilled man who listens to the instructions very carefully and does the assigned job very good. Rémi was a great help for me. He helped a lot with cutting grass and putting the grass into piles. We would cut some grass using a machine and some using a scythe where it was too steep for the machine. I… read more

It was great with Rémi - only one week, but with a lot of good conversations, a lot of help and a lot of fun!
Wish you all good things for next stays and travel!

I stayed at the farm for 3 weeks and really enjoyed my stay. Anders and June are very friendly and welcoming. During my stay I learned how to drive a tractor, helped with collecting the hay, did some painting, helped with cutting down trees, etc. Highly recommend.

Remi was nice and helpful while he was staying at our farm for 5 weeks. He has been helping us to fix a fence for our sheep, building gates, building a veranda to our sauna with Pasi, helping to saw wood that we could build things with, shovel earth to fill up a ditch, etc. Remi will always be welcome back :)

I stayed here for 1 month and 1 week and had a lovely experience. The entire family is very welcoming and friendly. As there was an internship present to take care of the animals, I didn't really work with the animals. Instead I helped with different building projects, cutting wood, fixing fences,... I would definitely like to come back here in… read more
