Description
Hello! I, Bella have just come back to my home in Michigan after spending the last year in France. I spent my last months in Marseille as an au pair through workaway, and the first part of 2025 studying pâtisserie in Agde. I'm presently resuming my degree in humanities online and hoping to do so while also working abroad. Before pastry school, me and my mom both stayed in France the previous summer for our first workaway. We did our best gardening, repair work, and meal hosting! I love pursuing meaning, I love when everyone's having fun, I love cooking, baking, and I love eating :)
We both love helping others and learning their stories. I (Holly) have worked with people of all ages, people with (dis)abilities, the elderly with dementia. I value meeting people wherever they are in the journey of life with respect. Having the feeling of love, acceptance, and belonging is so important to us and we always want to provide that for others as well.
Super easy going and positive! We both believe in life long learning and are passionate about learning new cultures and beliefs. We have a hard time staying idle and love helping others in any way!
