I'm hitchhiking from France to Mongolia. On my way, I'm eager to meet people and give some of my time and energy to help those around me. I'm curious about almost everything: art, sport, food, culture

Description

Hi,
My name is Robin, I'm from France.

👍 In June 2023, I started a hitchhiking trip from France to Mongolia, which will last one year, maybe a bit more.
The aim of this trip is for me to take the time, travel slowly to discover the world and meet people on my way. I want to discover culture, history, geography, food, and share experiences with local people.

🤝 I feel that workaway experiences are a perfect opportunity for this, as I love giving my energy and my time to help the people that help me during this adventure.

Before creating my account here, I had some workaway-like experiences, including:
👨‍🌾 One week of farming near Litija, Slovenia (wood cutting, taking care of the chickens and the vegetables, mowing the lawn)
🏛️ One week taking part to the organization of a festival of architecture in Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina (setting up exhibitions, video-editing, cleaning the premises)
👨‍🌾 One week of farming near Radanovići, Montenegro (making manure, collecting vegetables, moving soil and stones to make cement)
🧼 Two and half weeks in a hostel in Pristina, Kosovo (cleaning, changing bed sheeds)
💬 One and half week with a family in Skopje, North Macedonia (teaching French to the children)

Besides that, this trip is also a way of discovering myself.
I have partnerships with schools in France and I'm part of a theater and science popularization troupe, so I try as much as I can to share travel anecdotes and discoveries on my instagram account @robinbatard.
