  • Description

    Hi, welcome on my profile !
    I have been traveling for over 20 years, with more than 8 years spent continuously on the road. Luckily, I've been able to visit over 58 countries, 38 of them consecutively.
    Motivated but mostly a positive attitude and equal mood.

    People often ask me why I travel so much. Honestly, why not? It’s never too late to chase your dreams. For a big part of my life, I was grinding away in France, juggling endless projects and deadlines. Then one day, it hit me, I’m obsessed with traveling, yet I’d barely explored the world! Now, I’ve finally found my groove.

    I’m currently on a (very big) world tour, lucky enough to combine my passion for teaching and travel. As an EduCare educator, I focus on supporting underprivileged kids, teaching English and French, and making connections that go way beyond the classroom.

    Solo traveling has been a wild ride, every day brings new cultures, unforgettable experiences, and moments that remind me why I love this planet. I’ve always felt at ease with kids, and I thrive on creating meaningful interactions, no matter their background, culture, or religion. In some schools, I’ve been in charge of leading outdoor adventures and making sure children feel cared for, safe, and excited to learn.

  • More details about your skills

    I'm DJ with a good knowledge with internet/websites, social networks, multimedia, music, cinema, video editing, and filming (I have my own camera). I’m also fluent in French (my native language so) and English : I enjoy teaching both. In some places, I've created English conversation clubs to interact with children, organizing games and sports as part of the activities.

    I love swimming, skiing, walking and trekking. I also enjoy basketball and football, even though my skill level isn’t the best! But honestly, I just love playing for fun with students. :)

    Whenever I join different Workaway experiences, I hope to meet real local people, especially in small villages, to immerse myself in their cultures, foods, challenges, and, of course, share laughs. In short, I seek meaningful cultural exchanges.

    A few additional experiences: I worked on :
    - an eco-farm in Ohara, Japan,
    - participated in an eco-project for three months in Western Australia (Geraldton / Margaret River)
    - contributed to some projects in Phu Quoc, Vietnam
    - Siwa, Egypt with a Tuareg family.
    - A -lot- of different families around the world as a volunteer too.

    Lastly, just to note—I’m not particularly interested in manual labor, construction, or hotel work. I’ve been a teacher and educator for the past 7 years, focusing mainly on disadvantaged children. I’m happy to help with farming or gardening occasionally, but it's not my main focus.

    Looking forward to meeting you all soon!
