Description
Hi!
My name is Simon and I'm French. In September 2021 I made the decision to travel around the world for one year. I am currently travelling accros Norway from North to South and I am planning to go to South America starting January 2022.

In France I studied communication and digital marketing during 3 years (Bachelor's degree). Appart from my studies, I do lot of sport like swimming, football, hiking…

I have already done some Workaway in Finland, Turkey, South of France and Norway. I really enjoy to help people, to learn new skills and to discover new cultures!

My plan for 2022 is to discover South America by going from workaway to workaway, I will see my next steps throughout my trip 😊

As a French citizen it is important to mention that I am fully vaccinated against COVID19 with two doses of Pfizer's vaccine.

Simon stayed with us for a week, with his friend Marine, and even though a week is a little bit short to really get to know someone, we got a very good impression of Simon. He is very open and communicative, and really interested in knowing about our way of life.

Thank you very much Ivar and Wirat to host me for a week at your place. It was very nice to stay in this beautiful place to help you with roof construction.
I really liked this culture exchange, to learn more about norway, to see (and eat) mooses, to discover Mo I Rana area...
Thanks a lot !

I helped her to welcoming customers and cleaning when the hotel was still open. After that, I did some communication works (creating videos, managing social networks..) and painting.

Thank you so much Runhild and… read more

Staying at birgitta's place was a very enriching experience. I learned a lot about gardening, seaweed, berries, cooking vegan food... Birgitta is a lovely person and she learned us a lot about norway culture. If you like to be closed to nature, hikking, swimming in a fjord, you will love Børselv area !

I highly recommend to come help Birgitta… read more

Simon - You and Marine have endeared yourselves during the 2 1/2 weeks you were here. Always willing to help, always in good spirits, helping above and beyond what is required, no matter what the task. My highest recommendations!

Simon fait partie des (trop) rares workawayers idéaux, son aide a été efficace et précieuse. C'est une personne posée, de confiance, très sympathique et intéressante et qui intervient toujours avec intelligence. Son passage à la maison ne nous laisse que des bons souvenirs et l'espoir de le voir revenir !

Une expérience très enrichissante. J'ai passé une excellente semaine chez Laurence qui est une personne très aimable et conviviale avec beaucoup de savoir. J'espère avoir la chance de revenir un jour dans cette très belle région.

I highly recommend him to any host.
