Description
Hello, my name is Sylvain, I am 30 years old and I live in France.
For the past two years, I have been working on personal development to get to know myself better and live more in line with my aspirations. Today, I want to turn this reflection into action by taking up a personal challenge: traveling alone in an English-speaking country. The WWOOF seems to be the best way to get out of my comfort zone while sharing the daily life of passionate people.
After studying management and nature protection, I have been working for six years in the preservation of water and aquatic environments. I have already participated in a WWOOF in Norway, where I helped build a frame, cared for sled dogs and goats, and participated in the daily tasks of the farm. At the same time, Im currently helping a friend to build her house and her farm in straw soil.
I like outdoor activities, hiking, cooking, reading and rock dancing. I am also a volunteer in an association that brings together citizens and farmers around tree planting projects.
I hope to bring my energy, my seriousness and my desire to learn, while discovering your way of life, improving my English and sharing a beautiful human experience. -

More details about your skills
I like manual activities and I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty! I did a WWOOF in Norway where I helped build a barn extension, fed the sled dogs and participated in daily tasks.
I studied management and nature protection, and I like projects related to the environment. In particular, I have participated in hedge planting and I am currently helping a friend build a house out of straw soil.
I enjoy cooking, I love children and I’ve been dancing rock for a year and a half. On the IT side, I have a good command of QGIS and I can manage Canva. I am also trained in first aid, in both physical and mental health.
I am someone curious, reliable and always ready to learn new things! -
