Travelling
Description
Hi,
We are Marie and Thibaut and we are 25 and 28 years old respectively. We come from France and one year ago we decide to let our old life behind us and start our travel.
Between October 2022 and March 2023 we were in Thailand, Lao, Cambodia and Vietnam. We did a six months trip in this countrys where we stayed almost the half of the time in a workaway.
In Thailand we were helping to fix the Rasta Baby Bar on Koh Phayam for the opening and at the end as waiter.ress in a marvel spot. Few months later we were on another island, Koh Mak, to work in a shelter with lovely dogs rescue by an inspiring and strong women
In Lao, a four stars hotel hire us as a volunteers to clean a dusty hotel not opened since the COVID and work with the horse and take care of them.
Finally in Cambodia we decided to do a last workaway in Asia, in the Young Wild and Free resort in Koh Kong to work as a bartender, hand kitchen and housekeeper just in front of the beach and the sunset.
After the Vietnam we decide to do a trip in Australia. So since April we are in Queensland where we worked during 2 months as a cleaner in Rockhampton and picker in a pineapple and pumpkin farm in Rollingston.
Our level in English is not so bad for French people (^^') but we would loved to share time with real Australian people to improve our English and as the same time understand and know the culture of the country.
We are able to do a lot of different jobs where it requires a lot of energy but at the same time we can spend cool and relax time with our host.Interests

LanguagesCreating/ Cooking family mealsMore details about your skills
We are independent and we can make the work by ourself. We have differents skilled, but together we can be a good complementary team.
[Marie] I'm a good cooker, and I can make a meal with what we have in our fridge (Thibaut is a good kitchen clerk and dishwasher haha). In other part, I really love animals in general but especially the dogs (I miss mine in France), so it would be a plus for me if you have pets at home that I could cuddle and take care.
I'm very patient, and if I don't have instruction during a part of the day, I can find a task by myself like clear the house or outside and just see if anybody needs some help.
[Thibaut] I can easily work in an organic farming and with animals. In addition to my job in France, every weekend I was working in a farm of a friend, I was in charge of the organic part of the farm. I have alreaddy work with bees and some sheeps. If we have to built something, with good explication, I can made it by myself or with some help of other volunteers.
If you are a family, we are able to take care of the children, both of us been a babysitter at a pint of our life.
To finish, we are good with our hands, so we are able to do some DIY.Age
28 & 25
What else ...
[Marie] I like to draw in my free time and sometimes I like to sing with people. But most of the time I just like to hang out with my friends and share a good time.
[Thibaut] I like to hike, specially in the mountains (we was living next to the Pyrenees, famous mountain in France) and take my travel bag. During my free time I like to play guitar and write some rap music. Like Marie, I like to share good times with people.
Since we are in Australia, we tried to get back to a sport way of life so we would enjoy to share that activity with our hosts.Some more information
