Description

Hello, dear hosts !

We are a couple, Louis and Mariana, ready to help you ! 😊
We’ve met during a summer working season in France and luckily fell in love ! ❤️

Mariana is an italo-brasilian woman that traveled a lot and had already a Workaway experience. She usually works as a massage therapist and yoga teacher during seasons in Europe. She has done a variety of jobs such as a pet-sitter, dog-walker, Au Pair in the Netherlands, volunteer in Switzerland, housekeeper and personal assistant in France, travel agent in Brasil, coffee shop attendant and assistant waiter in Canada. She is very adaptable and flexible regarding jobs, as much as countries and people, as she loves different cultures, travelling and most of all: experiences !

Louis is a french man that has never traveled much outside France, although he loves to explore the outdoors and be in contact with nature as much as he can. He has a natural talent to find the best remote natural places and to find animals during his hikes. He loves sports and his job in the past 8 years was very physical, as he works with events, conferences and seminars. He is very adaptable too, having experience of kids entertainment in a camping, gardening and different kinds of construction work. He was inspired to travel more and he sees Workaway as an opportunity to improve his skills at the same time he travels.

Bonjour, cher(s) hôte(s) !

Nous sommes un couple, Louis et Mariana, prêts à vous aider ! 😊
Nous nous sommes rencontrés lors d'une saison de travail en France et nous sommes tombés amoureux ! ❤️

Mariana est une femme italo-brésilienne qui a beaucoup voyagé et qui a déjà eu une expérience de Workaway. Elle travaille habituellement comme massothérapeute et professeur de yoga pendant les saisons en Europe. Elle a exercé différents métiers tels que garde d'animaux, promeneuse de chiens, fille au pair aux Pays-Bas, bénévole en Suisse, femme de ménage et assistante personnelle en France, agent de voyage au Brésil, serveuse de café et assistante de serveur au Canada. Elle est très adaptable et flexible en ce qui concerne les emplois, les pays et les gens, car elle aime les cultures différentes, les voyages et surtout les expériences !

Louis est un Français qui n'a jamais beaucoup voyagé en dehors de la France, bien qu'il adore explorer les grands espaces et être en contact avec la nature autant qu'il le peut. Il a un talent naturel pour trouver les meilleurs endroits naturels éloignés et pour trouver des animaux lors de ses randonnées. Il aime le sport et son travail au cours des huit dernières années était très physique, puisqu'il s'occupait d'événements, de conférences et de séminaires. Il est également très adaptable, ayant de l'expérience dans l'animation d'enfants dans un camping, le jardinage et différents types de travaux de construction. Il a eu envie de voyager davantage et il considère Workaway comme une opportunité d'améliorer ses compétences tout en voyageant.
