Hello, I’m Ariane and i’m a 22 years old french girl.
After my Bachelor’s degree of History of art, I decide to leave Paris in order to go in Australia. I choose to travel by myself because I think it permit more liberty, and I would like to see what things I can make and realize alone.
I’m a rather sociable person, curious, and according to me, one of the most important thing in a trip is to exchange and meet people. So, that’s why, I’m interested by the workaway because I think that it’s the best way to share experience with people you don’t know and hear about new things, customs of a country.
In France, I studied in Paris but every summer I spend my time in my mother’s house near the beach. Overthere, I can swim, play volleyball, run, make boat excursion (because I have the boat license), paddleboarding … In fact, when I was there, I’m all the time outdoor to take advantage of nature, sun and sea.
What am I looking for in a Workaway ?
I’m looking for meet different hosts and learn about their experiences and way of life, that’s why I’m really interest by a community life to learn how a social group works in order to help eachother.
I think, I prefer outdoor tasks like gardening, landscaping, construction in order to contribute to help the community, share with people, doing something useful.

Teaching
Before going to Paris, during my high school degree, I was selling fruit and vegetable on a market. This first professional experience give me, first af all, the occasion to discover lots of fruit, vegetable unknow and show me how a market works and how to be a good seller. Plus, now, I know that I need a job where I can moove all the time, be productive, and work outdoor.
During my history of art study, I was a babysitter during two years. I looked out for two little boys, i liked playing and creating amazing stories with them.
I also participed of three cultural mediation with museums and associations. This experience teach me how to work in group, the management of a project and take the floor in front off lot of unknowed people.
To finish, this summer, I was doing an internship at fine art museum of Draguignan (which is a town in east south of France). I learn so much thing during this two months like working with considerable independence in decision making, how writing plate and text of a new gallery, tidying and organisating the stocks museum and working with painting restorers.
