Description

Hello! My name is Arthur, and I am excited to join the Workaway community. Originally from France, I have had the chance to travel through several countries and experience incredible adventures. These experiences have taught me to adapt quickly, meet people from all cultures, and get involved in local projects.

My motivations:
- My desire to travel goes beyond simple tourism. I love immersing myself in local cultures, understanding their values, and sharing authentic moments with the people I meet.
- The idea of actively contributing to projects that have a positive impact on the community motivates me immensely. Whether it’s helping in a hostel, working on environmental projects, or supporting social initiatives, I find satisfaction in giving back while learning.

What I love:
- Nature: I enjoy spending time outdoors, whether it's hiking, swimming in crystal-clear waters, or simply relaxing in a natural setting. Every landscape has its own beauty to discover.
- Cuisine: I love exploring local gastronomy and cooking new dishes. Cooking is a way for me to discover cultures and create moments of sharing around a good meal.
- Languages: I am passionate about learning languages. This helps me not only communicate with others but also better understand the cultures and traditions that surround them.
- Meeting people: Every journey is an opportunity to make new friendships and exchange stories. I love listening to the experiences of others and sharing my own.
