Description
Hello,
My name is Zoé, I'm an artist (actress in France) and I love to work for Nature. I've done many works in the nature (fruit picking) and worked as a volunteer in a NGO in California for the national parks (planting trees, remove weed, build a way for scientists..). As I live now in Paris (for my job) i really miss to be in the nature, and I felt I wanted to be helpful on projects I like. Also my parents have a farm in south of france with many animals (alpacas, lamas, peacock, turkeys..). I love animals. By the way, I'm a vegetarian also. Not juging anyone, just can't eat it.

Lorenzo is a kind and interesting person, and this place can be a good fit if you enjoy a rustic lifestyle, autonomy and independent work. He is open to volunteers bringing their own ideas and initiatives. However, this experience may not suit people who are looking for comfort, close gui-dance or a highly social and collaborative environment.

My Workaway experience with Zoé was extremely positive, and I can wholeheartedly recommend her to any future host.
Zoé is a French volunteer with a wonderful combination of intelligence, curiosity, kindness, independence, and enthusiasm. From her very first message on Workaway, I could immediately sense her positive energy, her genuine interest in… read more discovering new places and people, and her open-minded approach to travel and cultural exchange.
One of the things I appreciated most during her stay was the quality of our conversations. We spent many evenings discussing theatre, cinema, literature, acting, and storytelling. We talked about Shakespeare, classic and contemporary plays, films, artistic creation, and the role of culture in our lives. Zoé is an extremely curious person who enjoys learning and exchanging ideas, and it was always a pleasure to spend time talking with her after work.
Zoé arrived here in Gavorrano using public transport and adapted immediately to life in the countryside. From the very beginning, she showed herself to be reliable, organized, and willing to help with every task.
During her stay, she worked extensively in the garden and helped me with several important projects around the property. She also participated in cleaning and maintaining outdoor spaces and always approached physical work with a positive attitude and plenty of energy. What impressed me most was her ability to learn quickly and work independently once she understood a task. She never needed constant supervision and could organize her work efficiently.
Together we also worked on restoring and improving the pond for the turtles. This involved cleaning, reorganizing the area, moving materials, improving the surroundings, and making the pond more pleasant and functional. It was a significant project, and Zoé contributed greatly with both practical help and good ideas.
Beyond the work itself, life with Zoé was very enjoyable. She is friendly, respectful, easy-going, and pleasant to have around. We shared many meals together, and since she enjoys good food, it was fun to cook different dishes and discover new recipes during her stay.
We also shared a love of music, culture, and the arts. The atmosphere was always relaxed and enjoyable, with many interesting discussions and moments of laughter. These human exchanges are one of the most valuable aspects of hosting volunteers, and Zoé contributed greatly to creating a positive and welcoming environment.
Another quality I particularly appreciated was her adaptability. Whether working outdoors, helping with practical tasks, discussing literature, or simply participating in daily life, she always showed enthusiasm and genuine interest.
At the end of her stay, it felt as though a friend was leaving rather than simply a volunteer. Her contribution to the projects here was important, but equally valuable was the positive energy she brought to the house every day.
I can strongly recommend Zoé to any future host looking for someone who is hardworking, responsible, intelligent, independent, culturally curious, and genuinely pleasant to spend time with.
Thank you again, dear Zoé, for all your help, your conversations, your enthusiasm, and the wonderful time we spent discussing theatre, cinema, literature, Shakespeare, and so many other topics. Thank you also for your valuable contribution to the garden and for helping restore the turtle pond!
I hope you will come back one day to see all the progress being made here and to continue our conversations. You will always be welcome in Gavorrano.
Thank you again dear Zoé, and see you soon!
