Description
Hello, I'm a 52 years old French woman and my name is Cécile.
I'am someone dynamic and sporty. i have no special diet.
I retired in April 2019 and I planned to leave for an indefinite period for a round the world trip. Left in May 2019 I had to return to France (march 2020) following Covid after 2 months in China, 3 months in South Korea, 3 months in Japan and 3 months in Taiwan. I made different workaway (dog keeper, beekeeper, yoga center to grow and cook organic products, monastery...)..

After COVID, I traveled in Europe during the winter: Croatia, Greece, the Dodecanese Islands, Cyprus, Malta, the Azores, the Canary Islands, Madeira, Italy and its Dolomites… and in the summer I did long-distance hikes lasting several days or even months on the GR (long-distance hiking trails). The GR 5 between Lake Geneva and the Mediterranean Sea, including the Tour du Mont Blanc, the Bauges Mountains, the Camino de Santiago, the GR10 Pyrenees crossing, the Stevenson Trail (GR70), the Vercors National Park, the Écrins National Park, the Chartreuse National Park, the Belledonne National Park, the Mercantour National Park…

And I hope it's not finish ! I'm a globetrotter

I had the chance to stay 3 weeks in Polmak (nov/dec 2022) with Andreas and Astri. It was a very enriching experience. This couple is benevolent. They take care of their worker and allowed me to discover the surroundings (exhibitions, local markets). Andreas has no shortage of anecdotes about his life as a Sami in Norway. I feasted on Norwegian… read more

I’ve invited Cecil for 10 days.
My house is apiary. She helped a lot to my work. She understood my unique beekeeping task. I really thank her. Because she cleaned up my house. That’s obviously clean.

I recommend other hosts to invite her.

I stayed at Aki’s for a week and a half. I completed the frames which will then serve as support for the bees in the hives. He taught me how to distinguish the queen and find eggs, smoking, potting honey. I have seen the evolution to labelling and putting it in the consumer basket at the supermarket. A little disappointed to have missed the honey… read more

I stayed a little less than two weeks at Mika and Muko’s. I felt at home. During the day I was busy cleaning the house and the two pretty four-legged girls. Time passed too quickly. Mika and Muko love to talk from their lives, Japan and other countries they visited. Mika is an excellent cook and preparing dinner with her was super nice. I enjoyed… read more

Cecile is really hard worker. She never stops working until she sleeps.
We haven't got this much hard worker ever.
She is very neat and tidy. She cleans everywhere. She cooked a very nice dinner for us.
She is very active. She takes our dogs for a walk twice a day and both of the walks are very very long walks.
Hanavi and Hotaru sleep very good… read more

Hello, it was my first Workaway and I'not been disappointed. The work was very interesting. I stay 3 weeks in the site but with the Chuseok, I work only 2 weeks and a half. I work exclusively in the garden.
I appreciate a lot :

- cultivate the… read more
