    Travelling

  • Description

    I am a 23 year old woman who has just graduated from a Master in urban studies and ecological transition, driven by strong ecological convictions, and willing to build my life around these convictions. I am cheerful, dynamic, very curious, I like to learn, to meet new people and to discover ways of living different from mine. I am very willing and determined to help as much as I can! I already have experience as a volunteer in hostels in Northern Ireland and Puerto Escondido, both memorable experiences, I'm therefore eager to continue exploring this way of traveling !

  • More details about your skills

    I've volunteered last year in hostel in Belfast, Northern Ireland for a month, during which I did tasks such as cleaning, doing beds, preparing breakfast and doing the reception. It was a wonderful experience. I've just volunteered in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca, as a volunteer especially for the organization of activities. I also have an experience of WWOOFING, during which I helped to rehabilitate a traditional oven, to make ivy lye, to mow grass, to plant aromatic herbs. I also spent two weeks harvesting in the vineyards. I have experience in childcare and I have also taught French and English in the past. I can also do housework. In my life I have also been a saleswoman, I have done communication campaigns to raise awareness of the issue of waste, I have worked in the development of a company aimed at this same issue, I've managed the social media of a deputy mayor.

  • What else ...

    I've been lucky enough to be able to do a lot of extracurricular activities in my life: I play the clarinet, I've done a lot of contemporary dance and a bit of football. I'm pretty invested in ecological activism in France. I like reading a lot, at the moment I read a lot of essays about ecology or feminism, I also read a lot about these subjects by listening to podcasts. I'm open-minded, I like to have long conversations and to listen to different perspectives. I like to dance and party, but I also enjoy spending my days reading, chilling and going for walks. I like hiking a lot, and overall I just enjoy being outside.
