Description

Hi, our profile is only for a duo but we are actually traveling as a group of three! Our names are Florence, Cosette, and Margaux. We are three college friends (age 21, 22, and 23). We have just graduated from Colgate University! We have done a couple workaways in the past, all of which were truly life changing experiences. We are hoping to continue our journey of staying with different hosts, traveling, and getting to live differently! We are all hardworking, efficient, openminded, and self-motivated individuals. Not to mention, low maintenance and easygoing people with a positive and kind disposition. We are so excited to live new experiences, learn new skills, and meet people with different perspectives to learn from. The simple things in life bring us the most joy. We love watching sunsets, hiking, animals, spending time with our friends and families, and just going on new adventures.

Although Florence (from NYC) is a city girl through and through, Florence deeply enjoys being outdoors and connecting with mother nature. Ever since a young age, she and her father would go on cross country road trips, sleeping out of the car, and spontaneously making pit stops to explore any national parks they come across. This has instilled a deep sense of wonder and appreciation for nature and the Earth. As such, environmental justice and sustainability are some of her biggest passions. She loves spending time with her family, whether it be running errands, watching a movie, or just cooking a nice meal together. She also enjoys drawing, beaches, campfires, thrift shopping, and exploring new hangout spots with friends! In addition, she tries to stay as active as possible. Her favorite workout activities include running on the treadmill, hiking, snowboarding, biking, yoga, and boxing.

Cosette grew up in Cape Coral, a city that finds its happiness in simplicity. Growing up, she enjoyed spending time outside in the sunny weather, taking in what nature has to offer whether at the beach or gardening with her Grandfather. Her father, a contractor, taught her the value of hardwork. While on building sites, Cosette watched her father build houses from the ground up. This led her to admire how her father, through dedication and perseverance through trials, could create something on a foundation that once had nothing. Cosette understands what it means to work, is curious about other lifestyles, and constantly willing to learn!

More details about your skills

Florence studied psychology and biology, on a pre-med track. She speaks conversational Chinese, and can teach you a couple of useful phrases! She enjoys gardening, playing with animals, learning new things, and connecting with people. She is excited to expand her gardening and farming skills, especially in a way that aligns with nature and the terrain instead of destroying or changing it! Florence also loves to paint, draw, sew, and take photos, which will come in handy for home renovations, and crafts with kids!

We also have domestic skills such as cooking, baking, cleaning and organizing, pet care, babysitting, etc. Most importantly, we are both eager to learn! So any skills that we don't have right now, we'll try our best to learn!
