Description
We're a Swiss family of four currently traveling for a year. Our next adventure will be a few week volunteering project and we're eager to offer our diverse skills and enthusiasm!
Here's a little about each of us:
Samael (12) is active, playful, and incredibly patient with animals.
Sérine (14) is a social media whiz, an excellent cook, and loves both children and animals.
Jacqueline (50) enjoys gardening, connecting with people, and animals.
FX (50) is as comfortable with manual work as he is with computers, digital tasks, and solar panels.
In a nutshell, we're a nature-loving, engaged, curious, and highly motivated family ready to roll up our sleeves and contribute!
