Description

Hello! I am a political science student in Paris, currently on a gap year in Istanbul, Turkey.

I signed up for Workaway primarily to work on farms, but I’m also open to other activities such as language exchanges, babysitting, construction projects, etc.

I am particularly interested in agriculture and ecological practices. I have already worked for over a month on a goat farm in France, and two years ago, I had a wonderful Workaway experience in a permaculture nature reserve in Colombia.

The four months I’m spending in Turkey give me the opportunity to take part in new Workaway projects. I’m excited to discover new agricultural practices, meet people from various backgrounds, offer my help, and leave the city to explore the rural landscapes of Turkey.

More details about your skills

I am highly motivated, in good physical condition, and eager to learn the various skills that you can share with me.

I did an internship on a farm and a Workaway in Colombia which I really enjoyed, and I would love to have a similar experience again. I was able to develop my practical skills and deepen my knowledge of agricultural work. However, I still have much to learn.

I am very concerned about the environment and would particularly like to learn about sustainable ways of farming and eating.

I also play the piano and a bit of guitar. I love music in general.
