Description

Hi there,

My name is Josée Maurice from Montréal, Canada. I'm a full-time traveller who speaks fluent English and French, and learning Español slowly but surely :).

I absolutely love the outdoors. I did my masters in Sustainable Development, focusing specifically on water & wastewater infrastructure but my interests spread wide, I love to learn about agriculture, micro farming, economic development, community work and more. I am motivated by self-sustaining communities/farms and am hoping to gain more practical experience working in these types of environments. Contributing to the community I'm living in (be it short term or long term) is also extremely important to me.

My favourite place in the world are the Canadian Rockies, because I feel happiest trekking in the mountains with my friends but I also love spending time by and learning about the ocean through diving and surfing. I hope to obtain my DiveMasters in the Philippines next year.

Looking forward to connecting!
