Description

Hi
I’m Julien , French , 34 years old.
7 years ago, I decided to take my backpack and leave to travel and see the world.
After a year back in France, to see and enjoy my family and friends (after 4 years away). I'm leaving for new adventures starting with Canada and later a descent to the USA and South America.
I have traveled to several countries in Europe, South East Asia and also Australia and New Zealand.
I discovered the principle of "Work away" early on my first trip and was seduced right away.
I had several experiences either through the WorkAway website, Help X or by the people I met during my travels.Also in several areas, in cities, islands or also in the countryside / jungle. And asking for several activities, hotel, consctruction, help in a house...I enjoy learning new skills and sharing mine.
I consider my job "Workaway" as a real job, I am serious, reliable and hard worker. I enjoy spending time with my hosts and also respect their private and family time.
Thanks.

Update May, Curently I'm on Ontario and I get my motocycle , so I can go anywhere.
