Description
Hello!
My name is Marina and I am travelling with my friend Quentin!
We love to travel. We’ve visited many places and we believe that Workaway is the best way to truly experience a place and meet amazing people.
In the future, we dream of building our own tiny house in Switzerland, with a beautiful garden. We love learning new skills and sharing knowledge. We’re both very handy — we’ve already built a van from scratch and renovated a house.
We enjoy spending time outdoors, whether the weather is good or bad. We love taking care of children or elderly people, and above all, we enjoy cooking and reading a good book. We’re vegetarian, but we respect everyone’s choices and would be happy to cook something delicious to share a meal together.
We are an adventurous and curious couple, but we also value peace and quiet at the end of the day. We like to drink a cup of tea and meditate before going to sleep. We’re not really party people, but we do enjoy a late-night conversation from time to time.

More details about your skills
I have done lots of jobs in my life. I began being a lawyer and a teacher. I teached french and english in school. I also love being outside and volunteer. So I help farmers from my neighbourhood grow their food and I also go on walks with elderly people each Sunday. I am good at building things (since I built my van and renovate my house) and I really like to cook (and I like to taste new food too). I often do some yoga and love biking. I know how to swim and ski. In the winter, I am a ski teacher in Switerland.
