Description
We're Megan and Vera, based in Paris, currently learning French and working on our own creative projects. Megan is an artist and filmmaker and Vera is a jewelry designer. We both love furniture and interiors and enjoy going to the weekend brocantes in Paris. We've traveled together to many places: Japan, Germany, Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, New York, and hopefully many more through WorkAway! We're both quite handy (Vera especially) with fixing things around the apartment (we live in a century old building). Vera has worked any many set design projects and knows how to drive. In my previous NYC apartment I painted a 4 wall mural, and would love to continue to possibly paint more interior murals where they are requested! We are also both very interested in historical restoration as we would like to one day embark on our own project.
For our current travel plans, we are looking to travel and explore the Costa Brava area of Spain. We'd be happy to help with any care with animals, house sitting, renovation projects, interior design work, cooking, art projects, etc. We're very open, and keen on creative projects!
Also, you can find Megan's artwork on her website: https://meganotnes.com
