Description
busco voluntariado en Salta en el mes de abril!

Soy una persona energética, me gusta mantenerme activa. Me encanta el intercambio cultural y conocer gente nueva y de diferentes regiones, me gusta mucho aprender sobre las historias de la vida de otras personas.

Además soy ingeniera química y medioambiental , y también me he dedicado algún tiempo a arreglar móviles y ordenadores, así bien como a la carpintería y al bricolaje.

En este momento estoy investigando sorbe omo generar electricidad con materiales reciclados, como un alternador de coche moto o un motor de patinete electrico, cualquier proyecto sobre generar energia meresultaria interesante!

Por último añadir que mi mayor pasión en la vida además de conocer nuevas culturas y vivir experiencias nuevas, es el arte y la poesía.

Lo que más valoro en las personas es que tengan buenas intenciones. saludos!

Hello, I am a very lively person that needs to keep active. I love getting to know new cultures, meeting new people from different backgrounds and listening about their stories. I have studied chemical engineering, I have worked reparing phones and computers and I have also been working on carpintery. To finish I must say that above all I love art and contact with nature. What I appreciate the most about people its that they have clear intentions.

My stay with Michèle was very nice. She is a great company and a very comunicative person. She has a lot of funny stories to tell, and she is a great cooker.

The jobs she asked me to do where quite easy and non physical jobs, so it was non stressful at all. We enjoied some walks on the nature and she introduced me to her friends, which they were… read more

Carmen est venue chez nous 15 jours. Tout c'est très bien passé, c'est une personne très sympathique et il est très agréable de co-habiter avec elle. Elle est discrète.
C'est une personne travailleuse qui n'a pas hésité à faire des taches qu'elle n'avait jamais faites avant.
Elle parle très bien le français ce qui nous a permis de communiquer… read more

Francais avec le traductor

Un grand merci à Adeline et sa famille de m'avoir accueilli dans leur maison. J'ai passé deux semaines avec eux et ils m'ont traité comme un membre de plus de la famille, m'incluant dans tous leurs projets, regardant des films avec des sous-titres espagnols pour que je puisse les suivre, jouant à des jeux de société...
… read more Mon travail consistait à poncer le bois et à le peindre, Adeline s'est assurée que j'avais toujours les bons matériaux pour mon travail et que je me sentais à l'aise. Le jour où je lui ai demandé de changer de travail pour changer, il n'a montré aucun inconvénient et il a facilité d'autres tâches comme tondre la pelouse, déplacer la paille ou nettoyer le poulailler.

Ça fait deux très belles semaines où j'ai réussi à améliorer mon français, j'aurais aimé mieux le parler pour que notre communication soit plus fluide, j'en suis désolé. Los paisajes en esta casa y sus alrededores no tienen pérdida, parecen sacados de una pintura del siglo XIX: prados hermosos de color verde con vacas pastando y casitas blancas con tejados rojos de fondo en los prados, vistas a un pueblo cercano con una iglesia muy belle.

Merci pour tout, d'avoir pris soin de moi et de l'opportunité de vous rencontrer et d'apprendre le français !

español:

Muchas gracias a Adeline y a su familia por acogerme en su hogar. He pasado dos semanas con ellos y me han tratado como un miembro más de la familia incluyendome en todos sus planes, viendo películas que subtitulaban al español para que yo puediese seguirlas, jugando a juegos de mesa...
Mi trabajo consistía en lijar la madera y pintarla, Adeline se encargó de que yo tuviese siempre los materiales adecuados para mi trabajo y que me sintiese cómoda. El día que le pedí cambiar de trabajo para variar un poco no mostró ningún inconveniente y me facilitó otros trabajos como cortar el césped, mover la paja o limpiar el gallinero.

Han sido dos semanas muy bonitas donde he conseguido mejorar mi francés, me hubiese gustado hablarlo mejor para que nuestra comunicación pudiese ser más fluida, lo siento por eso. Los paisajes en esta casa y sus alrededores no tienen pérdida, parecen sacados de una pintura del siglo XIX: prados hermosos de color verde con vacas pastando y casitas blancas con tejados rojos de fondo en los prados, vistas a un pueblo cercano con una iglesia muy bonita.

Gracias por todo, por cuidarme y la oportunidad de conoceros y aprender francés!

I’m very greatful about spending 3 weeks with Martina and Julian in Les Buis. I feel a radiant love that is born from the bottom of my soul. Sharing space with Martina has been an empowerment of life, the same way if some focus of light was born within me in an infinite way and I could also transform myself into a self who lives inside the… read more

Carme stayed with me for nearly three weeks. I am very pleased we have met, I learnt and was inspired in different ways. Carme is very gentle, polite, she knows how to give space to others and how to fit herself in. She helped me with everything I asked for and we did all work as a team. I loved the guitar and singing evenings :-) and our… read more

BEST WORKAWAY EXPERIENCE EVER. It was my 3rd workaway experience but I think it was the best by far, great walks on the forest and almost every day we went to see the sunset together. The lake is real and its amazing, they also have a boat and you can go inside it! We learned how to plant trees and take good care of the garden, still the best part… read more

When they welcomed me on their home I was travelling with my car, and I was a little bit lost, but they had no problem welcoming me on short notice. Although I spent only a few days with them, they were enough days to feel me welcomed and home since the first day. They exuded kidness, joy, and good feelings, as much as even now that it’s been two… read more

Carmen stayed with us for just a few days, a last minute arrangement so she could get away from the cold around Paris ;-)

But just in these few days, our love for her grew. She is such an honest and straight person, with such a big heart, and lively nature, it was simply a pleasure to spend time with her.

She did her jobs around the house with… read more
