Description
Hey everybody, my name's Remy Trahant, I am a 42 year old musician living in Boston, USA. I play guitar and sing and now I am beginning to learn to play bass guitar and piano.
I just returned from two Workaway home stays in Italia that were each amazing experiences.
I stayed for two weeks at Martin & Etain's sustainable farm in a valley near picturesque Gubbio and I helped out during the last grape harvest of the season at Jenn and Massimiliano's winery in Piemonte, picking in the beautiful Langhe.
I am a plumber by trade and in my free time I volunteer at an organic farm and I also volunteer at various food pantries and participate in political activism.
I am comfortable and experienced with staying in community living environments, youth hostels, camps. I like simple living and to experience the moment. I avoid technology and rarely use a smartphone.
I hope to share musical experiences with hosts and other Workawayers.
I am fully vaccinated and will comply with all testing protocols.
