Description

Hi! We are Francis and Valérie, a French-Canadian couple who love nature, hands-on work, and sustainable living. We speak French and English fluently and are learning Spanish.

We are active, healthy, and hardworking people who take pride in doing things well. We enjoy gardening, hiking, fishing, snorkeling, and living close to the land.

Valérie is a physiotherapist in Canada with strong skills in gardening, cooking, and practical building projects. Francis is a licensed plumber and a very versatile handyman, experienced in repairs, maintenance, and problem-solving.

We've been together for 5 years - we did multiple trips, house flips, hiking, camping, etc. together. We are a great team! We are currently taking a career break to travel!

We are reliable, motivated, and eager to learn while contributing meaningfully to our host.
