  • Description

    Hello, my name is Victor, I am 26 and I live in eastern France.

    I studied material engineering for some time and fell in love with physics, the beauty of its laws and the deepness of its theories. However I didn't graduate in this field, so for the past three years I have been taking each and every opportunity to work in my area, from beekeeping to heavy industry, through wood stove installation and various workshops such as adhesive transformation, medical goods manufacturing, machining...

    From my understanding of my own path it seems that I can rely on my communication skills and I am a quick learner, which had me fit easily into positions without any prior experience. The backside of this is that I tend to struggle to stay for a long time at the same place, called by the thrill to engage into a new adventure before the work becomes routine or when I meet challenges I was not prepared for.

    As a person I'd say that, beside being a hard-worker, flexible and autonomous volunteer, I am rather sensible and quiet. So far I have volunteered three times on this platform and things went for the best each time.
