Hello there everyone !
I am Clement, a French born, proudly Canadian citizen that just decided to take a new direction in life after a 15 years international carreer in the Train manufacturing industry.
I am travelling the continent and willing to see all there is, the incredible sceneries, mountains, nature, history, alongside learning and meeting incredible people and cultures.
I am interested in many things, hobbys, crafts, skills and am always willing to learn more and about new things !
I have values i am strongly attached to, as respect for others, communication and honesty.
If any interest in knowing more, hit me up !

Cheers

Hi!
My name is Lili, I am french canadian and I'm currently travelling until summer (escaping cold winter) around north and south america.
I am a curious person who wants to learn all kind of stuff. I have experience in construction (paint & carpenter), design, artistic painting, farming (horses, cows, goats, poneys & chickens), plants, cooking, , interior design, restore furniture, housekeeping, music festivals and many other. Art is my way of being creative and without it I would be a very unhappy person. I am a film camera photographer and would love to share that passion with others. I speak french and english and learning spanish.
Since I started to workaway 2 years ago and met some incredible locals who cared to share their culture and way of living, it has changed the way I want to travel. I am just willing to help others in their life projects and get inspired by them.

Looking foward to meet you :)

Dejado por el workawayer () para el anfitrión (Experience beachside ...)

This is the first negative review I have written on this platform. It is not that I enjoy doing it, but I think it's necessary. I understand that everyone has different experiences, but this was mine.

First, I had a very short WhatsApp call with Daniel. He explained his expectations to me, such as a minimum two-week stay, starting early in the … read more morning because of the heat, and the fact that there is no phone service or Wi-Fi on the land. Everything seemed okay to me; I got a good vibe from him and was excited to help out with their project.

On the land, there is a living area, a kitchen, and a dry toilet. At the top of the hill, there are the volunteers' beds, in a very nice and cozy spot inside a large yurt. It is important to know that if you are looking for a proper house, this is not the place for you; it is camping-style.
As a volunteer, I have done different kinds of Workaway/WWOOFing. I’ve done farm labor in temperatures as low as -40°C, working 5 hours a day in exchange for unlimited food, a car, and a bed. Other places only asked for 2 hours of work because they couldn’t provide any food. At Daniel and Amy’s, I didn't feel like the exchange was fair. They ask for 6 hours a day, 4 days a week, in exchange for only two meals on work days. You get a bowl of oatmeal with one banana for breakfast, and for lunch, they buy the ingredients but you have to cook for everyone (Or sometime they by the lunch). Daniel doesn't really like to cook and Amy was always busy doing something else... When you work for 6 hours in 30°C heat for their project, you would expect them to prepare food or help out, but they didn’t.
The work itself was okay, but I didn't enjoy the vibe. It felt toxic from day one. The way Amy spoke to Daniel in front of us (the other volunteer and me) created a very uncomfortable environment. We felt stressed when she was around and didn't like the energy coming from their relationship. Also, summer was arriving and the weather was getting very hot. Six hours of physical work can be intense and isn't for everyone. By the end of my first week, I felt something was off. I had no energy left. My mind and body were telling me to get out of there (and the other volunteer wanted to leave at that point, too).
That’s where it all went downhill…

(Daniel was out for hours to a community meeting)
On a Sunday morning, I took the opportunity to tell Amy how I felt and let her know that, unfortunately, I would not be staying for a second week. I explained to her quietly and gently that I needed to leave for my health and because I didn't feel good anymore. I told her I needed to respect my limits. I was drained, physically and mentally. Something was off there.
Her reaction was, in my opinion, completely out of line. She got mad and started saying it was a lack of respect for not doing what I said I would do (she meant staying two weeks as we had 'agreed'). Then she continued, saying how she didn't like how people from Workaway only think about themselves and their travels, and how they are untrustworthy or unreliable. She felt like volunteers only come to take what they need and leave whenever they want.
She compared my situation to a lack of responsibility, because from her perspective, I should have stayed and worked even if I was not feeling confortable there. Her monologue went on for minutes, clearly intended to make me feel bad. At this point, I could see she didn't have any consideration for the my feelings; for her, the project was only a matter of free labor. In the end, she looked at me and told me that my work was done there and I could pack my bags and leave the proprity. The other volunteer was able to stay the night and leave on the next morning because she had already completed her two weeks, but I had to leave.
How altruistic of her for not giving me the option to find another place and leave the next day.

I truly think that communication and fair exchange were not something they managed well. In fact, I personally think it was a lack of maturity to react the way she dealt with the situation. I had higher expectations, and I have had much better experiences elsewhere.

I don’t think Amy or Daniel are bad people, but clearly, the reaction was out of proportion. I don’t think any volunteer should receive that kind of treatment. This is not supposed to be a place for hosts to take advantage of volunteers; they should acknowledge that sometimes it’s just not a good fit, whether it is from their side or ours. To make someone feel bad because they want to leave a place where they don’t feel comfortable is not acceptable. I just hope that my experience will help other volunteers understand that this is not a prison. If it does not align with your needs or values, you are free to leave.

We all learn, even from bad experiences, thank you for that.

Had a great experience hosting Lili. She was motivated, took good care of the place, and did her tasks with attention. We had great moments sharing meals and stories and she left awesome paintings that fit the place beautifully. I would definitely have her here again!

Jay was by far my favorite workaway in Mexico! As we are from the same town, it felt nice to feel at home! His place is very artistic and cosy! Up in the nature but near downtown Mazunte. Jay didnt had much work for me but was kind enough to give me a place to stay for 2 weeks in exchange of painting some artistic drawing on his houses walls! I … read more

Lili is a workawayer par excellence, organized, self-motivared, straightforward and with very useful skills matching exactly my needs in the house. Especially her work renovating my large table was more than professional.
Always in a good mood, so everybody in the house had a great time with her.
Thanks for your help!

What a beautiful workaway.
I had a good time at andrea's place. She has a good heart and she is such a welcoming person. I like how Andrea gives you the time and space to be able to discover the city and the surroundings. I think all workaways should take exemple on her. The house is a piece of art and the dogs & cats are the best. I will … read more
