Hey!
I'm Elise, from France and I spent a lot of time volunteering during last years: France, Norway, Spain, Finland, Czech republica, Slovenia to experience many things as permaculture, guiding, building...
About me:
I'm fluent in English and French, I'm able to speak some spanish and I would like to learn German and Finnish
I'm vegetarian and looove cooking
I'm more than used to work outside in the cold (my job as a guide helped me to handle minus 35 températures and long working day)
I'm able to work with tourists, with stressful situations, with last minutes problems
I'm a dog and horse person 🐾
I crossed France in 2021 by hitchhiking, from workaway to workaway, to discover some notions of self sufficience, permaculture, farm work and building. Then I hitchhiked from France to norway then Finlande , looking for new way of living and working. It's how i ended up in january 2022 as an expedition husky guide in the North of Finland. During summer, i work as a bartender and travelling around , looking for new expériences.
My plan for summer/automn 2023 is to alternate between hitchhiking, workaway, hiking and probably doing some small paid jobs until end of october (then i will come back to Finland working as a guide again). I'm looking for ecovillage, community or smaller family.
For the moment, the next skills I would like to learn or improve are:
-using plants for medecine, cooking, cosmetic: how to recognize them, to collect them and to transform them. I start to have some knowledges about this but it's just a begginning
-self suffienciency: I would like to improve my knowledges about it, discover other way of live in community, being more independant than I am already.
- building, concrete and woodwork but also renovation
-learning how to sail/ drive a boat
-how to product cheese (I love cheese aha), mushrooms
-wool work
-all kind of DIY: I like being creative and reusing things I found
As you can see, I would like to be polyvalent, able to do a lot by myself in the future. I love life in community even if sometimes, as everybody I guess, I need to be alone after work, for reading a book, hikking in nature or just having some rest :) My dream is to join one day a community of various skilled and open-minded person. I also would like to play chess in the most beautiful places in the world (always have my game of chess in my bagpack!), to observe a lot of wild animals in nature, to swim in wonderful lakes/fjords/seas... whatever, I think life is made of the very small things like this.
I talked enough about myself I think, all I can add is if I had to describe myself, I will say I'm curious, flexible and "learning by doing person" :)Intereses

Animal care/ farm tasks: I'm very comfortable with animals, because I spent my childhood with horses, dogs and cats. Could train your horses, take care of your animals. I also have experience with dogs/ sledding dogs, so I can help with training, feeding, cleaning.
Gardenning/ permaculture: I worked on urban farm before, also did a lot of workaways in permaculture those last years. It doesn't mean at all I'm a pro but I have experiences and I have seen differents way of work.

Ces deux semaines aux côtés de Mel et Nico sont passées beaucoup trop vite, et c'est avec un pincement au coeur que nous avons quitté leur petit coin de paradis. Il y a tellement de choses diverses à faire chez eux, ils ont pris la peine d'alterner tous les jours différentes tâches afin que l'on ne se lasse pas, et de nous laisser… read more
