Descripción
Hi,
I am Maguelonne, a French student in Gap Year in the UK. I am new on Workaway, that's why I don't have already feedback. :)
From September to February, I was working in a family of 7 children (2 to 13 years old) as an au pair (voluntary), 40 minutes from Edinburgh.
Since February, I have been working with horses, sheep, and some chickens...
Now my dream is to work on an English or Scottish farm, with horses, cows, sheep, ... to have more experience than I have already with agriculture.
I will be glad to work too in a B&B, or a big house with a team! All is fine for me!! :)
Just for your information, unfortunately, I am looking only for a paid post, because I need to pay for my next studies and my travel to the UK...
Next year, in France, I will start my studies to become a vet. In 2023, I will pass a vet exam, and there will be an English part, that's why I would like to deepen my English and learn more about animals farm, in the UK.
In France, I work on my neighbors' farm. I have been milking cows and making cheese (specially reblochon), since 2016.

Que habilidades tienes?
I have been working on a dairy cow and Reblochon farm since 2016, in Savoie (France). So I know how to milk, I make cheeses (Abondance, Tomme, and Reblochon), I take care of animals (cows in particular).
I replace farmers on their farms on summer holidays, or during some weekend in the year.
I am resourceful, and love nature and animals! Hard-working doesn't scare me, and I am used to working a lot. (My working hours in my French farm are 4:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.)
I know how to drive the quad.
I already did a veterinary internship, so I learned a lot about animals.
I am an au pair since September in a Scottish family, (7 children with home-school), so I am learning a lot about patience.
Interests: Archery, running, taking photos, drawing, animals, climbing, scouting, hiking, nature, skiing...
My "qualities": motivation, adaptability, resourcefulness, ambition, organization, autonomy, rigor, enthusiasm, creativity.
I hope I match your expectations!

Algo más...
I love to walk and discover the country and customs.
I like to participate in family life and play.
In France, I live in mountains in Haute-Savoie at an altitude of 1100 meters. So I often go in hiking, skiing, and walk.
Life in nature doesn't scare me.
On Sunday, I would like to go to catholic mass. So, if you have a bike to lend me, it would be very nice of you. :)
Thank you for your interest in my profile, and I really would love to work on an English or Scottish farm!!

It was quick but great. I learned a lot about lambing and it was so interesting.
All the people on the farm were friendly :)
Little advice for people who hesitate to go to Bella's place: go for it!
Thank you, and I hope to see you soon;)
I had 5 wonderful weeks with Harriet and David. They are two people very kind.
The work is easy, and it is only 3 hours a day, and we also can choose our day off. They will do everything to help us, or to make us discover the Scottish Borders.
