Hi !
I am Nathan and right now I am studying civil engineering in the civil engineering school Builders in Caen (France).
I am 20 years old and like to discover new things, have new experiences in life.
I have many hobbies like playing badminton or play with my music band as the piano player.
I hope to find a job this summer to pass my second year in my school and also to discover potential new way of living by living in a foreign country during some month.

Last summer, I worked at a construction a site, so I learned to work in a team, be aware of the danger in the workplace and so learned to be safe to be less exposed to potential risks. I also learn to use tools and did some by hand work during this job.
During this summer job I did last summer, I also had long days of work that I manage to assume very well so I suppose I qualified myself as persistant when dealing about long work days.

This is a request for review asked for by a university in France. Nathan stayed with me as a Workaway volunteer at the former Kařez–Zbiroh railway station in the Czech Republic, where I work on maintaining an historic/ heritage site.

Nathan applied through the Workaway cultural exchange programme for a 45-day volunteer placement, which I … read more accepted. He stayed at the station from 24 May 2026 until 20 July 2026 and completed a total of 45 volunteer working days during this period.

As with the other people who volunteer here through Workaway, Nathan was not employed by me and there was no employment contract. His stay was part of a cultural exchange: volunteers live at the station, experience life in the Czech Republic and contribute their time and energy to the many different things involved in restoring and maintaining an old railway station.

Nathan did not perform any commercial activities for the host business during his placement. His contribution was related to maintaining and improving the historic monument itself and improving the living and shared spaces used by the volunteers.

During his time here, Nathan helped with a wide variety of activities. These included general cleaning and maintenance of the station buildings and grounds; sweeping, scrubbing and mopping interior spaces; cleaning furniture and common areas; gardening and repotting plants; mowing grass and other outdoor maintenance; painting walls; moving furniture and helping organise the property; and preparing accommodation for other volunteers.

Nathan also helped with research into zinc-bromine battery technology and the RailVault concept, an open-source project exploring ways that retired railway wagons might be reused for sustainable energy storage and other open source applications.

During Nathan’s stay, the station was also home to volunteers from several other countries, including Ireland, the United States and Poland. This meant that everyday life here involved cultural exchange, shared meals, collaborative work and people from different backgrounds living together.

Nathan carried out the volunteer activities assigned to him and interacted appropriately with the other volunteers during his stay.

Although Nathan was polite and fully compliant, I was a little disappointed that he showed not much enthusiasm for engaging with the zinc-bromide battery project or working with me using ChatGPT. At times, I felt his focus was more on completing the placement required by the university than becoming actively involved in open-source projects such as RailVault.xyz. He also appeared to align himself with other volunteers who were strongly opposed to the use of AI, rather than independently exploring its potential within the project. That said, AI is a significant and sometimes divisive topic among younger people, so I understand why this happened.

Thanks for your contribution to the old station. We had a couple of rocky patches in the stay, yet all and all good. Hopefully meet again down the track. Much success with your studies.

To begin, I think this project is really interesting project with a lot différents things to do like gardening, cleaning and repair an old train station. It is also a great place to relax, get out of your (potential) stressful life because there, your are in the middle of the nature with forests and fields and hike trails. You are also next to the … read more
