Descripción

Hello dear guests! My name is Thomas, I am 27 years old and I come from the French Alps.
I was lucky enough to grow up in a beautiful setting surrounded by mountains, to be able to ski before I could even walk, to watch marmots and chamois during wonderful hikes, and to go mushroom picking in the forest with my grandmother when autumn came around. These are memories of a privileged childhood that I ultimately want to preserve through new experiences and encounters, and the opportunity to live a simple and happy life.
In 2021, I graduated with a degree in mechanical engineering, but I think I had lost my way a little... Rather than committing myself half-heartedly to a predetermined path, I decided to try volunteering and embarked on a tour of France by bicycle, participating in wwoofing and community projects, during which I had some of the most wonderful experiences of my life and formed some very precious friendships. For two years, I discovered a multitude of trades and skills from passionate and fascinating farmers and artisans. I opened myself up to worlds I didn't know and, in turn, fell in love with woodworking, especially carpentry.
Since 2023, I have been training and acquiring new skills in a traditional French carpentry company and on projects I carry out for friends. It's really great to be able to pass on my knowledge and put it to good use for the people around me!

Que habilidades tienes?

During my past experiences, I have had the opportunity to develop skills in a wide variety of fields, but it is in carpentry that I have been able to gain the most in-depth knowledge, both in terms of design and manufacture, and then roofing and insulation. In construction, I also have some knowledge of stone masonry.
In agriculture, I have worked with friends who are market gardeners, livestock farmers and bakers, who have passed on a wealth of knowledge to me, which I have tried to put into practice when I have had the opportunity, for example by planting a vegetable garden or helping out in my friends' bakery.
According to the people around me, I'm not too bad in the kitchen, especially when it comes to vegetarian cooking, and I hope to have the opportunity to discover lots of new recipes and ways of cooking as I travel!
In fact, I generally love exchanging skills and knowledge, and I'm always curious to learn new things and improve my skills. I also find it incredible to contribute to the projects of people who have brilliant ideas, commited projects that put human and nature back at the centre of concerns. In fact, I would even say that this is the most important thing in my eyes. I am always ready to get involved and give my best when the projects and the people behind them convince me.

Algo más...

Generally speaking, I am quite adaptable and find it fairly easy to adjust to my hosts' lifestyle, and I enjoy sharing in their activities when invited. I am always up for a board game, watching a film, chatting, and sometimes I am also happy to relax with a book. As much as possible, I love exploring, hiking, cycling, and discovering the unique features of each place I visit! And as a bonus, if the opportunity arises, I would love to learn how to ride a horse, sail, or even paraglide (not all at once).
