Hiya ! My name’s Bénédicte, I'm a 39 years old woman. I live in Besançon, a middle sized town in the North-East of France.
I worked as a secretary in a few offices, but mainly did lots of various types of volunteering in associations nearby : Food not bomb collective (free meals in the streets), animal rights (organising events, logistic...). Currently I take part in a collective rented place, self-managed, that runs different activities (second hand clothes, fixing objets, drawing, language lessons, concerts…). I plan, tidy, move furniture, do a little DIY, a bit of social media... and so on !
I love being part of projects that speak to my heart and convictions (ecology, feminism…).
I took dance lessons and enjoy dance very much. I mostly use my bike to go around.
I’m friendly, smiling, and I like to get to know people, but I’m not an “always chatty” person, I like quietness too : so time with people and time to myself are both important :-) I would need a room/caravan/or any small personal space to sleep alone at night, so I can relax and be ready for socializing all day :p
I'm a vegetarian (with vegan tendencies) and I like to cook simple tasty dishes :)Centres d’intérêt

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
I did Wwoofing in England (in Dorset) for a few months, about 7 years ago. I volunteered 2 weeks in an animal sanctuary in France in 2023. I was in Ireland for two months as a Workaway in the summer 2024 (gardening, housekeeping). April 2025 I just spent in Belgium in a small community (DIY, gardening).
I like that way of traveling, getting to know people through useful work, learning things, and taking the time to really be somewhere. That is why I would like to stay in one place for at least 3 weeks.
I only have basic skills, but I like DIY and construction, I would like to learn some more ! I would be happy with other activities in or outside the house, cleaning and cooking included.
I don’t have much gardening skills, but I’m motivated and don’t mind getting my hands dirty !
I carefully listen to instructions and do my best.
I love the English language, I learned it at school but even more so through songs, films and books. Using it to talk to people, that I quite miss !
Ich habe vor langer Zeit in der Schule Deutsch gelernt, es is nicht besonders gut aber ich versuche es nicht zu vergessen.Âge

Feedback
I liked that the work was varied : taking care of the pretty garden, cleaning, tidying or cooking in the house, and other little things.
People are real nice and committed, on occasions work can get hectic but there is always someone to help. I could find a good balance between work, social… read more
