Description

Born in France, i moved to Canada when i was 9. Catapulted in English school when all i could recite was 1, 2, trri, forr...i ended up teaching English to Quebecois for a while.

Serendipity + synchronicity = Life is good!

Being in nature replenishes me. I listen to my inner nudges, follow my heart and trust.
As an explorer, i enjoy hiking and meeting people. Travelling nourishes me. Always on the lookout for adventure, i am curious to discover new territories and cultures : the people, their epicurian delights & way of life, the language, the music,... I am especially attracted to islands.

Advocate of health and wellness of body, mind and spirit, i am drawn to support community. Various stages of life offered different opportunities such as, initiating Mothering Matters (support group for at-home moms) which then went on to Walking Matters, Writing Matters, Dancing Matters and the latest, Relaxation Matters, a fusion of tapping with sound, Qi Gong , yoga, mind-body awareness.

I am well-seasoned in tourism and hospitality fields, having worked in/as: a travel agency; a tour leader; a flight attendant; Montreal's convention centre; IATA (International Air Transport Asso in Geneva); serving in restaurants...

Sociable and friendly, i am looking to be of service and share good vibrations. Choosing cooperation, kindness, creativity to foster harmony on my path is what i strive for.
I am eager to work/help in exchange for opportunities to learn new skills, experience newness, and discover a new destination or re-visit one.

Loud and clear i sing Hurray for Workaway!!!
