Description
Dear hosts,
My name is Celine, I am French, early 30's, who choose to be "stuck" in this beautiful country for over 2,5 years.
As a main job I am graphic designer and passionate about any kind of creativity.
I have started work exchange when I was in Australia a few years ago and doing quite a lot of this since I arrived in New Zealand. I think this is the best way to travel while immersing myself into a new country both culturally and linguistically. By these experiences I gained several skills in outdoors jobs, like gardening, farming and general skills as house renovation, painting, housekeeping, cooking, childcare...
Hard-worker, proactive and rigorous, I am always keen to learn and experiment new challenges. Good initiative, can work independently and have a can do attitude!
I am easy going, trustworthy, open minded and tidy. I love outdoors activities such as hiking, camping, biking... while exploring nature. I also enjoy having quiet moments doing meditation, yoga, playing music, or being crafty. Usually I am quite introvert, enjoying time on my own but can be sociable as well when feeling comfortable.
Ideally I would prefer to speak with hosts by phone beforehand to ensure the requirements and get all necessary details.
Traveling with my own vehicle.

I have been a helper a few times while traveling.
When I was on a working holiday in Australia I was doing general duties in a house and in a boat. And also since I arrived in New Zealand, I have been doing house renovation/gardening, and did some farming with chickens (feeding, collecting and selling eggs). Since I am registered on Helpx website I got some other experiences like in a B&B or in a dairy farm.
Happy to give references if needed.

With another travel mate we enjoyed a lot making a video and some graphic/web design for a mandala mosaics project which was satisfying.
We had our own privacy in the separate stables with a nice fire place to get… read more
