Description
Hi everyone! We are Geoffrey (24) and Alice (22), a young French couple.

Our project is to travel across northern Europe during 9 months (October 2021 to June 2022). Our main goal is to improve our english skills (especially for Alice ahah), while discovering new ways of living, cooking, working with other people. We have a lot to share with hosts and other workawayers!

I, Geoffrey, have just finished my master's degree in Computer Sciences (September 2021), and Alice finished her Bachelor in sociology.

Geoffrey has been used to work in farms, fields and to take care of the garden, since his parents are market gardeners since 12 years.

Alice has been used to raise, educate, and live with dogs. Her parents started Weimaraner breeding when she was a teenager, and she grew up in the middle of the pack ;)

We love being around animals of all kind (except spiders for Alice).

In these difficult times of global sanitary crisis, we wanted to breath some new air. That's what motivated us to travel for the next year!

Alicia and Geoffrey are so much missed. They were so nice to have around, so calm and peaceful, so easy to work with. They helped us with making a trench for concreting a new wall in the barn, helped in the vegetable garden, with bottle feeding the small lambs and a lot more. I trusted them both with every task I asked them, it was never any… read more

What a wonderful stay we had at Maise's farm! We felt really confortable from the first day. We shared the experience with Maise, Louie, Andy and also Lis for a couple of days. Everyone had their tiny projects to work on and every now and then we were on a group project together. It was always a pleasure to stay there and we shared valuable… read more

We stayed two weeks in Mariahout, with Christine and Lara (and of course lovely Sami and Leika, and all the other animals).
We felt home really quickly, waking up mostly every morning with a lot of Curacao music 🇨🇼, and had interesting talks about cultural aspects and English language .
We enjoyed the satisfying work we achieved there such as… read more

We spent 3 weeks with this loving family of 5. We felt welcomed from the first day we arrived. They bought an old farm 3 minutes away from their house. Our work was in this farm. It was varied : paint walls, door frames, fix the floor, trim the hedge, chop some trees, tidy the place... feed the cat :). We spent a lot of time with the family, which… read more

We were so happy to get to know Jitsche and Håkan! They both made us feel instantly at home, in a really stunning renovated house. We enjoyed staying there thanks to many aspects : the diversified work, the evening talks after dinner, the super kind dogs, and the delicious meals we ate there! We built a gate with Håkan, which we had the chance to… read more

We stayed at Mark and Marie-Antoinette's place for our first work away for two weeks, and that was worth the trip!
