Quelles sont vos compétences ?
I have 17 years of experience in animal care (especially horse care), horse training and exercising. I'm good at indoor cleaning, I can cook and I'm a quick learner and independent worker. I find pleasure in nature, calmness and animals. I am physically fit and motivated to work on a farm.

Autres infos...
As well as deepening my skills with horse training and learning new skills in farm work and agriculutre, I want to use my workaway experience to find back to myself and recover from the stress of studying in a calm, remote and natural place. For me, this is not about phone-detoxing, excessive mindfulness and minimalism. Just being more present, doing meaningful things and being more outside and physically active, while exploring new landscapes and communities.

Laissé par le workawayer (Juna) pour l'hôte (Get involved in the ...)

I enjoyed my experience so much, that I extended my stay at Janets from 4 to 10 weeks (may-july)! My main jobs were: taking care of the veggie garden and caring for the horses, but I also did a lot of other different jobs. At Janets, there is work for everyone, it is really versatile!
In the vegetable garden I learned to: plant seeds, plant… read more seedlings, supporting plant growth, plant and vegetable bed maintenance, weeding, as well as harvesting of many different vegetables and fruits. There was also a lot of DIY to tackle in the veggie garden, from building an "anti-rabbit-fence" to building growth supports for the tomatoes from scratch! I learned so so much about gardening and it was an amazing feeling, being able to harvest what I planted myself 10 weeks ago.
My horsy jobs mainly consisted of taking care of Marly, a horse that needed a bit of retraining and attention. When Janet feels like you are skilled enough around horses, she betrusts you to care for them yourself and it was absolutely amazing! I am so grateful that I was able to work with Marly and to learn so much from him! I did many different kinds of ground work with him, liberty training, trailer loading, we went for walks or rides in the field or outside of the property. It felt like having your own horse, and in these 10 weeks I stayed with Janet, Marly and I were able to form a bond, we reached a lot of goals together, I learned so much from him and we just had the best time together! I was also lucky to take another horse, Smurf, on rides around the forest by myself! Furthermore, it was my task to regularly check on the horses wellbeing, like checking their water and controlling their grass intake, as well as feed them hay and just regular health check-ups, which I all really enjoyed!
But I also did many other jobs: I voluntarily did a lot of indoor and outdoor cleaning, which I really enjoyed. I learned how to wax and polish old wooden floors, how to plaster holes in the walls and how to sand and paint windows, window frames and shutters. In my last few days I also learned how to use the strimmer to cut the grass around the property and it was a lot of fun and really satisfying!

But what I enjoyed the most was that Janet and Felix make you feel welcomed and at home, the second you arrive, bevause they are so talkactive, honest, open and friendly. You immediately feel like part of the family, I had a lot of nice and long conversations with Janet over a cup of tea, sat at the kitchen table! Everything just feels really nice, uncomplicated and open! We often had a lot of people over for dinner or went to someones house, I was able to cook a lot of the time which I really enjoyed! I got to meet sooo many nice people, friendships formed and I made a lot of wonderful memories!
My freetime I either spent on the property (because it is so beautiful!!!), visiting places or meeting up with other workaways staying at Yvonnes (Janets best friend, she also lives in Montemboeuf and hosts workaways)! Janet was really generous and treats her workaways really nicely. We had picnics at the lake, went kajaking or just all met up every tuesday having really nice dinner together with Yvonne and her workaways.
These 10 weeks were an absolut blast, I learned so much and made soooo many amazing memories! I will definetly come back as soon as possible, Janets just the best!

(Excellent )
