Description
I’m a outgoing woman who loves to meet new people.
I have worked as a buyer of video for a group of independant retailers during 20 years. It was an interesting job, especially since I love cinema, but it wasn’t enough to fulfill my desire of moving so I quit this job and decided to explore new horizons. Since my 28 years old daughter makes her living now, I can sail on every sea… (except that I am sea sick ha ha).
I’m 54 and enthusiastic in discovering new landscapes, new ways of living and in having passionate discussions.
I’m particularly interested in everything linked to culture : cinema, arts, music, literature…
I also love to walk in nature, along the coasts, in the mountains or in forests.
I would be happy to meet you, discover your own interests in life and share mine with you.

Super 1ère expérience pour moi avec Karine. Autonome, elle m'aide même à améliorer les choses. La confiance a été rapide et les échanges toujours intéressants.
Une vraie plue value dans la vie de tous les jours et dans le travail ;)
Je recommande et je la recevrai de nouveau avec plaisir!

I spent 7 weeks at Bertrand’s place in June and July. He was recommended to me by another host and I wasn’t disappointed at all. I really think it was the most beautiful place where I had the chance to spend so much time. If you are lucky enough to go there you will be amazed by the beauty of the landscapes surrounding his chalet.

My ten days at Astrid & Erik’s place were great! They’re exactly the type of people you want to meet as a Workawayer. They welcomed me with kindness, respect and no judgement.
They are flexible about the schedule. Apart from weeding and cooking I did some original and easy things like shelling walnuts, filling pots with hay to put in trees to get… read more

Karine stayed with us for 10 days in April 2023. She helped us in the garden (mostly weeding) and with some general maintenance. She also cooked (really nice food!) for us.
Karine is a really nice person who blended in our family really easily. She has an eye for work that needs to be done and does everything with great care.
It was an overal… read more

I spent almost two weeks at Anne and Laure’s and I had a great time. Their troglodyte house is a beautiful and a bit labyrinthine place. I had a big and quite room under the roof. What I had to do is to clean the kitchen shelves, wash the numerous windows and take care of their children during two days of their holiday and two evenings. It was a… read more

I spent three weeks at Renee and Ruben’s and it was a really great time. First of all Renee and Ruben have a great sense of humor which I appreciate very much.
As far as work is concerned, Ruben is the one who organises things and he is very flexible about the hours. My main tasks were household, a lot of laundry, a bit of gardening and also… read more

I spent almost two sunny weeks at Jocelyne and Jean-Claude’s and it was a bit an « out of time » moment. The place is wonderful and I really mean it. The view is great, the gardens are magnificent and peaceful. I had the possibility to borrow their canoe and I used it twice on the beautiful river le Loir. Two marvellous moments in the middle of… read more

My two weeks at Anoushka’s were a real pleasure, exactly what you expect from a Workaway experience: respect, fun, sincerity, varied tasks, beautiful environment… Anoushka is very respectful and generous. She takes care of you and always tries to give you tasks according to your skills and preferences. She is also very flexible.

Karine stayed for 2 weeks at my house in a very busy time where we really needed help. It was great to have her here!
She instantly was part of our family (as all my family was here when she arrived). ❤️
She is very funny, talkative, honest and nice.
We all spent a good time with her and she helped us as much as she could.
Thank you Karine to… read more

Karine stayed with us for 2,5 weeks. She is a calm but at the same time talkative and sociable person. We got along really well and she found it easy to get into contact with my two daughters. Once we understood our opposed daytime rhythms, organizing tasks and family life was very smooth. Karine picked up my kids and drove them to the places they… read more

Mon premier Workaway s’est très bien déroulé chez Annick chez qui j’ai passé une agréable semaine. Annick est une excellente cuisinière et je me suis régalée, d’autant qu’elle cuisine beaucoup avec les légumes et fruits de son jardin qui sont succulents. J’ai fait du ménage dans la maison et un tout petit peu de jardinage aussi, c’est-à-dire un… read more

J'ai passé une très bonne semaine avec Karine qui m'a fait un GRAND nettoyage de printemps dans ma grande maison dont bien des recoins n'avaient pas vu balai ni éponge depuis fort longtemps !
Pas très sympa comme boulot mais Karine s'y est prêté volontiers et puis il faisait vraiment froid pour jardiner
