Description

I'm French Canadian and British Columbia citizen for past 7 years exploring Canada. I'm alternating between work, travel and volunteering.

I like to hike, bike, swim, meditate and do yoga. I'm passionate about all things health, wellness and spirituality.

Having just finished summer work, I'm available to volunteer for a few weeks all over British Columbia or anywhere else in Canada if the opportunity is right in the fall of 2025 and early winter 2026.

Since April 2024 I worked non-stop doing projects;

- In the Okanagan I repaired fences for horses.
- In Slocan Valley I did preventative burns.
- I collected wild garlic for 10 days around Haliburton that spring.
- Early fall I helped the housekeeping team in an Eco Loge for 6 weeks.
- I volunteered at an homestead in late fall where I did a lot of mulching and helped around the house.
- I spent the winter off the grid at an Eco Loge helping housekeeping team and monitoring tubing lanes.
- I returned to an homestead in Ontario to help with the wood, help with maple syrup and a variety of projects.
- On Manitoulin Island I improved trails on two properties.

During those 7 years I worked in campgrounds, lodges, resorts and provincial parks all over Canada as a Park Operator, Front Desk and Maintenance. I have some experience in the kitchen and housekeeping.

I had an awesome time volunteering at Brenda and Frits property and left feeling invigorated. Their property has a sanctuary feel that made work really fun. We were supplied plenty of foods and none better than the greens from the garden. The cottage we stayed was super comfortable and it was a very relaxing to sit on the patio overlooking Salt … read more

Alex stayed with us for two weeks in early January along with another workaway volunteer. He was attracted to our request to help clean up our forest of downed branches to be burned. Alex did a terrific job and went on to help split two cords of wood from downed trees and assisted in clearing out a tangled area of forest. Loves nature works great … read more

My 2 months stay at the Ranch starting this early spring was absolutely wonderful! It felt like home and was treated like family. Their property right by the border is really big and stunning making me feel like I was deep in the wilderness. Surrounded by so much nature it was easy to get going and do the work which involved lots of raking, … read more

It was great to have Alex come help us for 3 weeks. The work was physical and he worked hard with no complaints. Most of the time Alex worked alongside us on our projects and we were able to get lots done. Chopping firewood was his strong suit, weeding was not.
Alex was a great help in the kitchen with meal prep and clean up. He was an … read more

Laissé par l'hôte pour le workawayer

Alex was a great help on the property, trimming and pruning the greenery as well as raking leaves and making hot fires to burn the greenery. He was also available and happy to help with small projects, with grocery and appointment runs, and did a great job cleaning up the kitchen after making his meals. He was very much valued and appreciated and … read more

I'm really grateful to have had a chance to spend couple of weeks at Daniela's home this past October. The weather turned to be super nice which allowed us to get a lot done on the property. I raked leaves, did several fires to burn branches and for fun and pruned trees among other jobs. Being able to enjoy the infrared sauna in the cabin as often … read more

Volunteering at Caroline's house was a great experience as it gave me a chance to see more of BC interior and learn valuable skills while working on the retaining wall. From the moment Caroline pick me up at the bus station, I felt welcomed and part of the family. We had a lot of pleasant conversations. The house has a stunning view over the … read more

Alex stayed with us for a week to help build a retaining wall. He also raked leaves all day long in the rain and hauled rocks, so he is very reliable once he has been set to a task. Alex keeps track of his hours, so you can't over work him, but he is a very hard worker, and in his downtime he is very respectful of your space and time. He is very … read more

On my first workaway, I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay than at Niki's and George's house. I really enjoyed our conversations, the volunteer work, my bedroom which has an awesome and inspiring view to the water and having access to a bike to go around. Niki sent me to some of her friends and her daughter in Kamloops which allowed me … read more

Alex stayed with us about 2 months, part of that time he stayed and helped our daughter and also a friend of ours. He is very helpful, eager to finish a task, sees what need to be done, strong and likes outdoor work. There was a big storm which brought down trees and many branches which needed cleaning up. He survived a 5 day power outage, caused … read more
