Description

I'm a 28-year-old, energetic, motivated and curious woman, ready to embark on a unique and exciting adventure. I graduated with a master's degree in architecture,but along the way, I realized that the built world in which I grew up didn't align fully with my values.

As my studies progressed, I increasingly felt a the need to explore more ecological ways of living, in harmony with resources and the living world around us. Over the past two years, I've immersed myself in the principles of permaculture (according to Holmgren) and building with bio-sourced materials. Now that I've got my degree in hand, I'm really interested in making these aspirations a reality.

That's why I'm interested in Workaway, with its enthusiasm for simple but profoundly human experiences focused on sustainable approaches, eco-project construction and permaculture.

I'm open to all kinds of missions and ready to invest myself fully in projects of this nature. My academic background has given me a wide range of skills, but it's my thirst for sharing and knowledge, as well as my passion for a meaningful and sustainable way of life, that guide me now.

If you're looking for a volunteer who's dynamic, curious, motivated, eager to learn and interested in eco-projects, permaculture, or simply ready to help, I'm here for you :)

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

From a technical point of view, through my studies in architecture, I developed skills in project development, especially focusing on ecological and sustainable construction issues. The Workshops I did, during my studies, have given me a solid understanding of self-building, particularly in wood and adobe construction.

Beyond my technical skills, I'm a collaborative team player, able to discuss, listen and find solutions together. I consider myself to have a good ability to adapt to new situations and to learn quickly.

In addition, my two years' experience as an assistant to first-year architecture students have strengthened my teaching skills. This experience has developed valuable qualities in the field of education, affirming my ability to communicate knowledge in a clear and accessible way.

Autres infos...

I've done a lot of competitive rowing with my twin sister, so I'm a real sportswoman at heart. A few years ago, my twin sister and I started traveling around Europe by bike, which led us to travel more responsibly and, at the same time, to immerse ourselves in the local culture and create some incredible exchanges along the way. I'm also a person who likes to share beautiful moments and prefers quiet evenings with friends.
