Description
Hi I'm Simon !
I'm an adventure seeker, part-time explorer, navigating through life since 1993.
I was born and raised in France, I have then studied, worked or volunteered in several places across our amazing European continent, and I am now spending some free time in New Zealand and Australia, learning about Kiwis and Australians way of life.
Whenever I'm off somewhere far from France, I like to wander around the country for a fairly long time rather than having some short-term holiday. That's why I occasionally use Workaway, it's a good way to have a grounded insight of how's life in that new place I'm exploring.
I see myself as an easy-going person, curious person, good listener, a bit introvert at times, and always up to something, I thrive in being active. I'm an outdoor sport person, tramping is my thing, I also like water sport such as kayaking, sailing, I'd love to learn surfing, I have basics in kitesurfing. I used to bike around a lot back in France, it's such a cool way to move!
I want to keep it short so I'll stop here, but if you want to know more just contact me
Cheers, Simon. -

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
I like to see things as an adventure, so I'm usually up for any kind of volunteering work. I'm especially triggered by things I don't know about, so I can learn by doing.
I have a college degree in agriculture (MSc), I've mainly studied farming, soil sciences, agro-ecology, and natural resources management (water, biodiversity, ... ). I could most likely help you in any project related to farming, gardening, eco-projects, animal care, composting ... I grew up in a farm back in France, and have worked in several animal farms.
I'm definitely not the best cook, but I know my way through a kitchen and I always cook my meals. I hate throwing food away so I find it funny to be creative and make up a yummy dish with leftovers. I have always had housemates, so trust me, I know the importance of have a balanced and regular housekeeping work! I can adapt to every diet.
Beside that, I'm handy, I like to be active and to do things, so all project involving maintenance or repair I could be helpful. I have a basic knowledge for use of tools (woodwork, paint, concrete).
I'm fluent in English, I have an intermediate level of Spanish. I'm french-native, so I can help anyone who'd like to learn.
Just so you have an idea, here are some previous Workaway project I was involved in :
Assisting water sport instructor, general maintenance and repair (in a sailing school, kite surf school).
Help in designing a terrasse garden and creating a compost station.
Helping an English summer school with new study material and organizing trips for student.
Property maintenance including gardening, fixing shed, painting, and odd jobs around the house. -

I've spent almost 3 months at Patric's place and I was sad to leave. Patric and Pheobe are great hosts, they made me feel at home. The house is very chill, super close to the beach, far from busy places. I got to know the kitesurf world and could take part of it, which I have really appreciated.
