Namaste,
I am currently living in Sardinia (Italy) and I am looking to volunteer in Asia in a buddhist nunnery for next winter.
I like to be active and practice my daily yoga, but most of all to meet and share with interesting people.
I am a senior woman of 61 years, French Canadian living in Italy for 30 years. I am an active and fit person. I've been practicing yoga for many years, I also like hiking in the nature. I speak French, Italian and English.
I want to continue my spiritual research, deepen my knowledge and improve the practice of mindfulness , meditation, pranayama, Mantra, asana. I like to get out of my comfort zone, I appreciate the challenge to live new experiences, meet interesting people and get back to the essential.
I had a taste of a community life style in 2018 since I spent one month in Rishikesh (India) and also during my last trip (2019-20) when I was back to India visiting yoga hashram and communities in the state of Tamil Nadu.
I am not scared of work, I think it is a sort of meditation, karma yoga , a way to the here and now. I like gardening and spending time with kids. I have a good knowledge of computer and I’m willing to teach what I’ve learned in my long life ;)
I’m vegetarian, a nature lover and a pretty good cook as well.
I would prefer to stay in the same place for at least 2 weeks in order to be able to better appreciate the environment.Centres d’intérêt

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
Language practice:
My first language is French since I was born and grew up in Quebec (Canada). After 30 years in Italy, I can speak very good Italian too. I am fluent in English and I know a little bit of Spanish.
Teaching:
I always liked to teach, it’s something that comes natural to me. For 5 years I volunteered in my community in Italy giving computer lessons to elderly. I can also help children with their homework.
Gardening:
Here in Sardinia, we’ve been growing our own organic fruits and vegetables, I practice crop rotation and synergistic garden and I am learning permaculture.
Babysitting / child care;
I have a 27 year old son, grown with lots of love, positive thinking, motivation and encouragement. I love to spend time with children because they give me the opportunity to become more present.
Elderly Companion:
I thing elderly can be a great example of wisdom and awakening. They more than everybody deserve to be loved, respected and listened too. I took care of elderly in the past.
Cooking / shopping:
I can cook delicious nutrient vegetarian and vegan meals I believe that If food is prepared with love and care it’s much more better and nutritious. I helped in the kitchen to cook for 60 persons at my last workaway host in Indian in an alternative forest school .
