Descrição
Hello,

I've been wanting to travel for several years now. Now that I'm out of secondary school, it's time!

I'm very interested in audio-visual art, which has been an option at school for the last 2 years. I love photography and video.

My motivations are many: meeting new people, their cultures and of course seeing the country.
I'm responsible, motivated and, as a member of the youth movement, I'm used to looking after young children. (6-8 years old)

I'm a light traveller, I'm travelling alone and with no means of transport.

I really like animals, nature and I like working with my hands.

Even though I'm a vegetarian, I'm physically fit. (i don't eat fish)

Have a nice day.

Quentin

Deixado pelo anfitrião (Help us develop our alpaca ...) para o Workawayer (Quentin)

Where to begin… Quentin was our first ever Workawayer and I can honestly put my hand on my heart and say this young man (of only 18 years old!) is truly, truly remarkable! I had reservations about opening our home up to a workaway experience, but Quentin has not only proven that I had absolutely nothing to worry about, but has exceeded my… read more expectations 100 times over. He began his journey with us on the 22nd Feb and the agreement was initially 2 weeks workaway experience with a view to extending, if both parties were happy to do so. We were not only happy that Quentin was able to extend his time with us, but we were tremendously overjoyed that he spent an entire 7 weeks assisting and supporting us with caring for our alpaca and undertaking farm work and chores.

Quentin is exceptionally hardworking and so diligent with every task he put his mind to. He demonstrated initiative, making valuable suggestions for efficiencies in our day to day farm tasks. For example, he made a little rig for our hosepipe, so it could be left unattended to fill up the water troughs while we tended to other duties. He was very adept like this and when weather stopped us from doing projects outside, he would happily turn his hand to other things like chopping wood for our log burner and getting our stove fired up, so our farmhouse was warm when we came in after seeing to the animals. He is incredibly thoughtful like that and way beyond his years in terms of his maturity and positive attitude. He is a great communicator, has a wonderful personality, easy to get on with, enthusiastic and has the most phenomenal rapport with our alpacas. It was truly heartwarming to see Quentin’s development over the weeks with our alpaca. He genuinely shares a love and affection for our “pacaniños” as much as we do. Seeing him softly tend to our youngest alpaca Marmalade was adorable as he would gently massage her back and stroke her fleece and in return she would shower him with kisses. Our animals were comfortable and confident around him and he made them feel special. I know Marmalade was sad to see him leave, as were we. Even on his free days he was kindly making videos and short films of our farm and animals. He is an expert when it comes to audio-visual and a very talented drone operator!

Quentin along with helping out a great deal with our animals also helped with demolition of a barn wall, cementing, bricklaying, preparing posts, clearing land, upkeep of our barns and paddocks and most importantly putting our alpacas health and care at the forefront. He is quite simply an exemplary person and an extraordinary young man; who we now consider to be like family (…my 5th nephew!). He treated us, our animals and our home with the greatest respect and care and we will miss him terribly. He has set the bar phenomenally high and we will always be grateful for his help and will keep the door open for his return (hopefully in the near future). We wish him all the very best with his onward journey and workaway experiences.

Incredible, is the first word I would use to describe my stay with Lauren and Tony.

I spent just over a month and a half with them and every day was a learning experience, they taught me so much, whether it was about alpacas, their experience in Galicia or their personal knowledge.

From the moment we met, I could count on their kindness and… read more

It was Quentin´s first workaway experience with us and he was amazing! I would go as far to say he was the best workawayer we have ever had so far. He was very hardworking, keen to learn new skills and happy to lend his hand to anything. He was a pleasure to have around the house, good company, very polite and always asked if he could help. He… read more

I spent 4 fantastic weeks with Rachel and Alexis, I mainly worked with Alexis and learned a lot from him.
Teddy and Albi are their 2 little boys, they're really cool and full of energy, I had wonderful times with them.
I was also invited to go with them to visit Majocar and its history, which was a great outing.
To conclude, I had a lot of fun… read more
