Quais são suas habilidades?
Onn, I’m very happy to be able to do a 11month sabbatical from July 2023 to June 2024.
I hope to make new experiences, meet new people, exchange culture and knowledge.
I am a positive, curious, open-minded, easy going, joyful and calm person.
In my free time, I love to spend time with my family and friends. I often exercice to maintain a physical health, I love to swim in the lake and go hiking. I also like to cook, bake, read and listen to music.
During our stay, I can help with general tasks that come with running a house or a guesthouse, take care of the animals at a farm-stay, grow vegetables at a permaculture-garden, and so Onn :-)
I, Antoine, completed an apprenticeship in Switzerland as a draftsman/architect. I then worked in various factories like Nestlé, Nexans, ...
I can use my brain as well as my hands ;-)
In 2000, I moved with my family (wife and 2 kids) in Laos. I worked in 5 hospitals as a building manager, architect, engineer, plumber and so on, for 5 years. Then South Africa for a year doing maintenance in a school, and Thailand for more than 3 years, as a teacher (math and French), and foster parent.
Quick learner, eager, I like to experiment and acquire new skills.
Idade
50 & 51
Algo mais...
We love sports like swimming, tennis, badminton, volleyball, hiking, and Antoine used to skiing a lot when he was a child.
We do not play an instrument.
We like pets and animals.
We love to spend time in the nature, get lost in huge cities. We also like to dance. Antoine love a good glass of wine with some Gruyère or some goat cheese, he is a honey addict and probably Nutella too.
We like to laugh, spend good times with friends as well as being dedicated in finding satisfaction in a job well done. As a well balanced couple we like to help and learn.

My wife and I stayed for 3 weeks in January. This hostel is one of a kind and we enjoyed it.
Friendly and very generous hosts, nice atmosphere, and the work was chill as we did hit the low season.
We shared this beautiful experience with 2 other workawayers.
