Descrição
Hello,
My name is Marcel and I stay in the Alpes in France. During vacations I need to escape and to live something different elsewhere to make life more interesting. I want to meet people and to work with them as a team partner, to share my experience and to learn new skills, to help in all kinds of projects you have in mind, to discover the Canadian way of life and to take the opportunity to improve my English. I already spent more than 4 months as a workawayer in Vancouver Island in 2018and again in 2022 and now I need to go back to BC to renew these unforgettable adventures and to visit the people I have already met there.
I'm respectful of others, open minded, honest, reliable, always ready to help, I love the outdoors and I need to be active in general, I take pride to my work but I also appreciate to have time with people just to talk or to visit the area.
I would appreciate to meet and to help you in your projects in exchange for food and accommodation.
Thanks for reading, please message me if you have any questions.

Quais são suas habilidades?
A little bit about my work background, I have been working as an industrial maintenance technician in the paper industry for more than 20 years in mechanics, electricity, hydraulic, pneumatic, ... and I do also some industrial buildings maintenance. Before that, I worked as a bus driver (school service and tourists' transport towards the sky resorts in the Alpes). I also worked as a storekeeper in a wholesaler in electric equipments for 6 years.
In 2005 I moved to the Alpes where I bought a house and I did a lot of work in it (carpentry, plumbing, brickwork, electricity, insulation, painting, ... ). I also built a system to collect and distribute rain water in the house and in the garden, a well of ventilation and a geothermal central heating. I spend some times in a garden too.

We had such a wonderful time with Marcel. He is super talented as a handyman and there is literally nothing he doesn't know how to do. We had so many projects during the time he was here and he attacked every project with energy and enthusiasm. He was super diligent and conscientious and seemed to get a lot of satisfaction from getting things… read more

I got along very well with both of them and they made me feel… read more

I stay with James and Len for a month and that was so nice. James is a very good cook, he prepared very good breakfasts made marvelous cheese cakes and Len is the chief of outdoor works. The work was never difficult or boring and I learnt how to prune fruit trees and very good recipes with James. I had the pleasure to celebrate thanksgiving with… read more

Marcel came to us in September. We had been communicating via Workaway for a while trying to arrange a workaway for when we had to be away visiting family and friends in the UK. Marcel agreed to come to our farm to look after our very old dog and do some projects we had lined up. I arranged to have two other workaways here from Australia, with… read more

It was a good experience with B.E.A.R. family, a good cooking from different countries prepared by Bijan and Rene, good conversations (often in French with Bijan) and interesting but no difficult work. They stay in a nice place close to downtown, public transportation, parks, malls and library. Renee`s garden is very nice and full of many… read more

Marcel was one of the best workers we had this year. He is an excellent person to have help with any project! He quickly understands the task at hand and accomplishes it with the best effort possible. He was by far the best stacker for our wood piles... they will probably even resist an earthquake!
Marcel is clean and very respectful of the… read more

Marcel was an exceptional worker and very easy to host. He appreciated everything we cooked and was organized and tidy. He certainly pulled his weight around the FarmYard and was always ready to help even with powerwashing the driveway and pulling thistles in the garden! We greatly enjoyed his quiet ways and his point-of-view on life and… read more
