We are currently in France, planning our next trip to Japan.

Descrição

My name is Thomas, I'm from France and I'm 29 years old.
I love nature, hiking, and traveling. I'm interested in the arts, such as music, cinema, and drawing. I have already had the opportunity to travel for four months in Colombia, two months in Scotland, six months in England, and five months in West Africa, where I experienced Workaway for the first time in August 2022, more specifically in Ghana and Senegal.
Since then, I have returned to work in France, but my contract as a water and environmental engineering project manager will soon come to an end, so I am leaving again in August 2026 for Japan with my girlfriend.
We will stay there for at least three months, and it seems obvious to us that we should do workaway there to discover the Japanese people and their culture in the best possible way.
During my previous trips, I discovered that I especially enjoy “slow” adventures that allow me to enjoy the journey and take the time to meet people along the way. What's more, I believe that to truly discover a place, it's interesting to meet the people who live there. So, participating in a local project with local people can only be an incredible experience. Giving my time to help people carry out a project is a good way to thank them for introducing me to their country. This was confirmed by my wonderful experiences in Ghana and Senegal. In Ghana, I was welcomed for two weeks by Lawrence and his family, who introduced me to life in small villages and the cultivation of corn and cassava, and with whom I began building a shelter for children who had to travel far from their families to attend school. In Senegal, Dianko's extended family welcomed me for two weeks in a peaceful haven on the Atlantic coast, surrounded by papaya and banana trees.
I hope to repeat the enriching experiences we had during our trip to Japan, meet incredible people, and participate in fulfilling and interesting projects.
To this end, my partner Heïdi and I are ready to get involved in any kind of project and give our time and energy. We can do DIY, cleaning, gardening, planting, clearing land, cooking, teaching French, participating in artistic projects, and much more.
We look forward to meeting you along the way.


Je m'appelle Thomas, je viens de France et j'ai 29 ans.
J'aime la nature, les randonnées et les voyages. Je m'intéresse aux arts comme la musique, le cinéma, le dessin. J'ai déjà eu l'occasion de voyager pendant 4 mois en Colombie, 2 mois en Écosse, 6 mois en Angleterre et 5 mois en Afrique de l'Ouest, où j'ai expérimenté pour la première fois le workaway en août 2022, plus précisément au Ghana.
Depuis, j'ai repris le travail en France mais mon contrat en tant que chef de projet ingénieur en eau et environnement, va bientôt prendre fin, et je repars donc en août 2026 au Japon avec ma copine.
Nous allons y rester au moins 3 mois et il nous parait évident d'y faire du workaway pour découvrir les Japonais et leur culture de la meilleure des manières.
Lors de mes précédents voyages, j'ai découvert que j'aime avant tout les aventures " lentes " qui me permettent de profiter du voyage, et de prendre le temps de rencontrer des gens en chemin. De plus, je pense que pour vraiment découvrir un lieu, il est intéressant de rencontrer les gens qui y vivent. Ainsi, participer à un projet local avec des personnes locales ne peut être qu'une expérience incroyable. Donner de mon temps pour aider les gens à réaliser un projet est une bonne façon de les remercier de m'avoir fait découvrir leur pays. Ceci m'a été confirmé par mes superbes expériences au Ghana et au Sénégal. Au Ghana, j'ai été accueilli pendant 2 semaines par Lawrence et sa famille, qui m'ont fait découvrir la vie des petits villages, la culture du maïs et du manioc, et avec qui j'ai entamé la construction d'un abri pour les enfants devant aller à l'école loin de leurs familles. Au Sénégal, la famille élargie de Dianko m'a accueilli pendant 2 semaines dans un havre de paix sur la côte de l'Atlantique, au milieu des papayers et des bananiers.
J'espère pouvoir renouveler les expériences enrichissantes lors de notre voyage au Japon, rencontrer des gens incroyables et participer à des projets épanouissant et intéressant.
Pour cela, nous sommes prêts, avec Heïdi ma compagne, à nous engager dans tout type de projet et à donner de notre temps et énergie. Nous pouvons bricoler, nettoyer, jardiner, planter, défricher, cuisiner, donner des cours de français, participer à des projets artistiques et bien d'autres choses.
Au plaisir de vous croiser sur la route.
