    Hello :)

    I've been living a nomadic life for the past 4 years (not digital nomad) mostly in Canada but also US & Mexico! I love travelling (slow travel) & immersing with the locals, meeting new people, making genuine connections.

    I enjoy learning, especially skills, I'm also not afraid to get my hands dirty and will try anything once!

    I'm embarking on my biggest journey yet and will be solo backpacking through central and south america for the first time ever and am looking forward to using workaway as a way to connect with locals, contribute positively to communities and really immerse myself into the culture.

    I'd consider myself a seasoned traveller who's outgoing but also needs my alone time, loves the outdoors and nature & has a go with the flow mindset. During my downtime, I enjoy doing arts & crafts and crocheting.

    I worked as an intervention worker at a homeless shelter and am passionate about helping and standing up for vulnerable populations, not just human populations but my furry friends too.

    Some of my personal interest and hobbies include:
    -silver jewelry making
    -crocheting
    -arts & crafts (collage, painting, etc)
    -anything related to nature, outdoors activities (hiking, kayaking, camping)
    -intersectional environmentalism
    -marine wildlife/snorkeling
    -gardening/farming
    -learning more primitive skills like herbalism foraging fishing

  • Was könntest du arbeiten?

    I've done quite a few work exchanges in the past 4 years. On Canada's west coast doing manual labor jobs like yard work, gardening and housekeeping.

    Spent 6 weeks at an "Ashram" doing karma yoga, with my main responsibility being housekeeping and taking care of the animals which I really liked(cats, chickens, pigs, 1 donkey and 1 horse). I took care of feeding twice a day, and cleaning their spaces.

    I also spent 3 months last summer in Mexico volunteering at the reception of a women's hostel doing a variety of tasks like check-ins, some cleaning, organizing events which was such a special experience!

    I've worked on and off as a housekeeper since 2014 in a variety of settings: airbnbs, private residences, resort/hotel.

    I have some experience farming, doing a bit of carpentry and painting through workaways here in my home province of Québec and working on little projects with my dad.

    I really enjoy de-cluttering, organizing and decorating spaces and I've had the chance to do that mostly at my mom's place (garage, freezer, basement).

    Other skills & experience from previous employment include:
    -Caregiver
    -Customer service incl. in the restaurant industry (barista, hostess, food runner)
    -Non profit/community work (intervention worker)
    -Animating group activities
