Description
Hello! How are you? My name is Nikita, I'm a 33-year-old French woman.

Currently taking a break in Cairns, I’m looking for a quiet place in Sydney to settle down before and after Christmas, so I can focus on my job search.

About me:

I’ve had the chance to live in various places: two years in the Caribbean, six months in Canada, six months in Scotland, fifteen months in New Zealand, and six months in the Netherlands. I've been in Australia for the past two years.

My professional background includes seasonal jobs in horticulture (Nz and Aus), followed by experience as an animal carer, especially working with primates across Europe. I’m now focusing on using my Master’s degree in Communication to pursue a career in public relations, with the aim of applying for permanent residency in the future.

I’m passionate about tropical forests, wild landscapes, the sea, and mountains. Australia, with its incredible wildlife and natural beauty, feels like the perfect place for me.

As a backpacker it's not always easy to meet the locals and I'm not enjoying anymore the hostel, so I though Workaway could be a good opportunity !

Let me know if my profil interest you !

I'm available for a Facetime or a video call on Whatsapp anytime.

COOKING
Like 90% of French people, I love to eat so I love to cook !

ANIMALS
I growed with cats and dogs and I can't live without them, so to take care of yours will be a great pleasure !

HOME
Clean, tidy, organize, reorgansier, decorate is not a problem for me.

CHILDREN
Afters years of summers jobs experiences, I'm comfortable with them.

DIY & GARDEN
I don't have any specials skills for DIY but I'm curious to learn and motivated.

After picking, prunning and thinning seasons of tomato, cherry, kiwifruit, avocado and kumara, I begin used to work with fruits and trees.

ECOLOGY & SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Anything around this subjects interests me too (ecological construction, permaculture, self-sufficiency ...)

I would like to practise more yoga, learn how to make honney, jam, and fish ! :)

I spend 10 days at Steve place during Christmas. The job was not difficult because Steve never really ask us to do something. He just enjoy our company and took us sometimes to visit some parts of the Catlins. So I decided to take the dogs for a long walk almost every day (they're in a cage). I discover they really enjoy cuddles, jump and run in… read more

I spend one week with Karolyne in her dairly farm and it was very interesting ! She really really need help so it was nice to feel usefull. In love with animals in general, I really enjoy the company of cafe, dunkeys, horse, cat and dog. If you're calm and patient they will probably like you. I also really appreciate driving with the quad in the… read more

I spend 10 days in Hori place and it was a really good experience ! I was happy to meet a young and traveler maori/ host ! That's changes :) His eco-house is very lost in the bush, with just the sound of the birds and zero plastic (but still near to the town Opotiki if you need something). I really enjoyed to discover how tu put possums trapp and… read more

Nikita stayed for just over a week with her friend Gabby. She was a pleasure to host. I enjoyed her positive energy, initiative and French lessons. It was great to share bush knowledge and Maori culture with her. All the best with your many future travels :pray_tone4::green_heart:

Nikita is a very friendly and hard-working lassie! She has been very helpful - and makes the best apple crumble anywhere!
J'ai surtout aimé nos leçons françaises matinales, merci beaucoup :) - it was a wonderful occasion to brush up my French! I hope I was able to help Nikita with her English as well as she helped me with my French. Good luck with… read more

I stayed 3 weeks at Bill's and it was perfect! The start was really difficult for me ..

Bill lives in one of the best areas of Edinburgh, very beautiful, green and relaxing with all the shops you need at 1 minute (charity shop too!). You can hear the river flowing from your bed in the summer.. Amazing ..

Bill doesn't need a lot of help. It's… read more

Nikita was a lovely Workawayer and made a lasting difference to my garden. She's steady, patient, conscientious, hard-working, cheerful, reliable, always willing to go that extra mile (sometimes literally!). She has initiative, common sense, and great people skills (she coped magnificently with a Chinese couple who had barely a word of English),… read more

My stay at Drumnadrochit was perfect!

Jenny was kind enough to accept me at the last minute and for only 18 days. She also rented a car for me to visit a part of the west coast, and allowed me to invite my friends, twice in a row! Our last night was really great!

The requested work is not too hard, cleaning the rooms in the morning, weeding and… read more

Where to start ? I spent three weeks here and it was really too short!
Roy's a lovely person, interesting and very endearing! He likes to meet people, organize multicultural dinners and is really interested in us (we don't feel like a simple worker).

Nikita is very helpful and willing. In spite of English language brain freeze on occasion :-) she managed to make herself understood, and is always available to lend a hand. She is outstanding as a ‘declutterer’ (..there’s a word to challenge your English vocabulary Niki !) and a very kind and friendly person, who made good use of her time at the… read more
