Description

Hello !
I'm Paola, I'm 21 years old, I'm oryginally from Reunion Island and I now live in France for my studies.

I love to travel, discover new places and meet new people. I'm always ready to experience something new, try new activities and I love outdoor activities.

I did some very nice trips with my parents when I was younger and I now want to travel by my own.
I did a humanitarian trip at an orphenage in India during summer 2023 with a little group of students from my school. It was a rewarding experience.
During summer 2024, I went to British Columbia to work in a ranch and I learn so many things about ranch life, hosting guests, horses ...

More details about your skills

I did a first two month Workaway in Canada during which I learned many things like :
- trail clearing : hiking in the mountains with a chainsaw to clean trails
- hosting guest : cleaining the lodge, cooking for guests, welcomming them
- wrangling : catch, preapare and ride horses, lead pack horses
- little fencing and carpentry projects
- drive a tractor to mow a field

I learn quickly and I am diligent. If the basics are shown to me, I can help with any task.

I am athletic and energetic, so I have no problem performing tasks that require good physical condition.

I love animals, which generally allows me to have a good connection with them. Taking care of them is therefore no problem for me, on the contrary! I have practiced horse riding for several years, so I am comfortable working with horses.

French is my native language, so it would be a pleasure to help people who would like to learn the basics or improve their skills. During my first workaway in British Columbia, I improved my english level but I still want to practice !
