  • Description

    I'm an English teacher and tutor in France who loves to travel! After completing my degrees in Philosophy and Sociology I decided to move to France to improve my French and discover new places. I have an extensive history of working with children and I've taken part in Workaways before in the Loire Valley, Bretagne and Lebanon, working on both campsites and on farms, as well as Couchsurfing. I'm passionate about permaculture techniques, vegetarian cooking, handcrafts, yoga, slow living and sustainability, and I love working with children. As a natural extrovert, I love meeting new people and sharing skills. I would love to share my creativity, passion for music and languages with others and be a source of good energy and a useful pair of hands!
