A New Zealand Volunteer in France<\/h1>\n

This week we said goodbye and thank you to Carolyn Nimmo, a volunteer from New Zealand who came to the south west of France to improve her French skills and to experience the French culture.<\/p>\n

Carolyn quickly immersed herself in the French culture by participating in regular games of P\u00e9tanque, speaking French with locals and other volunteers.<\/p>\n

In New Zealand Carolyn works with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade to arrange and support people who are coming from developing countries to New Zealand to study. A dream of hers is to live in France for about 6 months and she is definitely well on her way to being able to speak the language fluently.<\/p>\n

At La Giraudiere she took on many housekeeping and gardening duties.She regularly planted new flowers around La Giraudiere and taught new volunteers a little bit about gardening.<\/p>\n

Thank you Carolyn for your help at La Giraudiere. It was a pleasure to have you on our team and to work with you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
