Another Departure of a Volunteer at La Giraudière

Today at La Giraudière, we yet again had to wave goodbye to a long-time volunteer, Christine. This was Christine’s fourth stay at La Giraudière, so it’s certainly not her first farewell to this place, but we will still miss her dearly.

During her time here as a volunteer, Christine has helped out with every task available at La Giraudière, from gardening to shopping to housekeeping to accounting. In addition to all of the above, she has also many a time acted as chauffeur for the many volunteers at La Giraudière.

Christine says that she enjoyed sharing the French experience with others, and greatly valued the experience she gained from accounting and gardening. For her, the volunteer experience was overall a pleasant and magnificent sejour.

We have enormously appreciated the extended contributions Christine has made to this program – not only through her tireless work, but also through her positive energy that encouraged others around her and her dedication to whichever task was at hand. We hope that Christine will return again soon for her fifth stay at La Giraudière, and wish her the very best wherever she travels to next.
