We're convinced that, if each person were fully 'aligned' with herself, she would be more fulfilled and, as a result, would contribute to a more balanced society.
Our mission is to help each person get to know herself better, understand the context she's in, discover the possibilities she has, and/or take action.
Pack Your Skills gives the opportunity to each person to live an experience in which she tests herself, both personnally and professionnally, in a new context.
We enables travelers to get involved in projects with positive impact (social startups or charities) to do achieve a mission based on their skills, in exchange for food and accommodation.

"Pack your skills gave me one of the best opportunities in my life. I got a chance to experience an amazing social entrepreneurship and spend two wonderful weeks in Paris. If I had a chance to work with pack your skills again I wouldn't doubt for a minute. I met amazing people and made new friends, and I can't be more grateful for it."
Maxime
The geek of the duet, he is as creative as passionate about strategy, company culture and management. Full of enthusiasm and resolutely optimistic, he keeps the flame of ideas burning so that Pack Your Skills remains dynamic. With his dreams of changing the world and a parisian green and « bobo » (bourgeois-bohemian) lifestyle, he likes alternative places and attends events on social and solidarity economy as often as he can. When he needs to let go a bit, you’ll find him with a fresh beer in his hands, in a music gig or at the top of a mountain !
Isis
Bathing in the web and startup environment since she started her studies, she majored in Marketing and is passionate about self-actualization. The younger of the duet, she yet is the one who makes everything we imagine possible by going into details of the execution. She reads a lot, likes hiking in the nature, and cannot prevent herself from having several projects in mind. As she care about her 8-hours sleep and her personal balance, she prefers to sharpen her efectiveness rather than spending long ineffective hours of work.
