We are a couple with a 12 year old son two of months ago we moved to a dream spot on planet Earth, we live in a village south of Sápmi (better known as Lapland) where there is only 20 more people living. It is located in Asele Kommun, the place is surrounded by lakes, forests and wildlife. The tranquility is absolute. We own a farm and have in mind to develop an eco-project as there is much work we need some helping hands, we want to install solar panels and a windmill, a part of our house on the farm there is other outbuildings the largest one it is partly damaged but we still can save half of it, a sauna and a very cute small guest house , which we want to rent to tourists looking for a place to relax and forget the hustle and bustle, or fishermen, even in winter ice fishing is practiced. I did loads of traveling backpacking and hitch hiking, sleeping in beaches, parks, train and bus stations, even in the street. So did Allen. Meet a lot of people, learned, and had fun, in fact i have never stopped moving, my life it is a continuous adventure. Me and Allen are very open minded, sociable, great sense of humor and hospitality, and love to met people. We like music and all sort of arts.

My husband runs his own business and I work full time so we don't get much time to spend on the garden. We are currently undergoing some renovations and can't keep up with the garden. You need to like animals as we have cats, dogs and chickens. Our leisure time usually involves entertaining friends, listening to music, watching movies and beach in summer. My has and plays guitar and I belong to a large choral group. We love to cook and enjoy a good wine.

Bonjour! WE WOULD BE VERY HAPPY TO HAVE SOMEONE TO HELP US FROM 19 TO 29/30 OF MAY AND THE 2 LAST WEEKS OF JUNE FOR SOME RENOVATION OF THE POTTER STUDIO AND GARDENING. THANK YOU! We are a french family, Christian (57), Rosine (47) and Lili (10) with 2 delightful pets: sumo cat Max and Geisha, our enthusiastic young dog. We used to travel world wide and now have settled down in a 19th century old farm in the beautiful countryside of Pamiers, Ariège. I work as a teacher and Christian is a data consultant. Christian plays the guitar and I am interested in modeling clay. We are 'bons vivants' as we say in french. Easy to meet, we appreciate good company and love foreigners!
