Hello ! I am Fabien, 44..., living in a beautiful place in Dordogne between Perigueux and Bordeaux. I have a daughter who is 4 years old. The house is a selfmade wooden house.

My name is Hülya Meder aged 54. After long business life in Ankara I am now enjoying my retirement in this small village. My English is not good enough but I am trying to improve. My German is average. However I have a son ,19 years old who can speak French and English fluently and during the summer holiday. My husband is still working in Ankara that’s why I need help for mostly for gardening and for the house works. I need a person who is patient, energetic, hard-working, peaceful to work with in this rural area. If you think you're ready for this I'll be glad to be your host.

Hi, I am a new house owner enjoying a wonderful 30 year old house with great lake views. The house has multiple living spaces and I have been working slowly painting and gardening. I share the house with 2 new housemates (Rowan - dog and Berry - cat) who are a joy. I am a on the edge of Ennis with a rural feel (beside a lake) but also have easy access to the town centre (20 minute walk). If you like lakes, bringing a dog for walks, enjoy planning a garden, painting on rainy days then this workaway might suit you. It is a non-smoking house, whose owner is big into geography and ecoprojects. I always need to improve my French and Spanish if you would like to improve your English.

I am a well known artist and basketmaker, making a variety of arts and crafts, using natural materials and metal. I also teach and run community projects. We live a very basic lifestyle on a beautiful small Island off West Cork where we have a partly organic smallholding and garden. This is quite a new venture on approx 20 acres with chickens, ducks, pigs, horses, dogs and cats! We are currently making new food gardens from scratch, soil building, fencing, fixing water supplies, digging drains and clearing trees and scrub and there is always willow to harvest in the winter. We are also building animal shelters and workshops and later a house maybe! Accommodation is basic. Our camper van or bring a tent, no flush toilets, proper showers, washing machine or modern conveniences at all. We have some beautiful young horses that love attention and need teaching to pull and ride. We are hoping to get some longer term visitors who are committed and confident horse people who can help with them and are open to alternative training methods. The work here is varied and flexible including gardening, caring for the animals, farm improvement tasks, building, helping with the art, cooking and house chores. We are very open to new ideas and input as we are learning as we go along. We try to cook good food and bread everyday. We eat our own eggs, vegetables. and meat and local produce where possible but not 100% organic. Vegetarians welcome too. We eat and socialise together in the evenings and make our own entertainment. Musicians, singers, craftspeople, woodfolk, horse whisperers and all hardworkers especially welcome. TV watchers and computor or sugar addicts beware!!! This is good opportunity to meet people, share skills and help with a great project in a spectacular scenic location. Fishing, walking, heritage, etc etc
