Fantastic experience here with Anne, Jerome and lovely "petit" Elise (and Taka, tu me entiendes mejor que nadie amiga). Everything was great in this amazing house, garden and surrounded area. My french, english, garden skills, baby-have-fun job, sport skills, and life is better now. Thank you again for everything.

Thank you Anne and Jerome for teaching me new french words, making amazing tiramisu and all the games of dominoes as well as everything else! They had a beautiful property which was great fun to explore and there was always something to do. I learnt so much and had a great experience, thank you!

What an amazing time I had in burgundy. I didn't speak any French when I got there, but the welcoming atmosphere of Anne, Jerome, and all the other workaways allowed me to improve my French quite a bit in just a short time. The countryside was beautiful and the work was rewarding. Getting to see the progress of restoring old structures and… read more

I could not be more positive about my time with Anne, Jérôme and Elise and their friends on the borders of Burgundy. Their outlook on life is extremely contagious, and their warm personalities make it difficult not to become part of the family.
