  Description

  Valérie and I, Olivier, are living at the end of an isolated tiny valley at the heart of the Natural Park of Baronnies Provençales. We have bought an house here that we wish to open as a welcoming and ecological area to host campers and travellers in a part of the building transformed in an independant cottage.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  Valérie and I speak English fluently and Spanish (for Valérie only). We both have travelled extensively (Asia, South America, Ethiopia, etc.), and love to meet people. We both have for example a profile on CS for more than 15 years... We enjoy Workaway also because we believe that
  In addition to cultural exchange about our life in our country or in other countries where we have lived, this mission will be an opportunity to learn about phyto-purification, rainwater harvesting or other installation we plan.

  Aide

  We are looking for good wills to help us in our outdoor works. For year 2024, it would mostly general support in gardening.
  Those missions are not very demanding physically, but remain manual work. The major part of the work will occur outside.
  Finally, those missions will be mostly performed in pair with Olivier and/or Valérie: you won't feel lonely or disoriented on what to do, and moreover we would enjoy the rewarding pleasure that joint work can provide as a type of exchange.
