Description
Welcome to our beautiful Provençal estate where we offer a unique Workaway experience!
We are seeking help for the specific week from 3 July until 10 July 2023 and from 10 July until 17 July for various tasks, including refurbishment and maintenance work in and outside the house.
At this right moment there's no need to work in the organic vegetable garden.
We believe that Workaway is more fun when you can meet other young people, so we will be hosting up to 4 people at the same time. We have 4 grown-up children, only the youngest one (age 17) will be at home at during that specific week. We are looking forward to having the house radiate with youth and laughter. We offer a cultural exchange and learning opportunities as you will get to know the Provence, share meals with us, and enjoy beautiful evenings with games and activities such as petanque(bocce ball), ping-pong, doing music and board games.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We had our first Workaway experience 3 weeks in July and we enjoyed meeting young people from different parts of the world. We love the sound of laughter and look forward to sharing meals with you.
We have decided to take 4 workawayers at the same time. We prefer having young people who are travelling alone.
We receive a lot of request of WorkAwayers wanting to learn French. This is very good. Nevertheless, take into account that as we take 4 workawayers, and if you hang around together, you don't learn as much French as if you're alone in a French family. I prefer to write it so I dont disappoint you.
There will also be a french craftsman present who's english is not really fluent. He will be present during the day. He has knowledge in carpentry, plumbing, painting, repairing and fixing everything. You'll enjoy working with him. You will always be guided in the tasks. We see this as a group effort, where we have fun while we work, and we have fun during the breaks.
Benedicte is a health consultant and will be happy to show you to learn the healthy cooking.
We will also have plenty of time for leisure activities such as petanque, ping pong table and board games. Join us for unforgettable evenings with a beautiful view.

Hébergement
You will be staying in our very comfortable bastide which is in very good condition. You will probably enjoy your own private room or maybe share it with maximum one more person.
If you share our table, it is obvious that we offer food. In general, we eat vegetarian and are what we call flexible-vegetarian.
