Description
We are a couple 61 and 70, our kids have left the nest . We are used to travel around the world, so we are used to have contacts with other cultures. We leave in an old wine property house (1699) and we would welcome some help to keep our house in good condition. We leave in a small village in Alsace next to the German and Swiss bordure. Th village is located on the wine-road between the Vosges mountains and the wineyards.
