    Description

    Hello I am a french senior artists and I have recently moved into a lovely XIX th century stone house with a large garden , a brook and a wood on the edge of a authentic medieval village . Its a very friendly community of eleven nationalities that you will meet at the local café or at one of their musical evenings where bands come and play . There are many beautiful towns, villages and old markets to discover, hiking trails, the Lot and Célé valleys and the medieval city of Cahors 30 minutes away. You can practice quite a lot of sports in the area .
    The house has been restored but still needs some finishing work as for my art studio in the barn next to the house . I have begun designing a new garden and wish to make a cabin in a wood a mile away...
    I wish some help in the house , cooking would be appreciated , and outdoor in the garden or in the forest , and in artwork if you want to have a go ...
    There is a piano if you wish to play ...

    The house has been restored but still needs some work. I am also finishing my art studio in the barn next to the house . I have begun designing a new garden and wish to make funny cabins or tree houses in a wood a mile away.

    If you are an artist or wish to be involved in an art project would be happy if you join in or work on a personal project.
