Description
Hello, We are currently looking for people who can adapt to and like diy projects .
We are painting the inside of the boat and doing various tasks to keep the boat in good shape before we navigate to a new area . We may need to lift Wood or objects that are a bit heavy. We may also get dirty so bring shoes that can be dirty as well as clothes although we do have a few things that could come in handy.
During your stay we have easy access to paris by train and other towns nearby compiegne and pierrefonds . We are in a boat and fishermans village . There are hiking trails, deer, badgers , racoons, hedgehogs, and other animals as we are near the 3rd largest Forest in France .
You can swim in Lakes nearby during the Summer . There are châteauxs , museums and even vide grenier (if you like vintage objects , monument and history ) .
We also have a small market every wed in Thourotte where the boat is located.
There is also now the option of uber eats .
We provide breaksfast and lunch and a room.
The work day is short so you have the rest of the day to explore . We can discuss allergies etc in chat .
Ps If you know how to Weld it’s a huge plus or play guitar!
