Beschreibung
We are a family with four children aged 11, 10, 7 and 3. My husband is a financial adviser and his office is at home. I used to work in publishing and now take care of the children.
We live in a small village in Normandy, in a 18th century chateau. The nearest city is Argentan which is 15km away. We are surrounded by green land, our own forest and lakes where we swim and fish. We have sheep and chicken as well as a big dog, an airdale. We try to do take care of a vegetable garden. We are a closely nit family and have all meals together, lunch and dinner. We are looking for somebody who is eager to become a family member.
We are restoring the second floor where there is lots of plastering and painting to be done. You will never be alone but do tasks alongside one of us. We employ professional help for anything that we can not do ourselves. Ideally you understand a little bit of french. Help asked:
- gardening
- painting
- plastering
- general building help under supervision
5 hrs per day
You can take French lessons from a lady in Argentan or have her come to the house to give you the lesson. Or you can simply learn from the children!
We look forward to hearing form you!
