Beschreibung
Hello!
I've been living in a particularly beautiful and friendly part of rural France for six years now and it's been a wonderful adventure! I moved here from the UK to create a simpler, more grounded, authentic lifestyle. I've improved my French and started to understand rural French culture, whilst renovating an old farm. The two stone houses here and the village house a 10 minutes drive away are now very comfortable and cosy, but there are always ongoing maintenance jobs to do and sometimes creative projects to work on (current list below).
I’d like to host people ⭐️IDEALLY WITH THEIR OWN TRANSPORT⭐️ to help with various tasks:
🖌️Outside jobs, for example painting the shutters on the gite, applying preserver to the field shelters and decking etc.
🔨There’s always fencing to check, add or repair!
👩🌾Tidying the gardens and pruning trees, helping with the veg/flower garden etc.
🦄 Helping me to look after the animals (a lovely horse, a donkey, 4 friendly dogs and 2 cats).
In return you would have sole use of the super cute gite on-site here (see pics). My house is completely separate. You’ll have an allocated amount of money each week so that you can shop for yourself. You are welcome to eat lunch or dinner a few times a week with me at my house (vegetarian), depending on the agreed timings of your hours (5 hours a day, 5 days a week).
A stay here might work well for a couple, a digital nomad or for those just wanting some time out to re-connect with themselves and nature in a peaceful place.
I'm happy, creative, love yoga, crafty stuff, horse riding and vegetarian cooking. I'm interested in people, cultures and collaborating. If you'd like to do a Workaway stay here and contribute your skills or learn new skills along the way, do get in touch!
Look forward to hearing from you.
Elizabeth. -

Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
There are lots of opportunities for creative collaboration here- I'm interested in developing ideas with others and love exchanging knowledge and experiences. It's a peaceful, happy place. I find it's enough to just 'be' here and soak up the natural surroundings. You'll leave feeling refreshed and definitely more grounded and relaxed. There are also daily opportunities to learn more about animal care.

Was noch ...
There are so many interesting places to explore in the area...Rochechouart- the chateau is now a contemporary gallery, Roman Baths at Cassiomagnus, historic Chalus Castle where Richard the Lionheart died, beautiful Brantome, Jumilhac le Grand, Bussiere-Galant with it's swim lake, several Voie Vert cycle tracks- I have bikes you can borrow, Thiviers- the market there is great. Limoges is just half an hour away.
Or you may prefer to walk in the woods, practice yoga, draw...or star gaze at night.
I hope that anyone staying here will respect me, my animals, my home and enjoy working on fun, varied projects whilst staying in a beautiful place. -
