We live in the Charente, in the South West of France and would love some help, diverse requirements.
We are a lively English family who moved here more than 23 years ago and still have lots of exciting projects to do. Our youngest is still living at home and has just finished his final year at school. Adrian has always worked in aviation, however we are both working together on an exciting project in Angoulême: spa, yoga/pilates, alternative medicine centre amongst other things. We have lots of animals; 2 naughty dogs, sheep, goats, hens.Arten von Hilfe und Lernmöglichkeiten

Arbeit
Hello workawayers, seriously looking for some last minute help - predominantly working on a light building project (plaster board and painting), always things to do on the gardening front. There could be some cooking if someone was interested as team support. :) Actually it is quite variable. Looking forward to hearing from you
