Informationen

Beschreibung
We are a Canadian Hungarian family of 2 adults and 2 boys (9 and 7), living in a renovated farmhouse on 2 hectares of rolling hills, 30 minutes from downtown Toulouse.

Julia has started a permaculture-based farm with a variety of fruit trees, and edible plants. There are some chickens, ducks and sheep as well.

We are on the route of Santiago de Compostella and run several gites on the property. We need your help in maintaining the gites, farming/gardening, and helping with the kids. Note: there is a possibility for taking French classes nearby, and we are happy to adjust to your schedule should you want to take them. We can also help to find local groups to pursue interests you may have outside the farm.

Note: Julia prefers to work with women. We have a dog, a black Labrador, very friendly.

Vom Host für Workawayer (Siri)

Siri has an interesting background, speaks several languages and was happy to share and teach us a bit of Finnish and Swedish. Despite her relative youth, she is very responsible and handled every kind of work Julia gave her with ease. She was independent and enterprising in the use of her free time, visiting many of the interesting things to see… read more

I had the best time staying with Julia,Peter, Emmanuel and Rafael in November and half of December! I helped Julia with cleaning the gites and some gardening which was really fun and never too hard. Julia is a pleasant person to work with!

Besides that the whole family is really communicative, funny and open-minded which I liked a lot! The boys… read more

We enjoyed meeting Yiota. She has a lot of experience in various workaway and au pair situations and was quickly able to adapt to the dynamic we have. She was very patient with our boys and able to communicate with them on their level in French and English. She helped maintain the gites and clean up after meals, and just generally being the third… read more

Hannah was a perfect fit for us and I think her attitude, skills and experience make her an excellent choice for anyone in this programme. She communicates clearly and reliably and can speak several languages. She quickly adapted to working with Julia outside or maintaining the gites. She was incredibly patient with our boys, and was great at… read more

Vom Workawayer (Hannah) für Host

I spent a little over three weeks with Julia, Peter, the kids and Max the lovely Labrador, and I couldn't have asked for a better first Workaway experience! They made me feel welcome from the moment I stepped into their home and I really felt like a part of the family by the time I left. They showed me kindness, care and a personal interest in who… read more I was, asking questions and engaging in conversation with me all the time. I also got to learn a bit about Hungarian culture, hear the language and even try a few dishes!

The work ranged day by day but the primary jobs were picking tomatoes and figs, preserving harvested food and cleaning the gîtes as guests came and went. Julia did a great job of communicating with me about what needed to be done that day and was really considerate of the hours, encouraging me to go explore a new town some afternoons and always giving weekends off. She was also so willing to teach and share, through her I learned about organic gardening, selling produce, running a small business and so much more. The candid conversations we had as we worked really showed me what a strong and hardworking person Julia is, I feel so lucky for the time we got to spend together!

I also really enjoyed time spent with Peter, he has an interesting background with a keen sense about the world. Hearing his ideas and sharing in conversation with him was a great part of my stay and I appreciated how he would always share bits of history with me about the surrounding area or various things we encountered.

Hanging out with Manu & Rafa was great as well, they're both friendly, smart, and hilarious! I won't forget our time spent playing in the pool, goofing around in the evenings or practicing for football games. I already miss being away from all the energy, excitement, and fun they brought everyday!

L'Isle-Jourdain was a beautiful village with a community that Julia and Peter were always willing to include me in. I got to meet many of their friends & neighbors and was always offered to join them on whatever errands or events they were going to for the day. I was excited to go explore other places in the region too and Julia & Peter were always so kind to bring me to or from the station. I got to visit Toulouse multiple times (just 1 euro by train) and also saw Auch and Montauban. I may have actually enjoyed L'Isle-Jourdain the most though, it's lake was nice for reading a book or having a picnic and the town center was fun to bike around on sunny days. Everyone I came across there was also so friendly!

I feel immensely grateful that I got to be a part of this family for a few weeks. They opened their home to me without hesitation and I always felt like I had a place there. I so hope I can see them again in the future and I won't forget the memories I made at the farm!

I would 100% recommend anyone to stay with them, you'll be in great hands!

Julia and Peter were our first hosts. At first, we were a bit insecure about idea of volunteering, but thanks to their kindness and hospitality, we felt not just as volunteers, but also as members of the family.
Cosy accomodation and privacy they provided us is one of the many advantages we experienced while living with them. Working with Julia… read more

We were happy to meet Amelia, and later her friend Luis who works at Airbus. Amelia wanted to practice her English and get ready for for exams. She was helpful to Julia in maintaining the gites during a busy period, and able to work independently. She had no problems arranging activities for her free time. Good Luck to you Amelia!

Last summer I spent a month living in the house of Julia and Peter. It was a rewarding experience, the place was beautiful and I had everything I needed in the house.

I totally recommend the Canadian-hangarian family near to Toulouse. I passed with them 1.5 month and for my stay they tried to organise things that makes my stay more interisting. So for example they offered my to play tennis one time a weeks in a group of the tennis club in L'Isle Jourdain. They also asked me to join their activities and they… read more
