    Beschreibung

    We are a British couple, both early retired teachers of Design with one teenage 23 year old son who lives 1 hour away. We have been living in France and Switzerland for 16 years. We have our own English language teaching enterprise that we run from our home where we teach French students English through woodwork and other craft and cooking projects. Our pets are two inside/outside cats Ruby and Estella.
    Our home is a charming Bourbonnaise house that we have slowly renovated in between teaching.
    Paul is a very experienced woodworker / engineer. Deborah is a very keen gardener, jam maker and lover of all things creative. We are both very open, sociable people who have lived and worked in different parts of the world and welcome the chance to meet new people and learn about different cultures. We really enjoy the quiet rural life of France, the food and the wine and the chance in the evening to sit and appreciate the peace, tranquility and beauty around us.

    Arbeit

    We initially need help for a week or two in the garden. Especially in the month of April. We may also need help to demolish a small stone outbuilding and move the tiles and stone to another area of the garden.
    We need fit, strong and enthusiastic people, who are non-smoking and who have simple dietary needs (vegetarian is ok!)
    If you are able to offer help with cooking some meals that will be greatly appreciated.

    We live in a very small village that has limited facilities, so if you have your own transport that is a bonus. However if you are happy to go with us to occasional trips to the city of Moulins and our local town of Bourbon L'Archambault then you will be able to enjoy the interesting history of these places. We are happy to collect you and return you to Moulins railway station if necessary.
    We have a diverse group of friends, French, English, and Dutch who we see occasionally, but we are all busy with our own projects!
