Vom Workawayer (Dijon) für Host
I had a great time at the La Tuilerie. Marie and Cristophe are kind and welcoming souls and were very patient and helpful with my basic French. The work mainly involved tree/shrub pruning and clearing which worked well for me and took me back to my former life teenager growing up on a farm. They were both good at showing me what they wanted done
… read more and letting me deal with the specifics of achieving it. Aside from the work, I was well fed my entire time. Marie makes some delicious confiture (jam) from the garden fruits which I enjoyed every morning for breakfast. Christoph took me to his weekly football kick around which was great fun to play and all the guys there were trés genial! Several of their children visited while I was there and they were all friendly and welcoming like their parents. I would totally recommend a workaway here.

J’ai passé deux super semaines à Saint-Julien chez Marie, Christophe, leurs enfants et plein de leurs amis. Le temps s'est passé à toute vitesse entre les animaux adorables, le cadre magnifique, et surtout cette famille accueillante, pleine d’énergie et toujours de bonne humeur !

La communication était très claire, et Marie était toujours très sympa et encourageante. On a aussi beaucoup échangé sur nos cultures et nos vies, c’était hyper enrichissant… et en plus, ça m’a bien aidée à progresser en français !
Une expérience super chouette et très inspirante !

I had two lovely weeks with Marie and Christophor, and of course, monsieur le chat :)

The area was great for nature lovers. There are trails for walking, running, and biking. It is also easy to take the train to Dijon.Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

Je suis restée 10 jours chez la famille de Marie et Christophe. Je pense que c'est un lieu parfait pour un séjour de Workaway. C'est près de Dijon mais à la campagne avec l'ambiance tranquille.

Marie et Christophe sont les gens vraiment gentilles et je me suis sentie comme un membre de la famille pendant mon séjour entiére. Mes expériences préferées: les repas mangés ensemble (délicieux, simple, avec les legumes du jardin et chaque fois avec un dessert:), les conversations familiales (quand je n'ai pas compris, Marie m'a expliqué le sujet) et le pain de la maison (qui a senti trop bien!). Merci et j'espére qu'on se reverra bientôt. Julie

J'ai eu la chance de passer un peu plus de 2 semaines à la Tuilerie en Septembre dernier, juste après les vendanges.
Quel accueil chaleureux ! Et quelle belle propriété !

Un jardin magnifique, des moutons, des oiseaux, des poules, des fleurs, une chouette piscine, des tas de livres pour s'occuper, et un vélo pour visiter ! Le tout teinté des belles lumières d'automne !
Le travail consistait à finir la toiture de la petite chapelle, à creuser les tranchées pour les futurs plants, à aplatir les joints de la terrasse au burin ou encore à tondre la pelouse. En bref, un travail varié, gratifiant et dans un cadre royal !

Marie & Christoph hosted me for 10 days on the first leg of my long trip through France Spain and Portugal. They are lovely people, very welcoming, and very dedicated to their property. There is always something that needs to be done around there, so many projects overlapping at the same time, so be prepared to work hard! Marie will guide you

I had the pleasure to meet 2 of their children while i was there, who are full of energy! I also met some of their friends, as there are always guests passing by the house! I stayed in a hut outside the house, perfect for some privacy.
This is a great place to travel through Dijon, Burgundy and the see the countryside of France. Highly recommended!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

It was my first time in France and my first time in a workaway. What I was looking for was exactly what at the end I got. Since the first second I felt like in a fairytale. Marie and Christophe's place is such amazing. They have been very welcome with me and I felt immediatly like home. Marie has an amazing positive energy and she will treat you
… read more like a mum taking care of you all the time. Christophe is so polite and calm all the time, giving you always nice tips about everything. I was sleeping in the second house they have in my own room with bathroom and all the comfort. I helped them with the raspberry garden during the morning and during the free time they give you a bycicle and it's very nice going around discovering the beauty of the country house. I was super lucky because I met all the 5 kids and all together they are so beautiful, helping each other all the time and playing full of joy.
I couldn't ask more for this first experience, for sure I will come back to this wonderful family. Merci beaucoup beaucoup beaucoup. FlaviaDu kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

J'ai passé 1 semaine et demi dans la famille de Marie et Christophe et je ne pouvais espérer mieux pour un premier workaway!

Une famille vraiment gentille et accueillant!
J'ai passé un temps très agréable chez eux, la propriété est magnifique et j'ai surtout aimé les petits moutons. En plus, je n'ai jamais vu un jardin potager aussi grand, et on a mangé et transformé beaucoup de légumes frais du jardin, ce qui était une super expérience pour moi (on a aussi fait une

Quant au travail, j'ai surtout peint les fenêtres et portes de la maison, et aidé un peu avec les gîtes et le jardin. Comme la famille fait beaucoup de choses elle-même (ce que j'admire vraiment!), tout le monde était toujours très occupé. Du coup, j'avais pas mal de temps pour moi-même après le travail. J'en ai profité en lisant, me promenant etc., et en découvrant Dijon et Beaune le weekend.
Merci beaucoup pour vôtre gentillesse et cette opportunité superbe!
A truly kind and welcoming family!
I spent a lovely time here, the property is beautiful and I especially fell in love with the flock of little sheep. Apart from that, I have never seen such a big vegetable garden before, and we ate and processed a lot of fresh veggies, which was a great experience for me (we also made a delicious Crème de Marrons and I learnt how to peel chestnuts!). We only spoke French, so I could learn a lot, which was my goal for this stay.
I mostly painted the house's windows and doors, and helped a little bit with the guest house and the garden. Since the family does a lot of things themselves (which I really admire!), they were always quite busy. Therefore I had a lot of time to myself once I had finished work, which I profited from by reading, going for walks and discovering Dijon and Beaune on the weekends.
Thank you for your kindness and this amazing experience!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

This was my third Workaway experience and I must say, even though the previous ones were also amazing, my stay with Marie and Christophe surpassed them all with ease!
I've never met a family more welcoming, kind and grateful. From the moment I was picked up at the train station I felt right at home. Everyone goes above and beyond to make sure you

Marie takes great care in explaining the work, helping you and providing all the tools you might need. I mostly helped with renovating and painting windows, gathering some fruits, and doing some simple cleaning in the guest houses. Times are flexible, no matter how much or how long you choose to work - it will always be highly appreciated. But honestly, with such loving people around it comes to no effort trying to help them as much as you can. It's a very rewarding job and it doesn't really feel like work.
The homestay experience as well is amazing. Apart from being great people, the family also grows and prepares the most delicious fruits and vegetables. They even make their own honey! I have thoroughly enjoyed this "simple" and quiet living: working on the renovation projects during the day and spending time together over simple yet unforgettable dinners in the evening. Not to mention I made bff with the lovely family cat ;)
I can not thank Marie and Christophe enough for the experience they have given me, and all the things they have shared. It was not just a workaway, it was so much more and if only I could have guessed it would be this great, I would have stayed much, much longer!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.
