  Beschreibung

  We need help with gardening and some small fun projects around the house :)
  We are Ingeborg (37 - Dutch), Fabyan (31 - Canadian & French), Emma (3) and Leia (<1). Four years ago we moved to the southwest of France where we bought a property with two old stone homes overlooking fields, one of them will be for you :) (we have room for up to 2 guests and a young child). Before here, we were living in a beautiful city named Leiden, in The Netherlands. Although we enjoyed our time there, we decided we wanted to be more in nature, and sustainable and raise our future kid/s in the countryside. So we stopped our jobs and came here! Between the village of Monflanquin and Villereal (halfway between Bordeaux and Toulouse).
  
  We have both travelled much of the world, love the outdoors, gardening and doing our best to be sustainable. We also eat plant-based, like board games, cooking, walking, do it ourselves projects and spending time with our daughters. Also, we are big Harry Potter fans, what else is there to say :)
  
  Being new parents and house owners, we realize now how much less time we have to do gardening, creative projects, chores, cutting grass etc. And this is where we need help. To have some extra hands for the tasks in and around the house and the projects we are doing. 3-4 hours/day excluding weekends.
  
  You will have the furnished ivy-covered guest house to your selves (we otherwise rent it). There is only one bedroom, so we will be welcoming couples or solo travellers.
  
  The essentials are in the kitchen, but we do not provide food (we can give a lift to the groceries if you do not have a car). We like our privacy but from time to time we enjoy cooking and eating dinner or a lunch together to better know one another, or play a board game :)

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  We like to have a few meals together to get to know one another, but we also like our privacy so we can give our focus to our daughters. Fabyan is a designer and likes to repurpose old things or make new things from wood/other (you can learn to use some woodworking tools or the art of DIY with him). Ingeborg just launched an all-inclusive 5 day pregnancy retreat and also provides yoga classes, she is also really knowledgeable about nutrition. We both enjoy cooking and can share our favourite vegan recipes. And lots to learn from botany/gardening. We speak English, French and Dutch, so if you would like to improve one of these languages we can help.
  
  You would of course, also get a chance to see this beautiful part of France. You can visit the local markets and historic Bastide towns and many castles for sightseeing. There are hikes, trails, biking, and canoeing near us.

  Was noch ...

  We live by Saint Vivien, a small peaceful town, but the other surrounding villages (Monflanquin, Villereal, Bergerac, Villeneuve Sur Lot) are full of life during summer and people around are always open and helpful.
  
  We like playing board games, hiking and yoga/gym. You're always invited to join!
  
  The place is quite remote from public transport so a car comes in handy but you can use our bikes (we have two). Or join us for a lift to town from time to time. When you arrive/depart, we can pick you up from Bergerac or Villeneuve Sur Lot.
