Beschreibung
This private place needs helping hands with daily work as it comes.
Ancient farmhouse in the South of France, based in the lovely hills that build the foreland to the Pyrénées. The house and its barn are surrounded by 2ha of land: a meadow, oak trees, orchards, a pond,... Currently there is Anne living here, 50 years old, a French-German business consultant, as well as Topo, the dog, 2 cats and 3 sheep. Friends come sometimes over to help.
I prefer to host people who have experience and references as a Workawayer.

Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
The property is based in the authentic countryside of Gascony and Comminges region in the French "Midi" (south of Toulouse). Original French food of high quality, old farmhouses, typical markets, lovely nature. Some historical places around such as Aurignac (medieval village) and the Gorges de la Save (run, cycle, swim, hike).
Languages spoken: French, German, English.
Most lunch and dinner meals are taken together, I am rather a good cook and like good conversations.
Arbeit
Around the house, depending on the season:
- clear out weeds, help refresh the vegetable garden
- pick fruits and transform them into jam and compote in August
- clear out brambles, trim hedges, cut wood or anything else you like
- help cleaning the barn and reorganise the leisure room (be creative)
In the house:
- help with smaller tasks inside with whatever you know to do
Autonomous skills are helpful as there won't be always a co-workawayer with you.

We can agree on speaking French or English or German during your stay. I have been a language teacher for some time. There are many historic places and natural sites such as Gorges de la Save, Montmaurin and Aurignac, for those who are interested in history and archaeology. By car, you can visit Saint Bertrand de Comminges (40min) and the higher Pyrénées (1 hour from here), with hiking tours going up to 3000m. I can help organise this for you on a week-end or you can just come along with me and my friends when we go hiking or to a market or visiting a nice place around here.
Unterkunft
You will have for yourself a renovated very cosy room in the house. Alternatively you can opt for the caravan or your own accomodation.
The house has electricity, heating, high-speed Internet and a modern bathroom.
Meals are mainly cooked with regional products, mostly from the garden, the local market or from an organic farm in the neighbourhood. We eat 80% vegetarian and sometimes omnivorous / flexitarian. 100% vegetarian would be no problem at all. If you have more complicated eating habits, please mention this when reaching out.
Provided by me: breakfast, lunch (rather quick meal), warm and complete dinner.
Was noch ...
It's a very rural area, no shop or public transport in the village (shops and markets at 15min car ride). I can pick you up at the train station (25min from here) or you come with your own car, van or bike).
Activities around: you can use a bike here (it is not electric!) for cycling in the soft hills around. You can enjoy the place itself that is very relaxing and its nice surroundings (view onto the Pyrénées). You can hike, climb and swim in the "Gorges de la Save" (at 6km) and discover the Pyrenean piedmont that is rather calm and restful.
Ideal for working nomads or travelling craftspersons or artists looking for a retreat.

I was there during the heat wave and I could go to the beautiful gorges de la save to cool down.
That's was a good life, eating outside at the evening and having some nice conversations.
The job is not too much demanding and there's a lot of different things to do.
