    Description

    Hello,
    Update: we urgently need a nice workayer to help us and do some gardening and a help around the house. My mother (86 but still very energetic) will unfortunately be unable to walk for a few months.
    We are a French family running 3 chambres d'hôtes in a Château near the French Pyrénées.
    My mother lives in the main house, and I live with my son (21) in a detached house. We have and live pets: dogs and cats. We live in a small village. Big garden with swimming pool, river, nice walks in the area and 45 minutes from the center of Toulouse.
    We would like to find someone who he is really willing to help us with everything needed to be done mainly in the garden but also in the house . We are looking for a pet lover (there might be more animals than humans in the house this summer). 😊
    Our place is very peaceful and in a beautiful part of Occitanie.
    We will welcome our future workawayer as a member of the family !

    A bientôt!!
    Valérie
