    Description

    Hello! I'm Françoise, retired and living on my own. I would love to welcome a Workawayer to help me. I live in the Commune Saint Orens Pouy Petit in the South West of France in the beautiful and peaceful region of " Le Gers ". It is countryside and my big garden needs maintenance!! . Help varies from doing some diy, take care of the house and help in the garden .

    I also have a dog and a few chickens. I wish to host someone not only because of the help needed, but also for a cultural exchange and to practise english or another language. I have 3 children who have now left the nest.

    The workaway can visit cities like Bordeaux and Toulouse as well as charming medieval villages. You can also try wine tasting in the area. Le Gers is famous for good food.
