    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    How could you not benefit from the Breton way of living?- simple but honest, we have certainly learnt a better way of living and sharing since moving here and raising our family.

    Help

    The help required could be anything, so you would have to be flexible and adapt, come with an open mind and motivated spirit.



    Workawayers give a helping hand two or three hours in the morning and after a long lunch break another couple of hours in the afternoon.
    We only cater for people who are flexible with dietary requirements




    The help can be physically demanding and sometimes learning new skills is challenging.
    We take good care of you but would also appreciate a hand with the daily chores like the dishes, sweeping up etc.
    You may need to bring old clothes, strong shoes,and work gloves.
