Description
Hey there ! We are a farmer family living in the North of France (a dad - 51 & 2 kids - 22 & 18). I've been hosting couch-surfers for a long time which has been a great experience, but since they are usually just passing by for a few days, I am looking for a cultural exchange that would last a bit longer. :-)
The farm has 12 horses and at home, 3 cats.
- Mainly looking for help around the house (cooking & cleaning) as well as with the horses if you are knowledgable.
- I would like to host a workawayer during school vacation periods where I can be present & focus more on the farm and less on my other work.
Would you like to be our guest ?
- Our guest will sleep in a private room, and shared wc & shower with the children.
- I'm especially interested in the chance to have a language exchange between French and English, and general cultural discovery.
So, l propose to you to experience a french farmer life :-)
See you soon,
Arnaud

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

You will share meals with us and mprove your French, all while getting a taste of the authentic French farming life.
Help
On the farm l have a lot of work with my horses. I am also looking for help in cleaning our common areas, the kitchen, and helping prepare meals (lunch and dinner). This all will help me maintain the house and complete my hours on the farm. I sometimes have to work late & run out of time, so any help to make life easier would be appreciated !

As a small village, we have a bus that can take you to the nearest town as well as the big city. Feel free to explore the region as a whole, which although not obvious from the countryside, is definitely possible. We will help you navigate public transportation.
There are very interesting museums and historical sites plus the city of Amiens is accessible as well.
