    I speak fluent english and a bit of italian, as well as french, my native tongue. I have bought an old shepherd's house, in the middle of nowhere, 10 minutes away from my town, Anduze, in the Languedoc region in the south of France.
    I need help with basically everything to make the place livable.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    Anduze is a pretty town at the foothills of the Cevennes, 2 kms from the main attraction in the area, La Bambouseraie. There is also a steam train that goes to St Jean du Gard, a nice day trip. And lots of beautiful river spots, hiking, etc... There are also lots of local markets in the area, nice way to spend a morning and have a coffee with croissants!
    If you don't have transportation, I can pick you up from Ales train station.
