  Description

  We run a beautiful gay guesthouse located in the Languedoc region of the south of France.
  
  We are 30 minutes from beaches and 50 minutes from popular Montpellier. We're looking for someone who is outgoing, open minded and looking to help out with our summer season. You'll be working as part of a 5-man team (2 owners and 3 helpers) - and will be housed just around the corner from the guesthouse.
  
  A typical week here for our guests include drinks around the pool, kayaking tours, beach days, visiting wineries and exploring the many villages surrounding us.
  
  Duties include mainly guest interaction. These will be shared with a second helper and will be roughly 25 hours per week spread over 4 days. You will have 3 full days off and we try to arrange that they are consecutive so that you can explore the region. In exchange you will live in an apartment shared with the owners (now and then) and another helpers. You will also receive a weekly allowance for food.
  
  We also offer minimum wage.
  
  We look forward to hearing from you and welcoming you to the South of France.
