    Description

    I live in the south of France, not far from Aix-en-Provence. I have a farm that's a sanctuary for farm animals: sheep, goats, llamas, and rabbits. I'm currently quite ill and can no longer care for them as I'd like. Therefore, I'm looking for travelers who could help me occasionally with odd jobs around the farm, in the house, and with the animals. There's a bedroom with a bathroom and a separate living room, and I can provide food and accommodation. Thank you very much.


    je vis dans le sud de la France pas loin d'Aix-en-Provence. j'ai une ferme qui est un refuge pour animaux de ferme mouton chèvre lama lapin. je suis actuellement assez malade et je ne peux plus m'en occuper comme je le veux. je recherche donc des voyageurs qui pourraient m'aider ponctuellement à faire du bricolage dans la ferme dans la maison et avec les animaux. il y a une chambre avec salle de bain et un salon indépendant et je peux nourrir et héberger. merci beaucoup
