Details
Description
I live in Lower Normandy, France and need help with odd jobs and general maintenance at my home.
I am a retired American expat, living in North West France. I am an active senior with a small well behaved dog and enjoying being retired for travel in Europe/France, immerse in the culture. The exchange I provide is your work for a large bedroom with private bath on a separate floor and one meal per day. You must have a car, it would be helpful if you speak some French but not necessary. Non Smoking household.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
Help around the house
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
This would be an opportunity to learn about life in a small medieval Village in France.
We can help each other learn the language or teach each other English/French.
There is nothing as fulfilling as a good day's work, camaraderie and completing projects.
Help
I am an active senior (77), but just not as agile or energetic as I once was. Your job would be to help with household chores, general maintenance, odd jobs, garden weeding, light yard cleanup, DIY projects and occasional errands.
