Description
I'm a single Dad, living in a project 14th century village house, restoring it ,At times I organise working projects.
For now I'll try house sitting .
Basic infrastructure is already in place, so guests can be welcomed. I occasionally need help house sitting. Feeding plants, chickens, and my dog would be necessary.
My dog is well dressed, just like are the chickens ( free eggs!) -

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
There are some concert places in the area, most reachable with the train, or car
I can provide a car or a bike during the house sitting. Be welcome to arrive few days before so I can show you around . The area is a chill country village at the foot of the Pyrenees. Nice river near by, forests, and views. Super accessible by train, and a 20 km bike path. -
Help
I'm looking for a person or a couple, or a group of friends. who are capable to live in rudimentary conditions ( note house in restauration ) someone capable to light a fire , and keep en eye on it ;). Someone appreciative of medieval architecture, nature, garden. Also a dog lover, vegetarian or not ;). If you have a driver's licence I could provide a car, so you can visit a larger radius. Of course also a bike, where you can reach a supermarket or market within 5 Kms. So I guess a person who can bike ;).

There is a guest room in the house with an electric heater , should you not want to heat with the wood. However there is also a yourt in the garden, there you need to keep up the wood stove.

Can possibly accept pets
My dog is a female, she gets along with all dogs even at her home. She's only 2 but well trained and obedient. She would run after your cat if he runs away, if it doesn't she would respect it's privacy.

My animals / pets
Gilgamesh (5 years)
a gray cat that is a free roaming cat, he hangs out at neighbours who almost have adopted him. He usually returns during winter months. He is tolerant of my dog, though she might want too much cuttles, than he would just hiss her away.
36 (1 year)
I have a group of chickens and newly born chicks, ranging from 2years to 2 weeks, Also 3 ducks that are supposed to eat the slugs in my garden. Free regular eggs in exchange of feeding them regularly. They need to be opened and closed in the chicken coup. Water and grains levels need to be kept up
Maka (2 years)
A well trained female mixed race dog, that has shepherd dog instincts. Her play time is jumping barking and pinching your legs, so don't get her too excited ;) she's trained in polish so I'll give you the command list before leaving you with her. She reacts to whistle for returning on a leash, so better know how to whistle before letting her loose ;)
