Description
We are a couple whose child went away to college last year :) We have moved to a small apartment with a neglected garden on the French Riviera in a quieter village with beautiful bays. Our place is right on one of the most charming of the beaches. We want to meet people and share great moments with them while working and enjoying vegetarian meals on our terrace. Our account has been inactive for 4 years and we are very happy to reactivate it now in a new place (June 2026).

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are a family with Bulgarian and Polish roots. Our daughter is studying in Finland. We practice yoga and organic gardening (if we don't panic to much about termites :). We can practice yoga together on our tarase or on the beach. Or just enjoy the morning coffee. I would be happy to show organic gardening and composting techniques as well as share vegetarian recipes. It would be pleasure to talk about Bulgarian culture and our experience of living in France, both in Burgundy and on the Riviera.

Help
Minor renovation projects, such as painting walls and windows, gardening both structurally (shou sugi ban of our raised beds, spreading stone grits) and with plants, such as cutting hedges and quilting seedlings. And ordinary housework. Our space is small and tiny things are more visible, so we are looking for a manually gifted person who values aesthetics and has an understanding of detail :)

Accommodation
When I'm alone, which happens regularly due to Michael's trips to work, I cordially invite you to our charming studio you will have it for your own for sleeping. There is a large terrace with a table for 6 and sun loungers. Our kitchen and bathroom with shower are small but very comfortable. All 2 minutes from the beach :) I will be happy to provide vegetarian meals. Cooking together will also be a great joy.
When Michael and I are here together, we would be happy to invite you to the nearby apartment, which is a 20-minute walk from us (3 last photos). There you will find a bedroom with a double bed, a living room with a double sofa and a kitchen, a bathroom with a shower and a balcony with a beautiful view of the nearby rock mass descending to the sea :) -
What else ...
The village has wonderful walking routes along the seaside promenades. Shop, bakery and cafes are 5 min walk. Nice is 20 min by bus.
Due to our frequent travel, we cannot host for more than a week and it is difficult for us to plan further in advance. -

My animals / pets
Papaya & Pompon
We are accompanied by two dogs: Papaya and Pompon. Papaya is a small enthusiastic dog always around. Our place is Pompon's second home. He is a dog with a difficult history. Being around requires patience and understanding because he is afraid of people.
