  Description

  Gardeners here living in an 'urban farm' -among our rare plant collections. We have honey bee hives, chickens (just producing enough eggs and honey for our own use) , koi fish, and of course... cats! We'd love help with taking care of small tasks around the house and learning about other cultures.
  
  We will provide meals and healthy snacks.
  Unfortunately we don't have room or enough tasks around the house for couples.

  Accommodation

  A full private bedroom, shower and shared kitchen with just the two of us. We also like cooking and sharing food.
  
  Meals are a big part of our home life! My husband is French and loves to cook, so you can expect delicious, home-cooked meals—often with a European twist. We usually share meals together when possible, and we’re happy to accommodate different diets if we know in advance. We also have chickens, so fresh eggs are often on the menu. We provide three meals a day, and if for any reason we’re not around to eat together, we’ll make sure there are plenty of ingredients available for you to prepare something yourself.
