Description
Works updating: caring the wood and planting trees, building mud walls, animals care, english teaching (kids), gardening.
Hey, hello you ! We are Caro and Chris, Zion and Kiara. We were travelling around the world since a gorgeous time until all this virus craziness happened. Caro, then Chris & Caro were backpacking, doing hitchhiking, etc... The beautiful wildlife. Then kids arrived in 2017 and 2019 so we mainly stayed travelling in Europe by van until they will be able to carry a little backpack ;) When the virus arrived, we were crossing Sweden. Everything became complicated with borders, shops and people so we decided to enjoy the strange time to build our home. We bought an over 300 years old stone house on a big peace of land which were abandoned and this new adventure started.
Bretagne is a nice place full of culture, traditions, nice villages, forest and legends and history, and surrending by the see.
After using so much workaway for ourself we want to do it at our place to. We loved it so we expect people love it here too.
Our kids are homschooling with mainly their mother and we would be happy to have English or Spanish speakers around speaking with them.
We would like to settle for the next year and then travel half years around the world with kids
We love meeting people and sharing culture. It's really important for us to keep a part of our life into travel. So after having help so much families around the world we hope hosting great people who gonna share as much fun and joy as we did as helpers.
Coming here will be a bit of help and work but it's mostly a way to turn the wheel and host in return.
Come, you won't regret it !

Help

We are speaking English and Spanish but we do make some mistakes of course. So it could be great to have people around talking with us and our 2 kids in those languages correctly.
We just bought an old stone house so there are some renovations needed and some garden organisation required. Nothing complicated but some good hands will always be welcome
