Description
Hello Workawayers!
We are a young family of 4 (Elodie, Adrien, Lucas & Emma) living in Grasse (near Cannes, in Provence Côte d'Azur)!
Lucas, 3 years old, and Emma, 1, are our pride and joy!
My husband, Adrien, is a history teacher and I work at the French Agency for the Environment.
We live in a great house we adore but that needs loads of refurbishement! Same thing with the garden!!!
We both traveled a lot and we love meeting people from all around the world and speaking English!

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We will enjoy sharing our meals with you and talk about life, travels, places and people! We also love music, dancing, reading... especially foreign artists!
We have lived in the region for 12 years and we'd love to direct you towards our favorite places (best ice cream in Antibes, best beaches, bests hikes...).
As a history teacher, Adrien knows lots of things and loves to share!
He is also a great handy-man (I have yet to find something he can't do...) and you will learn lots of things refurbishing the house with us!
We are rather beginners in the garden and would love to learn from you! In general, we are keen to learn new skills, so please come and share!

I would love to improve my Spanish! And Adrien has lost most of his German... I have also always hoped to learn new languages!
Accommodation
Separate room with separate WC on the 2nd floor (we all live on the 1st floor). Shared bathroom.
What else ...
The house is 4 km away from the train station. The train will take you to Cannes in 30 minutes (the same train then goes to Antibes, Nice, Monaco...). We can lend you bicycles to go around and also take you to the train station or any place nearby whenever we are at home.
A canal passes in front of the house: it is a flat 10 km path along the water, very nice to walk and run!
