Description
Hello!
I have a house in Riez, in the middle of a village in Provence. I have to do some small tasks like painting, small repairs, cleaning (I rent the house partly to guests). I am also happy when someone comes to dog-sit and cooks or whatever you can and want to bring in.
I would welcome about 29 hours of help per week if you want to have room+own bathoroom and food in exchange. Less hours and no food included is very possibe too! However, it can be some hours each day or also be a few full days and a few days off as compensation. What exactly we can agree beforehand!
The lake is 15 minutes away by car, and the Gorges du Verdon are not far away either. Lots of nature, lots of peace and quietness.
There are direct buses from Marseille / Aix and Manosque or I can search you by car. Getting around here is rather difficult, but in the town itself there is everything you need to live. I live in the venter of the village, there is a market twice a week and all shops you need to survive.
I live here mostly alone (sometimges we are 2) and with the dog and the house is too big for me, so I would enjoy some company now and then I speak french and englisch but german is my mother tongue.
I can host one or 2 people or a family with one kid (but the dog is not very used to children)
I did Workaway myself, now it's my time to host :)

Own room with own bathroom, or a own studio. Both are fully equipped. We share the kitchen/dining room / salon. Depending on the amounth of hours you help, food will be included or not (2h > not included, 4h > included). I am able to cook but if you want to cook within your working hours that would be wonderful.

In your spare time you can do walks and hikes, go to the lake, visit the villages around. Gorges du Verdon are not far. By bus you can go to Greoux les Bains, Manosque, Aix en Provence, Marseille (even though Marseille is 2h ride).
