Description
Hello !
We are a young couple of 26 years old.
Roxane works in the wellness industry in Geneva, Switzerland, and I (Kevin) work in a leather goods company in France.
I (Kévin) am an engineer and a jack of all trades. I am in my 3rd apartment renovation.
I have good knowledge in electricity, mechanics and machining. My hobby is the creation of ecological objects that are used in everyday life.
Roxane is a trained beautician. She also likes to work on renovation projects.
She is very creative. Moreover one of her passions is the creation of small decorative objects in macramé.
We live in a beautiful country area in Haute-Savoie.
Near the mountains, the lakes, the Mont-Blanc, Annecy, Geneva, ...
You can enjoy the calm, the region which offers many activities, the nature and its landscapes.
Visit Annecy
Nicknamed the Venice of the Alps, Annecy is often cited among the most beautiful cities in France. Its old town can be discovered by strolling along the small canals and in the narrow streets. Another major asset of the city, you can take advantage of the lake of Annecy to walk in a dream setting or to do a multitude of activities. To continue your visit with an incredible view, take the height at the castle of Annecy.
Immerse yourself in the medieval atmosphere of the village of Yvoire
Classified among the most beautiful villages of France, Yvoire is located on the shores of Lake Geneva between the Alps and the Jura. With its castle, its ramparts and its fortified gates, this medieval village will make you travel back in history. You can enjoy a pleasant walk between small streets, port, restaurants and craft stores. Don't miss to visit the garden of the Five Senses to awaken all your senses!
Our house
We own the ground floor of an old mill divided into two apartments.
This one has a lot of charm (it still has its water course) and we would like to put it forward.
For our project, we would like to have the help of a manual person, polyvalent, handyman, to advance more quickly.
Here is a list of some of the work we would like to do with the help of a third person:
- The ceiling of our cellar is relatively low, we need help to dig in the ground, and evacuate the gravel.
- to arrange our outdoor space in order to create a garden lounge
- Helping to carry bulky materials.
- Participate in the maintenance of the house, cleaning and cooking.
You will have a personal room with storage.
A bicycle will also be provided to you to move around.
We will take advantage of this exchange to bring you a great experience in renovation, but also to improve your level of French and especially to spend good moments together.
