    Description

    I am Maxime, I live alone in a old family house in Lescun, the highest village in the Pyrénées Atlantiques and I want to renovate this house. I'm 30 years old, and I came back from a 1 year trip in south america where I used Workaway some times. I'm chill, organised and open minded. I need help to take care of the house with painting, refreshing, and cleaning. Now, I'm painting all the wood shutters. I offer free accomodation and food (3 meals/days) but I don't cook always (we will alternate).
    The house is on 3 floors : The ground floor is rented all the year to a local people, I live on the first floor and I rent the second floor for tourism. Lescun is beautiful little village surrounding of montains, it's calm and peacefull, perfect to enjoy the nature and to hike.
