    Description

    Hello! I'm Anthony, 26 years old, and I live with my partner Ani in the Landes countryside. I work for Stéphane, a very experienced carpenter who manages the property. Ani works remotely. We've traveled extensively as Workawayers and now want to offer our place as a cultural exchange. The place is beautiful and deserves more people to bring it to life. That's where I need your help! We're a small community renovating an old goat farm. The place is already very welcoming, surrounded by forest and a stream. We need a new person to join the community and help us with some tasks that we can't seem to fit into our schedules. The atmosphere is very relaxed; we value community living and accepting differences, but it's also important for us to have our own privacy and to give privacy to the Workawayers.

    Bonjour ! Je suis Anthony, 26 ans, je vis avec ma compagne Ani dans la campagne Landaise. Je travaille pour Stephane, un charpentier très expérimenté qui est le manager des lieux. Ani travaille en télétravail. Nous avons beaucoup voyagé comme workawayer avec Ani et souhaitons maintenant proposer notre lieu come échange culturelle. L'endroit est magnifique et mérite du monde pour le faire vivre. C'est là où j'ai besoin de vous ! Nous sommes une petite communauté en train de rénover une vielle ferme de chèvre. L'endroit est déjà très accueillant, entouré de forêt et de ruisseau. Nous avons besoin d'une nouvelle personne pour intégrer la communauté et nous aider pour certaines tâches que nous n'aurions pas à faire rentrer dans nos agendas. L'ambiance est très posée, vivre en communauté, accepté les différences mais c'est aussi important pour nous d'avoir notre intimité et de donner de l'intimité aux workawayers.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I'm French and I lived in Armenia for two years. I've traveled all over Europe and I'd love to listen to and share travel stories with you! Ani is Armenian, born in Turkmenistan to a Persian-Armenian family. Stéphane is German, and there's also Fuss, who is from Mali. Our friends come from very different backgrounds, from Wales to the Congo.

    We can teach you basic DIY and woodworking skills, as well as gardening and general maintenance. We have evenings where we all get together, sometimes we eat together, and we spend most of the day working together.

    Je suis français et j'ai vécu en Arménie pendant 2 ans, j'ai voyagé un peu partout en Europe et j'adorerai écouté et vous raconter des anecdotes de voyage ! Ani est arménienne, née au Turkmenistan d'une famille perse-arménienne. Stephane est allemand, il y a également Fuss qui est malien. Nos amis sont d'horizon très différent, du Pays de Galle au Congo.

    Nous pouvons vous apprendre des bases de bricolage et du travail de bois tout autant que le jardinage et l'entretien général, nous avons des soirées où nous nous rassemblons tous, parfois nous mangeons ensemble et nous passons la plupart des journée à travailler ensemble.
