  • Description

    Description

    Hi! I'm an organic baker and live in a small village close to the Pyrenees with 2 teenagers, 2 cats and a dog.
    I bake bread twice a week, and share my life between work, garden, and other activities like dancing, singing, or rock climbing, and my children of course!
    The village is close to a spa, and there's many possibilities fort hiking in the valley.

    I'm looking for sharing garden work, to make the place as beautiful as it can be!! There's always a lot to do with our luxuriant vegetation ;-)
    Depending on the seasons, gardening in the kitchen garden, mow grass, prune trees, weed, sow, cook fruits or vegetables... We may have hens again in few months ;-)
    We may work together, except while I'm working in the bakery (but you can come and learn if you're interested!)

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    According to the season, and the privacy needed, there's a caravan in the garden or a bedroom in the house.
    We may have at least 1 meal together per day.

    I provide food for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
    Here you'll eat organic food, mainly local, thanks to the beautiful market of Bagnères de Bigorre (each saturday).
    We may share cooking tasks... and recipes!

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    I have an ecological lifestyle and house.
    Here you may use eco-friendly products from the kitchen to the bathroom ;-)
    About transport:
    The train station is 7 kms from here.
    I can lend a bike, and hitch hicking is a good possibility to go to the nearest city ( spa + mountain + the best market ever!! )
