Description
I live with my partner, and have plenty of friends around whom I mix with, so would introduce you to people. I am studying and have chosen to live in Vienne for the moment, as it is peaceful. You would be asked to do 4-5 hours work five days a week. However, you would get time to enjoy yourself as well. Plenty of food and wine and time to explore the surrounding area.
My partner is due, when the weather cools down, to start a project in the open front barn attached to the house, to make a one bedroom annexe and a large bedroom upstairs joined to the three bedrooms we already have.

Help
Hi, I live in South Vienne and have two cats and a wild cat. I have 3/4 of an acre and outbuildings. It is very beautiful with gorgeous walks nearby. I could do with an extra pair of hands. I have a spare bedroom, or a caravan that could be moved around, or a bedsit in the milking parlor if you prefer your privacy. The summers are long and usually hot. It has been mild until now when it has just begun to rain heavily. Internet access. TV cinema system. English is spoken with a little French.
I also do bioenergy healing, teach meditation, so you might like to join in when we meditate or learn how to meditate.

Accommodation
3-bed house, with many outbuildings. if bedrooms were full up with family guests, in the summertime the work away may have to go into the bedsit in the milking parlor, which is a bit rough and ready but livable and of course use all facilities in the main house.
What else ...
There are lots of lovely walks on your doorstep. A local lake and pubs and town is about 7 miles away. It is not a flat district, and tranquil. Good food and wine will be provided. There is also a spare bike if you want to use it to enjoy the local countryside.
