Description
Living 25mins north of Pau in a village called Simacourbe.
A house made into 2 parts. You would be staying with me upstairs in 2 bed appartment. You would have a twin room but share the bathroom with me.
With great view of the Pyrenees from the garden & upstairs.
I wouldn't ask you to do anything that I was not prepared to do myself but unfortunately I have shoulder problems, heart & no longer able to do it on my own.
I really could do with some help to get it back to how it looked 2 years ago.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
If u have not done a lot of gardening before willing to show you how to use the tools etc & we would have a laugh doing all the jobs that need doing. I always feel if you make things fun time goes quicker & the jobs get done.
If you are looking to learn more about the English way of life or learn more English you could end up speaking English with a Bristolian accent, not a bad thing!
Help
Looking for person or a couple with good sense of humour to help me get the garden back under control strimming, cutting hedges lawn mowing a few DIY projects . Have lots of brambles to get rid of so using a strimmer is a must.

He worked very hard clearing brambles, cutting hedges painting the kitchen & very many more jobs. He can work unsupervised & worked well with me, I was probably hindering him though!
He is a great cook & has converted me to vegaterian cooking & I managed to only cook once.
I would have Harry back anytime &… read more
