    Description

    Rural france, swimming pool, excellent home cinema, dogs, cats, donkeys and my autistic highly intelligent teenage son who loves company from interesting people from interesting places! Enjoy the guest accommodation and help my son with his meals and be around for him to chat to, play games with etc. He absolutely loves geography, history and especially football! I work from home so will be there the majority of the time but would like time away for a few days at a time. I have friends that can be available if any help is needed and I'm not there too. He needs simple things like meals to be prepared ready for him and for someone to chat to on occasion. I would say no more than 2 hours a day if I'm not there, but when I am there, there would be no need for you to do anything normally. It would very much depend on how well you get on with him;-)

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    There are lots of places to see and go very pretty, here some great restaurants and bars. The sea is one hour drive away and we have a car you can borrow providing you have a drivers license when I am around we will likely go to restaurants bars et cetera also I enjoy Home cooking so when I’m around I will cook for you and look forward to learning about food from where you come from. My girlfriend is French and only speaks French so a great opportunity to improve your French. I am English but also speak French and my son speaks both languages too.
    I’m quite an accomplished DIYer, There’s not much I can’t turn my hand too except heavy manual work.

    You will need to be kind and gentle chatty and prepare meals for my son as well as yourself, for him - usually things like toast sandwiches and a simple evening meal, make sure the dogs are entertained by sitting outside with them walking them around the garden et cetera make sure the donkeys have got water and the cats have got food. Keep the place you stay tidy:-)
