    I am Sylvie, yoga teacher. I am renovating an old house in the heart of the pretty Ariegeois village of La Bastide de Serou!
    I live with Lenny, my soon (3 years) , need help with renovations to the house and to the garden.
    I will offer yoga sessions and visits and walks in the surroundings.
    Glad to share slices of life with you soon!

    I suggest that workawayers work with me on small indoor or outdoor tasks depending on the weather. The works can be adapted to your profile and preferences. There is for example to do: laying wooden shelves, moving objects and boxes, making small repairs... I put at your disposal an independent room with the integrated bathroom. And I offer you yoga classes. Looking forward to talking about it in person.

    Je propose au workawayers de travailler avec moi sur des petits travaux en intérieur ou extérieur selon la météo. Les travaux peuvent s'adapter à votre profil et préférences. Il y a par exemple à faire : pose d'étagères en bois, déplacer des objets et cartons, faire des petites réparations....
    Je mets à votre disposition une chambre indépendante avec la salle de bain intégrée. Et je vous offre des cours de yoga.
    Au plaisir d'en parler de vive voix.

    I prefer that we share the table because it is a convivial moment and precious exchanges ⭐ but it can happen that we take them separately, at noon for example for reasons of work organization.

    Je préfère que nous partagions la table car c'est un moment convivial et d'échanges précieux ⭐ mais il peut arriver que nous les prenions séparément, le midi par exemple pour des raisons d'organisation du travail et étant avec mon bébé, j'ai un rythme qui s'adapte à lui ☀️.
