  Description

  Hello! I am a mother with my 11 year old and 3 year old daughters and we live in a big house on a big land in the middle of the French south ouest countryside near a beautiful little village called cordes sur ciel.
  I am a hot air balloon pilot and do commercial flights in the area. I leave my house at 5am and come back around 11am which means that I need someone to sleep at the house and to have breakfast with my daughters until I come back or if it’s a school day to take them to school and play school.
  
  I would love this place to be self sustainable someday, I have already done a lot to do up the house but there is still a lot to do!
  I have a studio where I would like to offer a room for balloon passengers so maybe help with that would great.
  
  Your help would be mostly taking the girls to school when I fly, helping me with guest house, helping me with the garden and house organising and cleaning.
  
  We have chickens and poneys and we are surrounded by nature. we have a little stream around the land that we can swim in if it gets warm and where we could create a liitle hang out beach.
  We also have a big pool!
  
  We shop at markets and can cook together sometimes and other times have our own space and rythme.
  
  there is a big space in the house that can be used for yoga, dance or music.
  we have a piano there.
  There are lots of little medieval villages to visit, countryside to explore, rivers, forest, cliffs, caves etc...
  
  My work depends on the weather which means that the help I need depends on it too. When I fly I need help with my daughters and with house, when I don’t we can visit the area and wonder around. I love being around people and have travelled a lot.
  
  Experience with vegetable growing and gardening would be great!
  I love to learn and to exchange cultures and knowledge.
  Don’t hesitate in contacting me, I would be very happy to exchange with you!
  Different lengths of time is possible.
