  • Description

    Description

    I am 69, Vegetarian. Have British, Irish and Swiss nationalities but no nationalist! I myself still work but not locally so some short timed house sitting may be required. There is over a hectare of unused land which I would like to bring back into use. I cannot cook well, I am told!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    My place is in rural Dordogne France which in itself attracts many nationals other than French. There are plenty of things going on especially in the summer months. If you walk out the door you will have to find a way to communicate. My doors have always been open to anyone from anywhere which is a result of my own travel experiences.

  • Help

    Help

    I have a relatively large garden which needs sorting. I am open as to what this help consists of. Pure Gardening and preparation of pathways, planting and clearing. If someone is willing and has a desire to be creative then that person would have the opportunity to express him/herself. Or on the other hand one could do some grafting and this would suffice.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    Transport links are poor, but when I am around am approachable and will transport people around to a point. There is Wifi. The Dordogne has an amazing history and sights to see. I would say its a place to chill out.
