No business help is requested from workawayers and help requested is only with a non-profit part of the project of the artitic horse show. In summer, we're looking for workawayers who have riding experience for the security and a good exchange (you'll have to be handle horse independently even young or stallion). In winter a handyman who like to work out on fences or learn masonry tricks, like to tidy stools and stuffs... You Can ride in the forest alone if you are a good rider or have few lessons. You can also help to create costumes or fences etc...) It can be a complete formation if you can make a long stay, or an initiation if you stay a month. We can speack english, italian or little spanish and french of course. It's better for your stay if you can understand some words of french because all people here are not all speacking english. We prefer strangers to have a cultural exchange for us but we can also accept some french profil. We live in montain, winter is cold and wet, and the house is great to heat, you musn't be cautious.
