  Description

  Hi everyone,
  
  If you enjoy a rural lifestyle of freedom with respect for Mother Earth, life, humans and animals maybe you will love to give us a helping hand
  
  We're André and Judith, after so many years a roaming way of life, we're living now at the camp-side in the south of France. Down to earth, simple and natural,
  We still present an alternative way of life and the spirit of traveling is all around here on our campement. The objective is making this world a lovely place for life, share good vibes and good moments, receive people and to co-create a warm and cosy place to feel good and feel welcome, becoming the more and more self-sufficiency in énergie, food, health and way of thinking, to make fun, music, art etc, and to live happy and simply in harmony with all what's around us,
  
  We can use motivated and practical individuals, helping hands in the garden, to help with decorating, to take care of the animals, to help with repairs, renovation projects, painting, baking bread, and so on and so on.
  There is always something to do! But no stress
  We're looking forward to starting this adventure with work away, to welcome/receive you here in this small part of paradise, we will love to know you and share our beautiful place!
  
  Have a wonderful day !

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We live near a very small village, there is all over nature around us; foxes, wild boar, deer, birds of prey and in the night you can hear the owls, frogs and the nightingale. We love art so we go to exhibitions, concerts and festivals if it's in the area. We love the rural market to do our shopping and meet people and friends, normally we go every week. Bigger villages with all what you need are at 17 km.
  When it's warm we go often to a lake to swim at 7km, you can go there also by bike for those without transport. We speak Dutch, French, English and Spanish. We love books so we've a lot (specially in Dutch and French but also in English and a little in Spanish).
  Créativité is all around her, we love it! André knows a lot about solar installations and is a passionate photographer. I can learn you to make your own laundry detergent, creams and lotions with flowers and plants, I like the herbs and natural remedies.
  We can learn you about an other way of living, we're a kind of artists of live :-)
